Google Ads

[ineedhelp]

I'm thinking of using Google Ads on my forum, Google AdSense.

Can you recommend which add-on to use for adding ad codes to the forum.

For those who use Google Ads, how much roughly can you earn per month?

What happens if you click on the ads yourself?

Ads are all text based...

How can I get normal banner ads with images using Google Ads?

Thanks.

Is there any code I can insert into each ad_ template which contain google ad codes, so that the ads are hidden from me (super admin), I've clicked on two ads by mistake in 5 days of setting up google ads.

Even though google terms stats, it understands that publishers might click on their own ads in error at times..... I just want to avoid doing it at all.

Thanks.

You can use the xen conditional to wrap around the code to stop is from being displayed to certain groups:

EG: Admin/Mod/Premium Member groups for me:

<xen:if is="!{xen:helper ismemberof, $visitor, 6, 4, 3}">
ADD CODE
</xen:if>

Excellent, that's one unnecessary worry off my mind! Thanks!

Can I edit the code so it only prevents me from viewing the ads, not usergroups ?

Have a read through the FAQ:

Lots of different examples depending on what you want to do specifically.

<xen:if is="!{$visitor.user_id} == 1">
CODE
</xen:if>

Thanks, this seems to have done the trick!

I got the above code wrong, it hid the ads from everyone.

This code works.

<xen:if is="{$visitor.user_id} != 1">
CODE
</xen:if>
