Has anyone here implemented Google Adsense Auto Ads? Might be too early to tell if it is working well because it seems to have just been introduced this week, but just curious on thoughts.

https://adsense.googleblog.com/2018/02/introducing-adsense-auto-ads.html

 

{{if \IPS\Member::loggedIn()->member_id === NULL}}
	Adsense Auto Ad code goes here
{{endif}}

Just paste your ad code in the IF statement. This way the script won't load for users that are logged in.

All I did was create a custom ad tag and insert that tag into the global template. Within the ad settings, I have it showing to guests only. I did nt use any IF statements. 

It seemed to display more ads on mobile and it feels like it's slowing down the site a bit on smaller screens. I have everything on in adsense to show and it's too early to make a judgement so I'm going to continue to leave it up for a few days. 

 

I'm glad someone else is having issues.  I just initiated them.  This is what I'm getting:

Double ads.

Ad over the post, not in between posts.  

Anybody else seeing this?

 

Add this code to your custom.css Phil, fixed the ads that appeared over the posts for me among other things:
 

/* GOOGLE AD CODE FOR RESPONSIVE ADS */
#ipsLayout_mainArea .adsbygoogle { width: 300px; height: 250px; }
@media (min-width:380px) { #ipsLayout_mainArea .adsbygoogle { width: 336px; height: 280px; } }
@media (min-width:764px) { #ipsLayout_mainArea .adsbygoogle { width: 728px; height: 90px; } }
@media (min-width:980px) { #ipsLayout_mainArea .adsbygoogle { width: 468px; height: 60px; } }
@media (min-width:1160px) { #ipsLayout_mainArea .adsbygoogle { width: 728px; height: 90px; } }

#ipsLayout_sidebar .adsbygoogle { width: 300px; height: 250px; }
@media (min-width:380px) { #ipsLayout_sidebar .adsbygoogle { width: 336px; height: 280px; } }
@media (min-width:980px) { #ipsLayout_sidebar .adsbygoogle { width: 300px; height: 600px; } }

.adsbygoogle {
	display:inline!important;
}

 

 

I can see option  - to create new url group...  on clicking it says  choose your domain   for type of ads...

but I cannot see the specific url option where not to show ads 

Can you please check and share 

Click the Add URL button and a popup will come up.

Type in the URL that you want to hide all ads on (such as www.YOURSITE.com/register)

Trailing slash and http/https don't matter — they'll be stripped anyway.

Repeat adding your URLs for every page you want to disable ads from, then go to your site in the list below and click on the arrow dropdown (to reveal the URLs you just added). Select each one of them and continue to the next page. On the next page I believe you'll select each ad type that should be shown. Uncheck all of them, including the small button at the button about future ad type, then proceed. You can name it.

For example, I have multiple sites that use the same auto ad code. I name mine as such:

Site1.com - no ads
Site2.com - no ads

 

there is url option too

which all pages should i block

 

1 login

2 register 

and?

I don't actually use it on my IPS site, but I set it up for when I want to use it:

But my URLs are customized, except login, lostpassword, and contact. So your mileage will vary. For instance, all of my documents such as terms of service, ad disclosure, and privacy policy are under the /policy page, so including only that one will also remove the ads from /policy/privacy, /policy/terms, etc.

Keep in mind that Google themselves are also very good at not displaying ads on pages they think shouldn't have ads, such as those ones with very little text on them that don't seem like an article.

Hi, I have just installed AutoAds and everything will be perfect but ... In-Article Ads appear over the text. I have tride solution from CSSlife and

If I use:

1. solution - nothing changes

2. solution (only "display:inline") - In-Article Ads looks great but other don't appear at all

Any clues?

Thank you

I have the same problem.

 

I gave up with Google's Autoads and moved to Ezoic. It would be a nightmare to change the CSS for their ads as they are dynamic and you never know what size or where they are going to appear. It made no revenue difference for me either. Ezoic have a Chrome extension which allows really easy ad placement. It's not an ideal solution as you have to give them full DNS control and they insert a lot of code but I earn more with them as I can run on the Doubleclick network.

Is this in addition to regular google ads or as a complete replacement?

Hello, me personally, on the forum no problem (I have 2 forums) but for a few days on one of them and only on the Google Chrome browser, I have this problem, the ad appears on the frame where we post a message and hide the button "send" which is very annoying, and I have not yet found a solution to solve this problem, except remove all ads 😞
if someone has the same concern and found a solution, I'm interested 😉

 

Bonjour, moi perso, sur le forum aucun souci (j'en ai 2 de forums) mais depuis quelques jours sur l'un d'entre eux et que sur le navigateur Google Chrome, j'ai ce problème, la pub s'affiche sur le cadre où on poste un message et cache le bouton "envoyer" ce qui est très gênant, et je n'ai pas encore trouvé de solution pour régler ce problème, sauf supprimer toutes les pubs 😞

si quelqu'un à le même souci et à trouvé une solution, je suis preneur 😉

 

AdSense has announced a new version of auto-ads with a lot more control options. Any experiences with this?
