Switch on the Ad Unit locations you'd like, then paste your ad code in the textboxes below. If you use "between post" ads, make sure to configure the gap between ads in the extension settings page. ⚠️ If you use Google AdSense, only insert the tag into the textbox. ⚠️ The text boxes do not support tags. These scripts will not be executed if you enter them into the text boxes, due to how Mithril functions. Links Packagist GitHub Discuss

Walys I get it. I just curious what capabilities that gives us over the current implementation. Or is it a purely design look?

MikeJones Or is it a purely design look?

Not sure about this.
Only view this curious Ads in Tapatalk app and if it's posible maybe a good option to implement in this extension for Flarum.

@davwheat whats the best way to make ads responsive when the ins has already responsive code?

when resizing the browser, that what looks like ☹️

Walys

Braden
Mmmm..maybe the problem is the cache navigator?
If your resize the nav tab and then F5 to refresh have the same problem?

Braden I am using this.

Advertising feature: In-feed - No description

<style>
.example_responsive_1 { margin-top: 10px; width: 320px; height: 88px; }
@media(min-width: 500px) { .example_responsive_1 { width: 468px; height: 70px; } }
@media(min-width: 800px) { .example_responsive_1 { width: 728px; height: 90px; } }
</style>
<ins class="adsbygoogle example_responsive_1" style="display:block" data-ad-format="fluid" ........... ></ins>

Braden

I think i solved the issue.

Walys If your resize the nav tab and then F5 to refresh have the same problem?

If i did that, they would have load correctly with the resized screen 😅✅

Umutcan CSS master! Thanks for sharing 👍
The problem is to know the actual sizes for in-between ads, since sometime they appear big-rectangle and other times as big-square. 😂It would've been simple to create a responsive code

davwheat this is a amazing extension! One issue with it is that it causes widgets to not load if you place an ad unit on the side bar. Otherwise, I love this!

MikeJones

It's a slow trudge but the website is slowly growing. Hoping by the end of this year or maybe next year I can have ads pay for all the hosting fees 🤞

Adsense Rev

The greyed out line is last year's numbers. In June I changed my domain name so took a temporary hit on traffic. I am just about out of that slump now.

Braden

MikeJones i like this spirit bro. As the developers are continuing with supplying to us better upgrades, am also hoping one day we will accomplish our dreams.

I cant wait to see mobile version speeds improve since its likely computers usage will drop in this new generation.

MikeJones damn, how many click and impression you get a month?

MikeJones any tips on how to grow a community, mine has been going sideway for a while. People read and found our post on Google, but rarely join discussion

MikeJones

huuduy216 I don't want to hijack this thread too much, but to be honest not sure I have too many good tips. If you check out my flarum, I don't have a whole lot of people registering and participating either....

Most of my traffic comes from Google search results for my trail guides. I did create another traffic funnel from YouTube. I started a YouTube Channel with my wife and that has been sending some decent traffic back to my flarum as well.

angela044

Could you add an option to not show ads to registered users?

davwheat

angela044 I could, but the extension is considered bugfixes only from my point of view. I don't have enough time to justify adding new features and such to it without a very good excuse at the moment.

Braden

My prediction in future, this extension would advance, in a way that we would be able to run our own ads in discussion. Like shuffling and serving uploaded ad banners from rot dir, listening to small script html codes 😃

HasanMerkit

angela044 i have better idea, may be adding "Don't see ads" permission is good idea. Admin can disable ads for some users like Moderators, Premium Users and etc.

Walys

HasanMerkit +1 good point!
