Please admin, how do i add an Anti-AdBlock script to my NewsMag Theme. Or maybe in future can you add this feature to the theme?
Blocking advertisements is a subject that still divides web users although a large percentage of webmasters dislike their visitors using them because their ad revenue drops. Just as its affecting mine too!
There is no way to stop an adblocker from running on somebody’s PC/Mac through WordPress.
Some plugins will show a “note popup” to adblock users, telling them something like “reading our content without the ads means we can’t pay to continue making great stuff” or somesuch — there are plugins to do this you might try out; try the WordPress.org plugin repository.
What some sites are doing is promoted content, textual ads manually inserted into content, interstitials that must be seen before page loads either as overlay (modal), or redirect — meaning “check to see external link > redirect to ad post > with forward link to the page originally requested” ….
these are way outside the scope of the theme itself, and are likely things included with pro-level ad module/management systems which have either high cost or ongoing subscription to keep updated.
If none of that makes sense, you may want to do more research on this issue online.
There is no “one size fits all” or “simple plugin fix” for this particular issue.
We are working through such options for our publishing network at this time, incidentally, since ad revenue has falling by 80% over past 4 years.
I would love to see a TagDiv plugin for the ad page redirect to original requested page option; but these are sometimes things that might be better served through an ad system which is updated regularly as strictly an ad system to manage both ads, ad sales, ad placement and things like promoted post, custom post templates, etc.
Not super easy to do.
