XF 2.1 AdSense

DaveM · Aug 1, 2019

I am busy signing up for Google AdSense but now I need to take this code and past it into my header as per the steps below, I have no idea how to do this however?

Connect your site to AdSense
It's as easy as copying and pasting.

1 Copy the code below
2 Paste it into the HTML of https://triumphtalk.com, between the <head> and </head> tags
3 Check the box and click done when you finish

Code:

<script async src="https://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>
<script>
  (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({
    google_ad_client: "ca-pub-5280728462676477",
    enable_page_level_ads: true
  });
</script>

In the ACP go to Advertising and it's there you create your advertisements and put the code. That will then display the code in the correct location for Google (ie no need to worry about locating the head tags).

Thanks funny I did that then thought it was not correct so this is why I asked here.

Edit your style's PAGE_CONTAINER template and add that right before the close of the tag, </head>.

Then, if you haven't already, upload your ads.txt file to complete the steps. If already approved, ads should start appearing within 20 minutes. If not, up to a couple days.

There's no need to do this, the Advertisements in the ACP automatically do this for you.

What position is that? Container header?

I ask cause mine is in PAGE_HEADER and excluded from showing to some user groups. If the position is the same, that'd cut down on some of my conditionals. Thanks!

Any position (so yes, container header is included). The Adverts system was designed so that you can simply put in your code in to the ad positions you create in the ACP and that will then ensure any code appears in the correct position (ie in this case, in between the <head> tags) and there's no need to insert the code directly into the PAGE_HEADER template. In addition, you can control with the Adverts system exactly who sees the ads, whether that be guests only and/or certain user groups. On my site guests and newly registered users see the adverts but longer term members do not.

Hello, so we only need to create a position for Container header and add the verification code into it, right ?

In Advertising in the ACP, just create an advert, choose its position from the dropdown and paste the Google Adsense code in the HTML section. That's it, no need to mess around with existing XenForo templates.
