How do I choose where ads appear on my pages?

In this story

Where: Settings → Readers & money → Ads

Open this page: admin.<your-site>/settings/ads (replace <your-site> with your site address)

Before you start

  • Only the site owner can change ads settings.

Steps

  1. Open Settings → Readers & money → Ads.
  2. Under Ad slots, find the slot. If your design has none, the page says "Your design has no ad slots."
  3. Turn on Show this slot.
  4. Choose the Slot type (display or native widget).
  5. For display, enter the Ad unit path like /12345678/top_banner, or choose Ad network and enter the AdSense slot id (6 to 12 digits).
  6. For native, pick the Native vendor (Taboola, Teads, MGID, Colombia, Ad Manager) and enter the Widget or placement id from your vendor's dashboard.
  7. Choose the Devices.
  8. Press Save on the slot. The page says "Slot saved."
