			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ad-Rotator is simple, yet effective ad rotation plugin for WordPress written by <a href="http://blog.taragana.com/" target="_blank">Angsuman Chakraborty</a> .&nbsp; As is often the case with community written plugins, the technical docs on how to get the plugin to work are limited and somewhat confusing, specifically in regards to Google&#39;s Ad-sense program.&nbsp; I was able to reach Angsuman via email and after a quick flurry of messages he was able to show me how to get Ad-Rotator working with a number of different affiliate programs, including Ad-sense.<span id="more-24"></span></p>
<p>Here are the step by step instructions to get Ad-Rotator to work.</p>
<ol>
<li>Download the software from <a href="http://blog.taragana.com/index.php/archive/wordpress-plugin-adrotator-rotate-your-ads-including-adsense-dynamically/2/#Download" target="_blank">Angsuman&#39;s website</a> .</li>
<li>Unzip the script to your desktop.</li>
<li>Connect to your site via FTP/SSL.</li>
<li>Upload the adrotator.php script to the wp-content/plugins folder.</li>
<li>Activate the plugin.</li>
<li>Create a txt file (use notepad not MS Word) and call it <a href="http://www.davehildebrand.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/banner.txt" target="_blank">banner.txt</a> .</li>
<li>Copy and paste the script your affiliate program gives you into the banner.txt file.&nbsp; Each banner ad must be on one line only.</li>
<li>Save and upload the banner.txt file to your wp-content folder.</li>
<li>Paste  into your template, this is where you want the ads to be displayed, and save your changes.</li>
</ol>
<p>Users report that getting ad-sense to work for them is a major pain.&nbsp; Angsuman was able to clarify this via our email conversation.&nbsp; Below is the code Google gives you to display their ads. </p>
<blockquote><p><em>[code]&lt;script type=&quot;text/javascript&quot;&gt;<font color="#ff0000">&lt; !--</font><br /> google_ad_client = &quot;pub-xxxx&quot;;<br /> google_ad_width = 728;<br /> google_ad_height = 15;<br /> google_ad_format = &quot;728x15_0ads_al_s&quot;;<br /> google_ad_channel =&quot;&quot;;<br /> google_color_border = &quot;FFFFFF&quot;;<br /> google_color_bg = &quot;FFFFFF&quot;;<br /> google_color_link = &quot;9C0000&quot;;<br /> google_color_url = &quot;9C0000&quot;;<br /> google_color_text = &quot;000000&quot;;<br /> <font color="#ff0000">// -- &gt;</font>&lt;/script&gt;<br /> &lt;script type=&quot;text/javascript&quot;<br /> xsrc=&quot;http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js&quot;&gt;<br /> &lt;/script&gt;[/code]</em></p></blockquote>
<p>The above code needs to be edited to get it to work in Ad-Rotator.&nbsp; The <em><font color="#ff0000">&lt; !&#8211;</font></em> &amp;&nbsp; <em><font color="#ff0000">// &#8212; &gt;</font></em> need to be removed and the code needs to be on one line.</p>
<p>If you follow the instructions abvoe, Ad-Rotator will work like a charm for you.</p>
<p><font color="red">Update:</font>Download <a href="http://www.davehildebrand.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/banner.txt">this file</a> to see how the one line of code should look like.</p>
