The Google AdSense extension allows to easily add Google AdSense advertisements to the sidebar of your wiki. This extension requires an account with Google's AdSense.
Installing
- Download and place the file(s) in a directory called
GoogleAdSense
in yourextensions/
folder.
- Add the following code at the bottom of your LocalSettings.php:
require_once "$IP/extensions/GoogleAdSense/GoogleAdSense.php";
// Replace this with your own publisher ID (google_ad_client / data-ad-client) $wgGoogleAdSenseClient = 'none'; // Client ID for your AdSense script (example: ca-pub-1234546403419693) // Replace this with your AdSense ad unit ID (google_ad_slot / data-ad-slot) $wgGoogleAdSenseSlot = 'none'; // Slot ID for your AdSense script (example: 1234580893)
(You can get your publisher ID and ad unit ID from the "Get code" page: Get and copy the ad code.)
- Add any of the optional settings below - if your settings deviate from the defaults:
// Width of the AdSense unit, specified in your AdSense account (google_ad_width / data-ad-width)
$wgGoogleAdSenseWidth = 120;
// Height of the AdSense unit, specified in your AdSense account (google_ad_height / data-ad-height)
$wgGoogleAdSenseHeight = 240;
// Source URL of the AdSense script. No need to change - it can't deviate from the defaults.
$wgGoogleAdSenseSrc = '//pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js';
// Show the AdSense box only for anonymous users: true or false. Default is false.
$wgGoogleAdSenseAnonOnly = false;
// This can be anything you like. Default is 'none'.
$wgGoogleAdSenseID = 'none';
- If you want to add a "Text/image, 200x200" into the Vector skin you will need to shift the left panel over slightly. Add the following to the "MediaWiki:Vector.css" page
#content,
#footer {
margin-left: 11em;
}
#left-navigation {
left: 11em;
}
- The default portlet label ("Advertisements") can be changed to "Sponsored Links" on the "MediaWiki:Googleadsense" page. Please note: no other variations are permitted[1].
- Remember to disable ad-blocking services such as AdBlock when you want to see if the extension is working!
Done – Navigate to Special:Version on your wiki to verify that the extension is successfully installed.
