I was just using a image of a google ad until I got the ad placement where I wanted.

Code:

<br><img src="https://www.google.com/adsense/static/en_US/images/728x15.gif">

I had to use one br to drop the image down just were I wanted it in the center as show in first attachment, adgood..

Then I replaced the ad code with the google adsense script and it drops it way down, as show in the second attachment, adlow...

I have been trying to adjust the google adsense code placement, but don't know if it's possible.

Here is the code as I have it in the index.template.php file.

Code:

echo '
', empty($settings['site_slogan']) ? '<img id="smflogo" src="' . $settings['images_url'] . '/smflogo.png" alt="Simple Machines Forum" title="Simple Machines Forum" />' : '<div id="siteslogan" class="floatright">' . $settings['site_slogan'] . '</div>', '';


// Begin Ad Seller Pro Location - Test Location

global $sourcedir;
include_once $sourcedir . "/adseller2.php";

$adSellerAdData =  ShowAdLocation(1000);

// Check if any ads where found
if ($adSellerAdData != false)
{
// Dispaly the advertising code
echo $adSellerAdData;
}

// End Ad Seller Pro Location - Test Location
 
 echo '



</div> <div id="upper_section" class="middletext">
<div class="user">';

I have tried moving the Ad Seller Pro code around, but just seem to break it everytime I try something different.

Is it just the way it is or can it be adjusted so the google adsense ad displays higher up?

Thanks,

After sleeping on it I wondered what would happen if I put the adsense code in a table first.

That did the trick...

With the adsense in a table it acts just like my image did that I was using to help locate the ad placement.

Anyway I go the ad just where I want it now, thanks for the great mod!

Glad you got it working. Yeah sometimes a table will keep the code in place. Adsense and scripts like that behave a little differently so sometimes either a table or div helps keep them in order.
