Is there a way to enable the ads on the site when viewed using minerva? I cannot find any option.

There is no built-in option to show ads, nor has MediaWiki such an option, so maybe you can give a little bit more information about how you integrated ads on your site.

Oh, well, in that case, I've added the ad code into the Template Monobook.php. I figured I could do the same for minerva, but I can't find it in the MobileFrontend folder.

So...no idea?

I figured it out from this thread after all (https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Thread:Project:Support_desk/How_i_display_Adsense_ads_on_Mediawiki_Mobile%3F_(MobileFrontend_Extension). Only problem is that a sidebar add can't be added since mobile frontend doesn't have a sidebar. Will a sidebar be ever introduced?

There is a flyout menu. Remember the target device for MobileFrontend. A sidebar, like on the desktop page, would take too much space :)

Of course, but is there a way to add more links to that menu?

Also, is it normal for it not to display the categories of a pages? Because I can't find a parameter that controls that.

Categories are currently displayed in mobile beta only.
