Where can I find the advert widget?

    I am wanting to load adverts onto my editor blog.  From the live demonstration I should be able to put ads on the side bar as well as throughout the post (horizontal).  How do I do this?  Is there a widget I am supposed to be using?

    Hi @theboxbureau;
    You should create a text widget in the sidebar and write your link and image url.
    Example;
    <a href="#"><img alt="banner" src="image-url-here"></a>
    Thanks

    thanks @serkan. I had already tried that when I did it two things happened.
    1) When you clicked on the advert it did not open the advertisers website on a new page. Is there a way to get clicks on adverts to open in a new page?
    2) The advert (skyscraper ad in sidebar) was not in line with the rest of the sidebar (i.e. it appeared outside of the sidebar column. Is there a way around that?

    One final question – can you place a banner advert in the middle of your post text (in between paragraphs)? Is this done through text box as well?

    Hi @theboxbureau;
    1) <a href="#" target="_blank"><img alt="banner" src="image-url-here"></a>
    2) Go to appearance > widget > blog side bar and drag and drop the text widget here. It should be inside the column if it is not, provide me your url and i will check out.
    3) You can add the pictures as same as the widget text. Copy that html code to the text tab in the post between paragraphs.
    Thanks

    Hi @theboxbureau,

    For inserting ads inside the posts, you can use any of the following plugins (they both work great in Editor theme):

    Insert Post Ads (my favorite): https://wordpress.org/plugins/insert-post-ads/
    Ad Injection: https://wordpress.org/plugins/ad-injection/

    Cheers! :)
