Hi, I use category style 4 & grid 4.
How can I add an adspace just after the two big blocks?
Hello,
Our theme does not provide any category ad spots unfortunately. you will have to place a custom ad in the thee files if you require an ad on category pages.
You can use the ‘custom ad 1’ ad spot and then use this code:
<?php echo do_shortcode('[vc_row][vc_column][td_block_ad_box spot_id="custom_ad_1"][/vc_column][/vc_row]'); ?> and add it to this file like so: http://screencast.com/t/NblSUxUvrE
Thank you!
Thanks.
You might want to add that i should use a childtheme for this?
Or can this be added using a php snippet using a plugin that add stuff to functions.php
Hi,
You can use a child theme if you want as it will work from the child as well but you need to keep track of the modification as a child theme is not update proof. If the files get changed in a future update, you still have to make the modification again in the child theme.
Thank you!
Hi,
What is the use of a child theme if it is not update proof?
You should ask the wp developers :).

I personally think it’s a waste of time and effort but that is my personal opinion on the matter. The purpose is to customize the theme files without altering the main theme and saving some time for future updates. If the file does not get modified in the next 3 updates for example, then you do not need to touch the child theme files…but if the files do, then you have to replace the files and re-apply the modification. I find it a waste of time as you need to constantly keep track of what files are changed when updating.
There are different opinions on the matter though so It is depends on the user preference.
Thanks.
