Source

Copy the following code into extensions/AdsWherever.php:

<?php
$wgExtensionCredits['parserhook'][] = array(
        'name' => 'AdsWherever',
        'description' => 'Place any ads wherever you want',
        'author' => 'Wikimama',
        'url' => 'http://www.wikimama.com'
);
 
$wgHooks['ParserFirstCallInit'][] = 'AdsSetup';
 
function AdsSetup( &$parser ) {
        $parser->setHook( 'ads', 'AdsRender' );
       return true;
}
 
 
function AdsRender($input, $args ) {    
$input =""; 
$url = array(); 
// Google Adsense Example
$ad['goo1']  = '<div class="thumbnail"><div id="ads">'."\n";
$ad['goo1'] .= '<script type="text/javascript"><!--'."\n";
$ad['goo1'] .= 'google_ad_client = "Your Publisher ID";'."\n";
$ad['goo1'] .= 'google_ad_slot = "The Ads slot number";'."\n";
$ad['goo1'] .='google_ad_width = ;'."\n";
$ad['goo1'] .= 'google_ad_height = ;'."\n";
$ad['goo1'] .= '//-->'."\n";
$ad['goo1'] .= '</script>'."\n";
$ad['goo1'] .= '<script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js">'."\n";
$ad['goo1'] .= '</script>'."\n";
$ad['goo1'] .= '</div></div>';
 
// Commission Junction Example
$ad['code1']  = '<a href="http://www.example.com/123" target="_blank">';
$ad['code1'] .= '<img src="http://www.example.com/123.gif" width="190" height="190" /></a>';
 
// Commission Junction Example
$ad['example']  = '<a href="http://www.google.com">';
$ad['example'] .= 'Hello world</a>';
 
$media = $args['media'];
return $ad[$media];
}

Installation

• Create the file AdsWherever.php and paste the code shown above. Make sure there are no empty lines after the final php exit tag.
• Upload adswherever.php to your $IP/extensions directory.
• Add the following lines at the end of LocalSettings.php:

require_once("extensions/AdsWherever.php");

Usage

After you set the variable in $ad['name'], insert a tag into anywhere of your page. Here is an example to insert the google adsense code.

To insert this tag:

<ads media=Goo1>

It will show the whole google adsense code.

Also try

<ads media=example /> 

where it shows the Hello World example as above.
