AdSense code as a banner ad?

[kb9k]

Is there a way to use Google AdSense code in side box area as banner add? When I create new banner it doesn't show it.

Thanks

What version of Zen Cart are you using?

Are you just entering the code in the HTML area of the Banner?

Did you assign it to a specific Banner Group?

Is that Banner Group then set up in the Configuration ... Layout Settings ... for one of the Banner areas?

Zen-Cart: v1.3.9g
I am entering code in the HTML area of the Banner.

Q: Did you assign it to a specific Banner Group?
A: Yes

Q: Is that Banner Group then set up in the Configuration ... Layout Settings ... for one of the Banner areas?
A: Yes

It shows the html/java script code of the AdSense add.

Please peek at post #52 of this thread:
http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=165081

and follow the instructions on how to fix this ...

I did this already and it helped only for Define Page. It is NOT fixing the problem for AdSense code in the side box.

Thanks

On a practical level...

I don't see the sense of adding google adverts to your webshop.

1. You work very hard getting shoppers to your online store.
2. As they get there, they are invited to go elsewhere to spend their money.

It's like standing outside your "real" shop, and as customers try to enter the door, you are standing there saying:

"Sorry... don't come into my shop... Go over the road to ACME LTD whose products are better and prices are cheaper!"

Hmmm...

At this moment I do not need your "On a practical level" advice. If you know please let me know if you don't know than please do not act like you are the smartest guy on the planet.

kb9k ... for giggles and grins ... could you:

1 check post #52 and make sure that you have the most current code for that file on the server as it has been updated a few times

2 go to the Tools ... Banner Manager ... and edit your broken banner and just hit update on it ...

3 go to the Tools ... Developers Tool Kit ... and in the bottom input box do a search on:
$my_whitelist

select Catalog/Admin ... and click search ...

Is the file in the correct directory?
/admin/includes/extra_configures/extra_white_list.php

NOTE: the /admin will be different as you have, of course, renamed your /admin to a secret, more secure name ...

Does the line for the:
$my_whitelist

read the correct, current code?

I don't have to "act" like the smartest guy on the planet.

I am the smartest guy in the universe.

(Everyone knows that about me... just ask them).
