Troubleshooting
The Ad Widget is a very simple plugin. If you are having trouble
loading ads on your site, please make sure that:
- You do not have an ad blocker installed (you would be amazed how often this happens). Disable it and refresh the page a few times to see if the ad appears.
- You don’t have CSS in your theme which is hiding images (rare, but it happens)
If you have any other trouble, email [email protected] – try to avoid
the WordPress support forums because they’re awful.
Installation
First: Turn off any ad blockers you might have installed. They prevent
ads from appearing!
Other than that, there aren’t any special instructions for installing this plug-in. Once
installed, go to Appearance -> Widgets, and look for the “Ad Widget” widgets!
You can also go to Settings -> Ad Widget for a video demo on how to use it.
