Please help with Adsense

briman1970 · 08-02-2007, 11:42 PM

I need some help figuring out how to set up Adsense on two sites I have purchased. I don't know how/where to put the code! I am a total noob at development.

Are the sites live that we can see? Are the files html, php, something else?

Yes the sites are live. One of them still has the old owners adsense running on it. I just can't find where to put the code. I can't even find the html file on them when I'm in FTP looking at the files.

I think the arcade one is set up on a subdomain of automobile-book.com in my hosting (PolurNet) if that makes any difference.

Looking at the source code for automobile-book it's already in there, but isn't displaying ads for some reason. The javascript includes "google_alternate_color = "ffffff";" which is forcing it to white under the banner. The google search box is working.

Look in index.php and a few lines below the <body> tag you should see the code to change. If it's not there, it's going to have in its place some type of file include - something like <? include("ads.php") ?>. If it says that look for that file and amend it.

For the arcade look for a file like ads.tpl, sponsor.tpl or some such thing. Much like the other website.

If you still can't find it send me the files and I can look for you.

And, um, that arcade website code is atrocious.
