Hi everyone,

I’d like to modify this type of ad:

 ![Screen Shot 2020-04-10 at 3.32.13 PM](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/3X/5/7/57c36887a9d788c38616ae5720c26821d24e0868.png)

Basically, I’d like to change the “Want these ads? Use the official Ad Plugin” to write my own text, and link to a URL of my choice. Can anyone provide guidance? Thanks!

But the ad type I’ve pointed out is a Code Fund ad. How do we modify those? I don’t have a code fund account.

I think you are looking for this:

You’ve been warned. dragon Also be aware of browsers with built-in ad-blocker functionality (eg. Brave) I’ve been working on adding support for house ads in the ad plugin and would like some feedback about how you’d use it. Here’s a video to demonstrate how I have it working now: You define a set of ads using html and the usual theme…

Thanks for the link, but that discussion doesn’t share how I can modify the Code Fund ad. I don’t want a banner, I want that little blue box with the word “Ad” in it, followed by text I can modify to my liking. Is this doable?

First step is to get a CodeFund account.

That text is configured in our CodeFund account. It’s the fallback ad when there’s no paid ad to show. ([Discussion here](https://meta.discourse.org/t/generate-funding-through-codefund-now-integrated-into-the-discourse-adplugin/90406/24).)

Thank you. Does Code Fund allow anyone to create an account? My discourse focus on humanitarian aid and engineering. I don’t expect the CF advertisers to make sense in my community, but I would like the CF advertising style in my discourse, just with my own text near the “ad” image. Please advise.

CodeFund really is focused on software developer websites and forums. Even though your discourse is valuable, I do not believe it would fit with our advertiser pool unfortunately.

I think what you want is [House Ads in the official Ad Plugin](https://meta.discourse.org/t/house-ads-in-the-official-ad-plugin/116715).
