Ad location and redirecting from log in screen to portal

Is it possible to change where to put the ads in a forum? Honestly, I'm okay with ads, but not when it's annoying and in the top of the forums and portal. I want it maybe on a sidebar if I can add it there or perhaps in the footer. I don't want it to interfere with the overall content if that's possible.

And,

I have a "Login" widget on my portal, which is the only widget in my portal that allows guests to view it. So when I log out and enter my forum, the portal shows up with the login widget. I put my information in, and when I log in successfully, I'm redirected to the forums, not the portal. Is there a way to make it so it goes to portal directly?

Thank you for your help!

I'm assuming this isn't possible? The advertisement location?
