Turn off ads in body of a page template

Posted in: Newspaper
Post count: 38

I want to either create a new page template or to modify an existing template so it doesn’t show ads in the body
For example, I use Post Style 5 as my default right now, and I want to use Post Style 3 for stories that have a large image to display. There may be some text below them and possibly a button to go to the next one.

In Style 5, I have an ad block in the top left corner, but I don’t want that in Style 3.
Also, in Style 5, I have a large block of image ads above the footer, but I may not want them in Style 3
How can I turn them off?

I saw you have previously talked about this, but it must have been before Newspaper v.6 and the instructions were in a screenshot that no longer exists.

Hello newsblaze,

If you want to make a mix between our post templates, please notice that involve hard coding and also, it is required to have a solid knowledge of PHP/HTML/CSS. Also, please notice that is not a simple task and is needed to do a lot of customizations in order to achieve as you want that involve custom work. If you want to change the post template you have to do changes in these core files -> http://screencast.com/t/2HyT7O5ixE according to post template used by you in the theme. If you are not aware of the steps in this regard, please consider hiring a freelancer/developer to help you because we cannot provide customization services at the moment, sorry!
Also, if you need more assistance that does not imply custom work, please provide your website URL so I can inspect it closer.

Hope this helps!

Thank you for your understanding!

Thank you Catalin, I will check that out (I’m a programmer)
Another way it could be done, in the case of a small number of pages, is if there was a way to add CSS on a page-by-page basis.
i.e. I could add something like this:

.td-a-rec-id-content_bottom {display: none;}

Here is what I actually did to get the effect I wanted:
I set the 10 stories that I didn’t want the bottom ads on, to use Template #12
and in the custom code section of the Theme Panel, I did this:

.td-post-template-12 .td-a-rec-id-content_bottom {display: none;}

It would be great if you could add, say 5 custom Post templates, and allow a way to connect those post templates to a particular category or list of categories.

But for now, I made it work to do what I wanted. Lucky it was only 10 pages and not 1,000

Hello newsblaze,

Unfortunately, our theme does not have such an option for what you want to achieve, sorry! Please notice that any option that is not contained by the theme and you want to implement it, you only accomplish if add it through the code and that thing involves custom work. At the moment, we cannot provide this type of services, sorry!

Thank you for the message!
