custom image ads 250x250pixels in sidebar/right column of homepage

hello,

my apologies, i’ve never used ads and i’m confused by your site’s ad system.

i’ve read the information from your site regarding how to place ads but i will not being using adsense ads and am still confused by directions (https://forum.tagdiv.com/using-other-ads-non-adsense-ads/).

i would like my site to display 250×250 pixel custom image ads down the right side. (images that i will upload.) i’ve divided my homepage into 3/4 + 1/4 rows (i’m not sure if that’s how it should work or if it should be a widget added to the column/sidebar etc..) and whenever i try to add an ad spot to the right column (custom ad code, spot id, image ad etc.) i see nowhere to customize the size.. i read that one can insert a sidebar widget but it’s my understanding that doing that will make this default on all pages and i only want this layout on the home page. i can provide links to sites with ads i would like to emulate if that helps. i apologize if my request makes no sense – i’m not sure how to explain what i want and which of these methods apply to me. thank you.

Hi,

So you want to add banners, for this you can use tagDiv Composer and use the ad box element this has a tab for images -> https://i.imgur.com/m4PpzOT.png

Hope this will help you!
Have a nice weekend!

hello,
no.. i would like the right side column to be INDEPENDENT of the rest of the page so i can add ads one under the other in the right column/inner row without affecting the rest of the page’s rows.. i tried creating a sidebar but it doesn’t work.. anything i add (whether an inner row or a custom ad spot or widget etc.) to the right side causes everything to the left of it (ie. the news content) to move/adjust with it (ie. if i have a main row divided into 3/4 & 1/4 and want the 3/4 to be blocks for news and the 1/4 to insert custom ads one under the other, because the ads are vertically shorter than the block i have a large space before i can insert the next one underneath – it is not independent of the centre/left – does that make sense??) thank you.

Hello !

Unfortunately this option is not yet available in the Newspaper Theme.

Thank you !

thank you – it seems nothing can REALLY be customized with this template afterall.
but rather than just say i can’t make the right side independent, can you not at at least provide suggestions and help as to how i can insert 125×125 pixel or 250×250 pixel squares into the right side?

Hello !

Do you want to insert some images ? You can do that either by using the column text element ( which will render any HTML code you put there or any image ). Or you can browse through our list of image options as you can see here: https://www.screencast.com/t/3FwtwgLWvl

Thank you !

i want to insert custom image ads.. (images that will be sent to me to post by local businesses.)i have read everything on the site and it says i can do that but doesn’t really explain how (unless they are adsense/google ads etc) for someone who is new to this.

i asked you how to add ads without them affecting the row and you replied that it’s not possible however the site states: “Keep the ad in its own separate row” – how?

the site says: “by hosting local businesses’ ads” – this is what i want: small image ads from local businesses linking to their sites. i do not understand how.

“The new “Ad Box” element added into the tagDiv Composer makes it easy for you to copy-paste the ad codes straight on the front end. What’s more, you can even use this shortcode to display local business ads.” – i would like to know how to do this.

“Sample image ad with different images for each device: This is just for custom ads. ” – where do i get the codes? how do i set the size? (i see where to set adsense sizes but that’s all) i would like local business ads to be in aprox. 95×300 rectangular boxes one below the other down the right column/sidebar and in another area of the homepage i would like a row of them 125×125 across. (i have tried every way to get ad boxes across including creating a row with 3 columns and inserting an inner row to each that has 2 columns… otherwise ads placed just go below and not beside each other – if i don’t put a row it doesn’t work – i know this is incorrect but i don’t know how to do it. ) how do i create a template with the set sizes so i don’t have to do it every time?

(if i can figure it out i would like this to be added to all other pages but for now i am trying to do it on the homepage.)

i am not understanding so if you could please help i would very much appreciate it.
thank you.

Hi meeshymee,

So if you want to use banners with links you can use tagDiv Composer and ad box like this -> https://i.imgur.com/C8nXZcI.jpg add the ad box and in Image ad tab -> https://i.imgur.com/C8nXZcI.jpg you can load the images you want to display -> https://i.imgur.com/VNxxgH4.jpg the banner size can be choose when you insert the image -> https://i.imgur.com/iIJo81J.jpg also you can set the width from here -> https://i.imgur.com/scFQqy0.jpg
Also if you set the banners in theme panel you need to set it like this -> https://i.imgur.com/RBAoBjK.png this code is according to this one -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/article-ads/ -> https://i.imgur.com/MkXeBrV.png

Hope this will help you!
Thank you!

thank you – none of this really answers my question and the link: https://forum.tagdiv.com/article-ads/ is blank for me.
i do not want to ad a single banner – i would like to know how to ad a row of square custom ads..all in one row. you said “this code is according to this one” – i do not know the code… i do not understand the response.
lastly, if i set the codes ( i still don’t know how to set a code) in the panel does this mean i will not have to constantly adjust size change it when i change the images weekly?

under ‘add’ there are two ads to insert – my ad template and ad box. please tell me the difference and please explain to me step by step how to insert SEVERAL square ads in a single row. (and how to make a 125×125 or 250×250 pixel template). thank you.

the example you sent https://imgur.com/MkXeBrV is for adsense – which i specifically said i am not using. i am very confused. based on your response am i able to insert banners however these banners are set to be in certain areas (header, footer etc) how do i ad them beside each other in the same row in the centre of the page and not on the sidebar, header or footer?

Hi meeshymee,

If you want to set more ads/banner in a single row, then you can do it on pages using tagDiv Composer -> https://i.imgur.com/51pD16i.jpg add an inner row where you want to set these ads -> https://i.imgur.com/5yYmJnl.jpg after that set the inner row layout -> https://i.imgur.com/9m8PqM7.jpg after that add the ad box element -> https://i.imgur.com/N6UtYPn.jpg using ad box, you can use the ads set in theme panel -> https://i.imgur.com/N6UtYPn.jpg or you can use banners (images with links) -> https://i.imgur.com/NR5Cooy.jpg or you can set a code for ads like in theme panel -> https://i.imgur.com/BtJTPx8.jpg after that do the same for the rest of ads.
Also for the images use as banners you can use different size -> https://i.imgur.com/yX878WP.jpg

Hope this will help you!
Thank you!
