Adsense on my forum

[jlpk007]

My adsense just doesnt appear on my forum
I know this has been asked many time and i have been following the thread on how to setup.

I have tried the following method

1) go to display->generalities paste my adsense code in homepage. Nothing appear
2) create a new widget copy the adsense code inside. Nothing appear
3) also tried editing the template over_footer and overall_header_new (insert the code in the beginning of the file)

None of the above works for me.May i ask what did i missed out?
Thanks!

the code i have
=================================
<script type="text/javascript"><!--
google_ad_client = "pub-7813517241059466";
/* 728x90, created 7/10/09 */
google_ad_slot = "3864935995";
google_ad_width = 728;
google_ad_height = 90;
//-->
</script>
<script type="text/javascript"
src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js">
============================
</script>

Did you use HTML Pages management at all? That's how I got it to work on one of my old forums. I can walk you through the steps if you haven't. From what i'm reading it sounds like you haven't.

A quick brief thing is,

Go to your Admin Panel then Modules->HTML PAGE MANAGMENT-> Make a page labeled something like ADSENSE ADS and insert your adsense code. Copy the link that it provides you for the website where the adsense would be displayed(basically just go back to HTML page management and you should easily be able to find it.)

Then go to Display->General-> Overall-footer

Code:


<center><iframe width="592" height="118" src="insert the HTML link you made in HTML pages management" frameborder="1" scrolling="no" allowTransparency="0"></iframe></center>

Post that right after the <!-- END html_validation -->

Change the height and width to fit that of your adsense AD that you chose.

For the overall_header_new copy the same exact code.

This only works in PHPBB2 but if you do it right should display the adsense AD's on every page.

Thanks in advance
After following the instruction you gave, i have a big white box at the footer with nothing displayed.

Well, you do have to give it a while til' google crawls your page and until then it could be public AD's or simply blank. Not sure why it won't work for you. I did it just fine with mine sooo so long ago.

P.S. I see the AD's now(they took a while to load for some reason). Maybe it's you?

You also might want to add your keywords in. Or are those the AD's you're trying to get?

Oh, and sorry. Wasn't thinking. Put the code I provided to ya' after this,

Code:

   <td align="{MENU_POSITION}"{MENU_NOWRAP}>{GENERATED_NAV_BAR}</td>
               </tr>
            </table>

in your overall_header_new to have it in the right place and to be there on every page. I wasn't thinking properly earlier.

do you have your html enabled on the forum and in your profile settings as well?

i just added the code to my home page messages and it works fine.

be sure you html is enabled.
Admin panel>Messages and email>configuration> allow html to yes and hit save. no go to your profile preferences and select always allow html and hit save.

like i said the code works for me.
check it out.
