Hey everyone, I’m wondering if anyone could help me. I’m wanting to place custom adverts on top of my forum. But, I don’t want to use google ads etc. I want them to be personal and custom ads, that I choose. Is there a HTML code anyone has which will enable me to do this? or even something which will scroll through a range of adverts which I put on, instead of just having to manually change them after a set period of time. In summary: I’m wanting a way to be able to place custom ads which people send me on my forum, without having to use google adsense etc. Is this possible and if so, how? Any help is appreciated.

Did you try House Ads ? [image] House Ads in the official Ad Plugin megaphoneAnnouncements Am I correct that the official ad plugin no longer offers the ‘House Ads’ option described? Having installed the plugin, the settings available include additional ad source options not described in the GitHub installation instructions, but seems to now omit the option to make own ads.

I use these which has good mobile code [image] House Ad Templates Site Management House Ad Templates This guide provides templates for creating house ads using the Official Discourse Ad Plugin. warning Important: Disable ad blockers (including those built in to browsers, e.g. Brave) before working with these ad customizations. Before You Start Create a “House Ads” theme component to store: CSS for your house ads Uploaded images used in ads Add the component to all active themes where ads will appear Optimize images using TinyPNG to reduce file size while maintain… and you can also sign up for various affiliate marketing programs outside of google/amazon for widgets etc [image]

I’ve installed the ad plugin. Does anyone have a html template for adverts. Where I just need to enter the image link and destination url?

The link I posted above has them [image]

I’m following those html code etc. Do I need to use both the html and css for the ad to show/work? If so, where do I post the css? and do I put the html in the creator where i create the ad?

The HTML will go in the editor that displays when you create a new House Ad. As for the CSS, the best approach is mentioned in the main topic: [image]House Ad Templates Create a “House Ads” theme component to hold any CSS that relates to your house ads. You can also use it to upload any images you want to use for the ads. Be sure to add the component to any relevant, active themes!
