AdSense plugin (request)

[lombisi]

DFB works. But difficult to use. And earnings is reduced.

I think it should be a plug-in for AdSense. He must have a special box. And it can be renewed on 3 pages. (regardless of site)

I got AdSense flawlessly working, but therefore had to disable Ajax and modify the Composer a bit.

This is the biggest blocker. Disabling ajaxify (read: crippling a site feature) is not a solution to getting adsense working imo...

I think Google AdSense would be distracting.

@Dog2puppy-MCPE Google AdSense is necessary to pay the sites cost.

Or do you have an idea how to pay for over 1.5Mio. visitors a month?

@Kowlin how I added advertisments to the site, which do not dissapear.

@lombisi, I will make a how-to later.

Here the guide:

1. Open public/src/ajaxify.js and go to line 304, edit the code to this:

    // if (window.history && window.history.pushState) {
	// Progressive Enhancement, ajaxify available only to modern browsers
	// ajaxifyAnchors();
	// }

---

2. Go to node_modules/nodebb-plugin-composer-default/static/lib/composer.js.

Search and replace:
history.back();
window.history.back();

with this:

location.reload();

---

3. You are basically done and now can insert your AdSense code into your template. Here how I did it:

• Go to node_modules/nodebb-theme-persona/templates/partials and create a file named ads.tpl.
• Insert the AdSense code into it.
• Open the location, where you want to add it. For example on the login page you can add this after the breadcrumb:
  <!-- IMPORT partials/ads.tpl -->

---

4. Restart NodeBB, your ads should work fine.

@AOKP thank you so much.

1. Do the changes are not lost after the update? (public/src/ajaxify.js)
2. How true?

[A Former User]

@lombisi just backup them before upgrading. Mine stayed though (composer and template need to be re-edited!).

Before I forget it:
Only replace the second history.back(); .

[julian]

@AOKP There's actually an easier way... all you have to do is edit ajaxify.go and add return true; to the first line, I believe, and ajaxification is disabled.

I've tested. There are some problems. Thank you again for your concern.

@julian thanks! good job!

Just installed this yesterday, not having much luck with the ads displaying. Anyone else having issues?
