Can anyone perhaps tell me where :confused: exactly in my wordpress site I need to paste my adsense code? I'm still sort of a newbie when it comes to HTML so as much detail as possible would be great!

    hmmmm......now I'm confused. Excuse my ignorance but why must I create a new post to enter the adense code when all I want to do is add it to my existing site?

    Here's a quick tip...

    -Log in to your wordpress.
    -click appearance and then editor
    -then click single post (single.php) on the right menu
    -look for this line "<div class="entry group">" then enter the code below that line, hitting enter once will do.
    -Then paste this:
    <div style="display:block;float:left;margin: 0px;">
    ENTER YOUR ADSENSE CODE HERE
    </div>


    You'll then be seeing adsense to all your post. I recommend using the adsense Size: 300x250 or any square, but the bigger the better.

    You can also do this to every page.. likewise, you can simply use sidebar text/html widget to do it easily..

    Hope it helps...

    or, you can go to your widgets settings and add a widget box (especially the one that is capable of handling html and javascript) for your Adsense unit. When you create the widget, just paste your adsense code on the text area provide, save and you already have your adsense ads appearing on where you positioned the widget, most probably on the sidebar.

      Just use wordpress plugin called "easy adsense pro".
      Its easy to handle, control "side widget ads" and "post" ads.
      Suppress ads where you dont want them. Easy and Simple!

        I've build a custom wordpress template for all my adsense sites and within the template I've included specific adsense code.

        For example code embedded into:

        • Header.php
        • single.php
        • index.php
        • etc
        This way all your new posts and pages will include relevant adsense code.

        Just googgle "add adsense to wordpress template" and I'm sure you'll find lots of good tutorials.

        Cheers

        Phil

  • WordPress is based on PHP and CSS not HTML.

    Learning a few basics would probably be helpful.

    There are many different ways to put Adsense on a WordPress Blog. The most important thing is to determine your Template Layout first. Where do you want to put the ads? Once you know this you can decide the "how".

    There are several good free plugins that can help you manage Adsense. You can paste directly into the template which you should probably avoid for now with your level of knowledge.

    You can also simply paste code into widgets.

    But before you do any of that you really need to figure out where you want your ads to appear.

    I do a lot of wordpress and depending on the site the method I use changes.

    I'd agree with Ardley, to it the easy way and get an Adsense ready theme. CTR-Theme, BlueSense, HeatMap, or ClickBump will all work. Do a quick search on the Warrior Forum for reviews about CTR-Theme and ClickBump and you will quickly understand why you might want to go that way..

    Yes, I agree with all above. You can paste directly into php code (not recommend for new players), add code to text widgets and install plugins,
    ...but...
    If you are new to this you will find there are a few of us round here who have already created WordPress themes that will make the job much much easier for you.

    With this approach the figuring out is already done, all you have to do is cut and paste from your adsense account into the theme options directly.
