Per category, leaderboard ads

Posted in: Newspaper

Im not aware of a way that this would be implemented.
Im looking to have different 728 banners in different categories.
At this time, there is no option to show an 728 within, or before, the posts loop of a category, but only a header one.

Please let me know about possible ways of implementing this (i.e. altering the php file to accept a shortcode and then adding the banner in a text box of a plugin that handles them)

Hello themesic,

Unfortunately, the theme does not have any such an option that allows you to add such a different ad per each category, sorry! You should edit the category templates, according to your category template used by you, adding the shortcode of your ads using the do_shortcode() method and before this, you will have to check what kind of category type you have to target it, using the is_category() function. Notice that is not a simple task and if you are not aware of the steps which are needed to take in this case, please consider hiring a freelancer/developer to help you because we cannot provide custom services at the moment, sorry!
Also, as a hint and for more information about this case, please consult the following topic from here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/ads-on-category-pages/ because there was explained how you could add that thing. For more information about the is_category(categroy_ID) function, please consult here -> https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/is_category/

Hope this helps!

Thanks for your understanding!

Custom editing is not a problem. Im mostly concerned about updates. They will override my changes. Is there any way to do auch a change updates-friendly?

Hello themesic,

You should use the child theme if you want to use some additional customizations. For more support for this, please check here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-child-theme-support-tutorial/

Thanks.
