239 = What about my users’ privacy and GDPR? =
240
241 The plugin comes with Privacy settings that help you gather consent from users before showing ads to them. The feature works for any ads managed with the plugin, including AdSense Auto ads.
242
243 Once you enable one of the Privacy options, Advanced Ads blocks ads that need consent until it is given. You can disable that check for individual ads as well (e.g., for image ads).
244 You can also deliver non-personalized AdSense ads when that is legally allowed in your area.
245
246 - [Cookie consent integration](https://wpadvancedads.com/manual/ad-cookie-consent/).
247 - [IAB TCF 2.0 integration](https://wpadvancedads.com/manual/tcf-consent-wordpress/).
248
249 Advanced Ads itself does neither save personal information (e.g., an IP address) in your database nor cookies in the visitor’s browser.
250
251 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/).
252
253 = Which ad networks are supported? =
254
255 Advanced Ads is compatible with all ad networks and banners from affiliate programs like Google AdSense, Chitika, Clickbank, Amazon, and also Google Ad Manager (formerly Google DoubleClick for Publishers, DFP), media.net.
256
257 You can also use it to insert additional ad network tags into header or footer of your site without coding.
258
259 AdSense has even a dedicated ad type leveling the specific options this ad network provides.
260
261 = PHP functions and shortcodes =
262
263 You can use functions and shortcodes to display ads and ad groups.
264
265 The integers in this example are the IDs of the elements.
266
267 Use these shortcodes to insert an ad or group into your post/page.
268
269 `[the_ad id="24"]`
270 `[the_ad_group id="5"]`
271
272 Use these functions to insert an ad or ad group into your template file.
273
274 `<?php the_ad(24); ?>`
275 `<?php the_ad_group(5); ?>`
276
277 In addition to directly displaying ads and groups you can define ad placements and assign either an ad or group to them.
278
279 `[the_ad_placement id="header-left"]`
280 `<?php the_ad_placement('header-left'); ?>`
281
282 = Is there a revenue share? =
283
284 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.
285
286 = Can I place ads directly in my theme files? =
287
288 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.
289
290 = Does it work with other ad plugins? =
291
292 Yes. Advanced Ads can be combined with other ad plugins.
293 Just use their shortcodes in our "Rich Media" ad type to combine both features.
294 Works with AdRotate, Ad Inserter, Ad Injection, Quick AdSense, Quick AdSense Reloaded (WPQUADS), Simple Ads Manager, and other plugins.
295 Advanced Ads can be used along Google Site Kit or replace it if you need more control over your ad setup.
296
297 = Is the plugin compatible with PHP 8? =
298
299 Yes, Advanced Ads supports current PHP versions and has been successfully tested on servers running PHP 8.
300
301 = Is the plugin compatible with page builders? =
302
303 Yes. It works out of the box with all site builders that allow shortcodes or widgets, like [Elementor](https://wpadvancedads.com/elementor-ads/), [SiteOrigin](https://wpadvancedads.com/siteorigin-page-builder/), [Beaver Builder](https://wpadvancedads.com/beaver-builder-ads/), [Nimble Page Builder](https://wordpress.org/plugins/nimble-builder/), [Pagelayer](https://wpadvancedads.com/pagelayer/), and others.
304 There is also a [free add-on to support the WPBakery Page Builder](https://wordpress.org/plugins/ads-for-visual-composer/) (formerly Visual Composer).
305
306 = Will ads show up for ad block users? =
307
308 Visitors who have any ad blocker (e.g., AdBlock Plus) enabled won’t see ads from known external sources (e.g., AdSense).
309 You can still monetize those spots with custom content.
310
311 Read more about ad blockers and the features Advanced Ads has to deal with them [on this page](https://wpadvancedads.com/manual/ad-blockers/).
312
313 = Does the plugin support an ads.txt? =
314
315 Google AdSense and some other networks ask you to provide an ads.txt.
316 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.
317
318 = I am a developer. Can I customize the plugin? =
319
320 Yes. You can use plenty of [hooks](https://wpadvancedads.com/codex/) to customize Advanced Ads.
