Google Ads don't show up

Hello,

I have a strange issue with my site, That I have been trying to resolve since many days.

Whenever I put Google Ads block in any HTML pages , the Ads dont show up, but when I select the contents of the page with mouse, I see that Ad block is highlighted.

For eg:

I tried to edit weblinks_index.html , and at the very end of page I put my Google Ads code. You can see it here

http://csqa.info/modules/weblinks/

Select the text "Latest Site" all the way down and you will see that rectangular block is highlighted.

Am I missing something here?

Regards
Taher

I had a similar problem posting google ads in AMS. The quick and dirty workaround was to remove all line breaks and the HTML comment marks.

Example...

Change:
<script type="text/javascript">
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js">
script><iframe name="google_ads_frame" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/ads?client=ca-pub-0869296573901896&dt=1129075124484&lmt=1129075124&prev_fmts=728x90_as&format=468x60_as&output=html&url=http%3A%2F%2Fcsqa.info%2Fmodules%2Fweblinks%2F&ad_type=image&ref=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.xoops.org%2Fmodules%2Fnewbb%2Fviewtopic.php%3Ftopic_id%3D42513%26forum%3D1%26post_id%3D186172&cc=100&u_h=768&u_w=1024&u_ah=740&u_aw=1024&u_cd=32&u_tz=-240&u_his=1&u_java=true&u_nplug=22&u_nmime=92" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" vspace="0" hspace="0" allowtransparency="true" frameborder="0" height="60" scrolling="no" width="468"><img>iframe>


To:
<script type="text/javascript">google_ad_client = "pub-0869296573901896";google_ad_width = 468;google_ad_height = 60;google_ad_format = "468x60_as";google_ad_type = "image";google_ad_channel ="";script><script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js">script><iframe name="google_ads_frame" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/ads?client=ca-pub-0869296573901896&dt=1129075124484&lmt=1129075124&prev_fmts=728x90_as&format=468x60_as&output=html&url=http%3A%2F%2Fcsqa.info%2Fmodules%2Fweblinks%2F&ad_type=image&ref=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.xoops.org%2Fmodules%2Fnewbb%2Fviewtopic.php%3Ftopic_id%3D42513%26forum%3D1%26post_id%3D186172&cc=100&u_h=768&u_w=1024&u_ah=740&u_aw=1024&u_cd=32&u_tz=-240&u_his=1&u_java=true&u_nplug=22&u_nmime=92" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" vspace="0" hspace="0" allowtransparency="true" frameborder="0" height="60" scrolling="no" width="468"><img>iframe>


Hope this helps.

Different kettle of fish here I think James. The issue with AMS is that the banner areas still go through the XOOPS text sanitizer which alters the raw HTML code making it invalid for Google. Taherk seems to be placing his code directly into his module template, which is much more complex if you don't know HTMl or smarty very well/at all. Taherk, is something like I have done with my site what you are after with your Google Ads?

http://www.it-hq.org/modules/mylinks/

If so let me know as there are several templates per module you'll need to edit to do this.

First of all Thanks James and Brash for responding.

James - I did not understand the iframe part. What code goes in that.

Brash - Yes I want google ads, just like on your site. I read ur article, but I have not worked with phpAdsNew. Is there a way to do it just by using xoops

Thanks a lot

Hi taherk,

Did you happen to read the article I just wrote on maximising your Google Ads revenue with Xoops? There are some specific examples on how to implement Google Ads into XOOPS in there.

To answer your question.... That was a direct copy and paste from your website. I did not alter the code other than to remove the HTML comments and line breaks.

Best Regards,

James

Hi Brash,

I did your article and cloned and edited my weblinks templates. I see the google ads code in there, but it does not appear on my site.

ALso I tried to create a block as u mentioned in article with just google ads code. The block appears on front page, but it is empty, without any content.

So looks like this is some weirdo problem

-Thanks

Did you try refreshing the page a few times? I've found that sometimes it takes Google Ads a few page refreshes before it starts delivering ads.
