While I was playing around with the Google Adsense on my site, I found a way to have the Adsense Ads included inside the "Related Links" box instead of outdise it with tables. If you aren't sure what exactly I am talking about, go here:

Here is the code I used, and where to place it.

-----[ OPEN ] -----

modules/News/article.php


-----[ FIND ] -----

themesidebox($boxtitle, $boxstuff);


-----[ ON A NEW LINE ABOVE ADD ] -----

$boxstuff .= "<br><center><s cript type=\"text/javasc ript\"><!--\n";
$boxstuff .= "google_ad_client = \"YourAdsenseClientID\";\n";
$boxstuff .= "google_ad_width = 120;\n";
$boxstuff .= "google_ad_height = 600;\n";
$boxstuff .= "google_ad_format = \"120x600_as\";\n";
$boxstuff .= "google_ad_channel =\"\";\n";
$boxstuff .= "google_color_border = \"669966\";\n";
$boxstuff .= "google_color_bg = \"99CC99\";\n";
$boxstuff .= "google_color_link = \"000000\";\n";
$boxstuff .= "google_color_url = \"00008B\";\n";
$boxstuff .= "google_color_text = \"336633\";\n";
$boxstuff .= "//--></s cript>\n";
$boxstuff .= "<s cript type=\"text/javas cript\"\n";
$boxstuff .= "src=\"http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js\">\n";
$boxstuff .= "</s cript></center><br>\n";


Remove the space between the "s" and "c" in the words "script." You will also have to change the colors to fit your site. I just liked the idea of having it look like part of the block instead of having it as a new table.

Comments are welcome

That is a nice mod, I like that better than the old way of having it in its own frame that never did match the theme. It fits alot better that way.. good job!

That line apears twice on that page, can you descibe which one to look for ?

Also I am not to sure of how you meant to place it, do you mean to place the adsense code just before that line ?

Forgive me, I am a bit new to php.

Thanks!

Here's the way it looks in my article.php

$row9 = $db->sql_fetchrow($db->sql_query("select sid, title from ".$prefix."_stories where topic='$topic' $querylang order by counter desc limit 0,1"));
$topstory = intval($row9['sid']);
$ttitle = stripslashes(check_html($row9['title'], "nohtml"));

$boxstuff .= "<a href=\"modules.php?name=$module_name&file=article&sid=$topstory\">$ttitle</a></font></center><br>\n";

$boxstuff .= "<br><center><s cript type=\"text/javas cript\"><!--\n";
$boxstuff .= "google_ad_client = \"pub-6546123987506640\";\n";
$boxstuff .= "google_ad_width = 120;\n";
$boxstuff .= "google_ad_height = 600;\n";
$boxstuff .= "google_ad_format = \"120x600_as\";\n";
$boxstuff .= "google_ad_channel =\"\";\n";
$boxstuff .= "google_color_border = \"000000\";\n";
$boxstuff .= "google_color_bg = \"848484\";\n";
$boxstuff .= "google_color_link = \"000000\";\n";
$boxstuff .= "google_color_url = \"FF0000\";\n";
$boxstuff .= "google_color_text = \"FFFFFF\";\n";
$boxstuff .= "//--></s cript>\n";
$boxstuff .= "<s cript type=\"text/javascript\"\n";
$boxstuff .= "src=\"http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js\">\n";
$boxstuff .= "</s cript></center><br>\n";

themesidebox($boxtitle, $boxstuff);


Sorry about that. I didn't realize the code appeared twice.

Instead of using the actual color hex use the theme $bgcolor1, $bgcolor2, $textcolor1 so it matches each theme.

Where exactly? Something like this?:

$boxstuff .= "google_color_border = \"000000\";\n";
$boxstuff .= "google_color_bg = \"$bgcolor1\";\n";
$boxstuff .= "google_color_link = \"000000\";\n";
$boxstuff .= "google_color_url = \"FF0000\";\n";
$boxstuff .= "google_color_text = \"$textcolor1\";\n";


Where would the $bgcolor2 go in this instance. Forgive my ignorance but I am terrible with themes and colors!! icon_redface.gif
