Hi,
Smartilsts will ignore article inline ads by default. You can make use of the smartlist ads: http://screencast.com/t/iPn5Ylni or manually insert ads inside the post content by using the visual composer shorcode of an adbox. Create a dummy page and add an ad box on the page. Then access the classic mode and text mode of the mce editor. The copy the shortcode inside your post content and the ad will display inside the smartlist. Unfortunately you will have to add it manually for every smartlist.
Thanks.
Thanks for the response!
I think this is a problem that multiples users have had already, and would it be nice if we could find a solution to it that is not posting the add shortcode in hundreds of articles.
Moreover, I dont see the point of removing the inline article from smartlist (specially 2, 3 and 4) since they look like a regular post, only with numbered sub-headings.
Could it be possible to edit the smartlist or inline ad php file in order to achieve this in a global way on the site?
Thanks in advance!
Hello,
Unfortunately things are not as simple as it looks like. These types of smartlists, even though it seems they are on the same page and could be like a simple post, they are not. Every section of the smartlist is separated from the other. If you place an ad inside the php file by hard-coding, this will be the result: http://screencast.com/t/hKvYLgjo – it will place the ad after each title of the smartlist. This is the way smartlists work. It’s the same if you use a sliding smartlist. ALternatively you can have a single ad on top of the smartlist: http://screencast.com/t/8NU01k2h but there is no way of adding it like an article inline ad after a set paragraph.
Depending on the position you place the shortcode inside the file, here is the code for the first implementation with multiple ads: http://screencast.com/t/pa6xuzfoaMN by using this code:
$buffy .= do_shortcode('[td_block_ad_box spot_id="custom_ad_1"]');
And here is the implementation for the single ad: http://screencast.com/t/cAVAeD8UVxk by using this code:
echo do_shortcode('[td_block_ad_box spot_id="custom_ad_1"]');
You can use this method for the other smartlists.
Thank you
