How To: Put banner in between Wordpress post

dannyfoo · #1 (**permalink**) 12-01-2007, 10:59 AM

I've still not found the answer for this. Well, I have but it's only for WP 1.5 and not 2.0+.

How do I insert a banner/Adsense in between my 1st and 2nd post on the Index Template?

Currently, my code is like this:

PHP Code:


			
<div id="content">

    <?php if (have_posts()) :?>

        <?php $postCount=0; ?>

        <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post();?>

            <?php $postCount++;?>

    <div class="entry entry-<?php echo $postCount ;?>">

        <div class="entrytitle">

            <h2><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2> 

            <h3><?php the_time('F jS, Y') ?></h3>

        </div>

        <div class="entrybody">

<?php the_content('<p>Read the rest of this entry &raquo;</p>'); ?>

        </div>

        

        <div class="entrymeta">

        <div class="postinfo">

            <span class="postedby">Posted by <?php the_author() ?></span>

            <span class="filedto">Filed in <?php the_category(', ') ?><?php edit_post_link('Edit', ' | ', ''); ?></span>

| <?php comments_popup_link('No Comments »', '1 Comment »', '% Comments »', 'commentslink'); ?> | <?php if(function_exists('the_views')) { the_views(); } ?>

<script src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~s/WebsitesMadeSimple?i=<?php the_permalink() ?>" type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"></script>

        </div>

        </div>

        

    </div>

    <div class="commentsblock">

        <?php comments_template(); ?>

    </div>

    <?php endwhile; ?>



<?php next_posts_link('&laquo; Previous Entries') ?> | <?php previous_posts_link('Next Entries &raquo;') ?>



        

    <?php else : ?>



        <h2>Not Found</h2>

        <div class="entrybody">Sorry, but you are looking for something that isn't here.

</div>

    <?php endif; ?>

</div>

Hope someone could help me out with this.

Thanks.

Put the code before the looping ends:

PHP Code:


			
    <?php endwhile; ?>

Urm, it works but it's being repeated in the middle of all my posts.

I want it to only appear between the 1st and 2nd recent post.

Thanks.

Wordpress.com TOS said, they not allow any ads in their blog service. Some people banned/suspended due promoting AFFILIATE and REFERAL program .

So!.. easy.. get your own domain and hosting

ApOgEE · #9 (**permalink**) 20-01-2007, 12:49 PM

if you want to use wordpress for test only, you may use 110mb.com.
you'll get 2 gigs space. I usually use this hosting for a testing server.
uload your zip there and extract. it's easy.

danny i still cant find way around to play with k2 theme.. they said its gotta be somewhere 'the_loop'...

give it some rest...

dannyfoo · #13 (**permalink**) 28-01-2007, 09:17 PM

urm.. I'll try to find the file buchin was mentioning about when I temporarily use the k2 theme again...or install another WP somewhere on my server. :P

Hopefully can get it out this coming week.

Cheers.
