//Insert ads after third paragraph of post content. add_filter( 'the_content', 'insert_post_ads' ); function insert_post_ads( $content ) { $ad_code = '<div>Insert your Ads code here</div>'; if ( is_single() && ! is_admin() ) { return prefix_insert_after_paragraph( $ad_code, 3, $content ); } return $content; } // Parent Function function prefix_insert_after_paragraph( $insertion, $paragraph_id, $content ) { $closing_p = '</p>'; $paragraphs = explode( $closing_p, $content ); foreach ($paragraphs as $index => $paragraph) { if ( trim( $paragraph ) ) { $paragraphs[$index] .= $closing_p; } if ( $paragraph_id == $index + 1 ) { $paragraphs[$index] .= $insertion; } } return implode( '', $paragraphs ); } |

I have implemented first code and it perfectly work. But iam not good at coding so can you tell me how to show multiple ads? This second code how to implement it properly can you help me with it?
Also for multiple ads do i need to create second in article ads code? Or i can use the same ads code twice?
Hi Ashikur,
For multiple ads, you need to create seperate ad code for each one. Don’t use same code twice.
And to show multiple ads with in post content, i have mentioned multiple ads code in article. You can use like this:
$first_ad_code = ‘First ad code goes here’;
$second_ad_code = ‘Second ad code goes here’;
if ( is_single() && ! is_admin() ) {
$content = prefix_insert_after_paragraph( $first_ad_code, 2, $content );
$content = prefix_insert_after_paragraph( $second_ad_code, 4, $content );
return $content;
}
return $content;
}
tnx for replying.
sry to bother you.
i have successfully implemented first code(which is single ad showing code)
i have second code from your post.
but what iam not understanding is to where i paste the second code(after putting both adsesnse code)
Can You update this post with this:
like first Ad on after 3rd paragraph and second Ad after 6th paragraph than do this change in code.
making a combination of code as one.
i know iam making confuse you.
i just want one code instead of two, where i just paste two adsense code and be done with it
will
$first_ad_code = ‘Ads code goes here’;
$second_ad_code = $first_ad_code;
if ( is_single() && ! is_admin() ) {
$content = prefix_insert_after_paragraph( $first_ad_code, 3, $content );
$content = prefix_insert_after_paragraph( $second_ad_code, 6, $content );
return $content;
}
return $content;
}
this code work? without adding any other code from first one?
You have to add this function prefix_insert_after_paragraph() code too.
$first_ad_code = ‘Ads code goes here’;
$second_ad_code = $first_ad_code;
if ( is_single() && ! is_admin() ) {
$content = prefix_insert_after_paragraph( $first_ad_code, 3, $content );
$content = prefix_insert_after_paragraph( $second_ad_code, 6, $content );
return $content;
}
return $content;
}
// Parent Function
function prefix_insert_after_paragraph( $insertion, $paragraph_id, $content )
{
$closing_p = ”;
$paragraphs = explode( $closing_p, $content );
foreach ($paragraphs as $index => $paragraph) {
if ( trim( $paragraph ) ) {
$paragraphs[$index] .= $closing_p;
}
if ( $paragraph_id == $index + 1 ) {
$paragraphs[$index] .= $insertion;
}
}
return implode( ”, $paragraphs );
}
is it okay now?
if not pls can you add it properly and show me?
Thank you very much, your code really helped me! I’ve changed it a bit, so I could set positions for headings instead of paragraphs.
