200 == Frequently Asked Questions ==
201
202 = How to put ads on WordPress? =
203
204 You can use Advanced Ads to insert ads into your WordPress site without any coding.
205
206 To get started, just take a look at
207
208 * the [general first ad tutorial](https://wpadvancedads.com/manual/first-ad/)
209 * using [AdSense Auto ads](https://wpadvancedads.com/adsense-auto-ads-wordpress/) in WordPress
210 * the [AdSense overview page](https://wpadvancedads.com/adsense-ads).
211 * Ads not showing up? Take a look [here](https://wpadvancedads.com/manual/ads-not-showing-up).
212
213 = What about my users’ privacy and GDPR? =
214
215 You can show ads only to visitors that give their consent. See [GDPR support](https://wpadvancedads.com/manual/ad-cookie-consent/).
216
217 Advanced Ads itself does neither save personal information (e.g., an IP address) in your database nor cookies in the visitor’s browser.
218
219 Third party services like Google Analytics are disabled by default.
220
221 You can learn more about how Advanced Ads and its add-ons handles data and privacy of your visitors [on this page](https://wpadvancedads.com/manual/privacy-information-for-users/).
222
223 = Which ad networks are supported? =
224
225 Advanced Ads is compatible with all ad networks and banners from affiliate programs like Google AdSense, Chitika, Clickbank, Amazon, and also Google Ad Manager (Google Double Click, DFP), media.net.
226
227 You can also use it to insert additional ad network tags into header or footer of your site without coding.
228
229 AdSense has even a dedicated ad type leveling the specific options this ad network provides.
230
231 = PHP functions and shortcodes =
232
233 You can use functions and shortcodes to display ads and ad groups.
234
235 The integers in this example are the IDs of the elements.
236
237 Use these shortcodes to insert an ad or group into your post/page.
238
239 `[the_ad id="24"]`
240 `[the_ad_group id="5"]`
241
242 Use these functions to insert an ad or ad group into your template file.
243
244 `<?php the_ad(24); ?>`
245 `<?php the_ad_group(5); ?>`
246
247 In addition to directly displaying ads and groups you can define ad placements and assign either an ad or group to them.
248
249 `[the_ad_placement id="header-left"]`
250 `<?php the_ad_placement('header-left'); ?>`
251
252 = Is there a revenue share? =
253
254 There is no revenue share. Advanced Ads doesn’t alter your ad codes in a way that you earn less than you would directly including the ad code in your template.
255
256 = Can I place ads directly in my theme files? =
257
258 Yes. I would add a "Manual" placement into your theme files. It would allow you to change the displayed ads or groups later without changing your code again.
259
260 = Does it work with other ad plugins? =
261
262 Yes. Advanced Ads can be combined with other ad plugins.
263 Just use their shortcodes in our "Rich Media" ad type to combine both features.
264 Works with AdRotate, Ad Inserter, Ad Injection, Quick AdSense, Quick AdSense Reloaded (WPQUADS), Simple Ads Manager, and other plugins.
265
266 = Can I use Flash ads? =
267
268 There is a dedicated Flash ad type in [Pro](https://wpadvancedads.com/add-ons/advanced-ads-pro/).
269
270 = Is the plugin compatible with page builders? =
271
272 Yes. It works out of the box with all site builders that allow shortcodes or widgets, like Elementor, SiteOrigin, Beaver Builder, WPBakery Page Builder (formerly Visual Composer), [Nimble Page Builder](https://wordpress.org/plugins/nimble-builder/), and others.
273 There is also a [free add-on to support the WPBakery Page Builder (formerly Visual Composer)](https://wordpress.org/plugins/ads-for-visual-composer/).
274
275 = Will ads show up for ad block users? =
276
277 Visitors who have any ad blocker (e.g., AdBlock Plus) enabled won’t see ads from known external sources (e.g., AdSense).
278 You can still monetize those spots with custom content.
279
280 Read more about ad blockers and the features Advanced Ads has to deal with them [on this page](https://wpadvancedads.com/manual/ad-blockers/).
281
282 = Does the plugin support an ads.txt? =
283
284 Google AdSense and some other networks ask you to provide an ads.txt.
285 Advanced Ads can create that file automatically with the correct information for AdSense, when you enable the ads.txt feature in Advanced Ads > Settings > General > ads.txt and enter your AdSense publisher ID in Advanced Ads > Settings > AdSense.
286
287 = I am a developer. Can I customize the plugin? =
288
289 Yes. Advanced Ads is based on WordPress standards and therefore easily customizable using either WordPress hooks or the ones we defined [here](https://wpadvancedads.com/codex/).
290
291 == Screenshots ==
292
