Great advce – I tried it – works perfect! Thank you!!

I have exactly the same question like Shawn. I tried to copy the same code after the first one and only replaced the count number (from 0 to 2), but in that case no ads appear on the screen at all.

What could be the correct code in that case?

That’s what I figured but I tried that and it broke the page.

Shawn,

I’ve not tested this, but I think I would just add a second copy with the other ad in it but change the PHP count to be 1 or 2 or whatever.

So, add another one that starts with:

What would the code look like if we wanted an ad after the first *and* second posts?

ahh ok, thanks john

i usually have adsense ad on my content area, and if i have about 10 post on main page, with 3 max adsense banner, there will be a blank gap on 4th posting … so that’s why i asked

i use adsense deluxe plugin myself but it does not have option to limit how many banners should appear on front page and such

still a good tip

Well, actually, the count ==0 just basically tells the system to place the ad after the first post on the homepage, and before the second one (that is, before the count increments to #1). If you change it to 2, it will put it before the third one, but there will still be only one ad on the page.

So, basically you just need to put the ad code into your theme manually in two other places. If you can hold off on doing it for just a short while, I’m going to work with Donncha to author a comprehensive post regarding who, how, what, when, and why to monetize your blog. I’d guess it will be 1 to 2 weeks max and we’ll tell you what plugins to use, where to put the code, etc.

questions: adsense only allow 3 banners, so what if i want to have 3 adsense ads instead of one john?

i increase the “$count == 2″

I just rewrote some of the code in the Adsense Injection plugin… I like that plugin a lot, makes my life easier…

Here you go, this should work:

if ($count == 0) :
if( is_searchengine_user() ) {
// big nasty advert
} elseif( is_regular_user() == false ) {
// smaller less nasty advert
}
endif; $count++;

Ok. So I was going to add the code to my example from this post, but I just realized that I don’t know how!

I don’t think it’s actually possible to nest PHP commands, so could you give me an example of how to add your suggested code here to my code above in the post?

Thanks once again!

Adding this plugin is very much on my to-do list. I think it’s critical to ‘thank’ readers by displaying ads very selectively and, if possible, not at all to loyal readers.

That is pretty straight forward. I thought there was much more code required to achieve this.

What I usually do is something like
1. Check if the user came from a search engine
2. If not, then check if they’re not a regular user
3. err, no number 3.

So:
if( is_searchengine_user() ) {
// big nasty advert
} elseif( is_regular_user() == false ) {
// smaller less nasty advert
}

If you do the search engine check you don’t need to check for the age of the post. That’s included in the first check :)
