Fandangle Adsense Module - How to insert Google Adsense ads in your webpages.

Now that you have installed the Fandangle Adsense module in Joomla you can start inserting Google ads on your website.

To start go to the top menu bar and select Extensions --> Module Manager

You will see a list of all the modules in the Module Manager page.

Go to the filter section on the right hand side of the module page and select type: mod_fandangle_adsense

This will list all the mod_fandangle_adsense modules you have installed on your Joomla website. For each ad on your web pages you will need to create a copy of the module and assign each module for a different position on each web page. Now each module will have the title Sponsored Links which can be very confusing if you want to know what page and position each module is assigned to. Here is an example of what can cause the confusion.

Configuration Steps -
This is how you can create an ad for each page and position

1. Change the Title of the ad and give the title of the ad the Page and Position of your ad (e.g. Home Top Right). Now you will probably say, but this title will appear on the page. Not so.

2. Show Title - select as 'No' this means the title will not appear on your webpage/position. This is how we are able to tell what page and position this ad has been assigned

3. Enabled - means the ad will appear on your web page. We select Yes.

4. Position - this is where we want the ad to appear. In this example the ad will appear on the Top position

With the above example we reduce the confusion by giving each ad Title and position it will appear as.

Below the menu Details, In the Menu Assignment section, we chose what page we want the Google ad to appear in.

1. We chose Select Menu Item(s)

2. We then select the page we want the Google ad to appear. In this example we choose 'Home'. This will assign the ad to the Home page.

On the right side of the page In the Module parameters section we assign the following details;

1. Publisher ID - This is your Google adsense PublisherID account number.

2. Ad Slot Number - The Google adsense code has changed. It doesn't ad the channel number of you Google ad any more. It will give you a ad slot number. This means when you are making changes when logged in to your Google adsense account, you can change the type and appearance (e.g. colors etc.) of your ad. Any changes you make will automatically change on your website.

3. Ad Name - this is the name you assign to the ad in your Google ad account. This tells you what type of ad you chose for the page/position (e.g. HomeTopRightBanner468x60)

4. Ad Layout - Select from the drop down list what type of ad format you chose for this ad. In this example I have chosen a Banner ad with the dimensions 468 x 60

 You have created your first Google adsense ad on your Home web page but how do you insert another ad on your web pages?
