Free ads plugin
Thomas Maier has developed Advanced Ads, a free plugin for WordPress 4.9 and up, tested up to version 5.8. This WP plugin gives you a simple way to manage your ads. It integrates with PHP version 5.6 and up and is available in twenty-seven languages.
Advanced Ads works with many ad types and networks, like Google AdSense, Amazon, and ads. It adds a specific ad block to the Gutenberg block editor, making it simple to create them on any page or post. Alternative options include AdSanity, AdRotate, and DoubleClick by Google.
Plugin features
Advanced Ads offers ad management and support different ad types. You can use it to display ads on your WordPress site and customize the display conditions.
You can display unlimited ad units, rotate them, or schedule them with ad management’s start time and end date. You can also create targeted ads based on content and users. Additionally, use it to add them into posts and pages without coding.
The plugin supports ad types like images, banners, and image banners. You can use it for affiliate marketing, and it supports networks like Google AdSense and Awin. It also lets you use the WordPress TinyMCE editor to create content-rich ads and inject CSS, HTML, JS, or PHP code. You can also use shortcodes from other plugins to insert into your ads.
You can place them anywhere with shortcodes or show them in the sidebar and widget areas with the plugin. Customize where they display by disabling them on certain pages, displaying them in blocks, or using a custom label.
Customize the display conditions based on:
- Posts, pages, and other post types
- Category, tags, and author
- Archive and special pages (e.g. 404 page)
- Hide them in the post feed on specific pages or from bots and web crawlers
Display customized ads
Advanced Ads helps you customize and display ads in widgets and within posts and pages on your site. It adds a block to the Gutenberg block editor, making it easy to use. It has many options on how to display them, and you can even use shortcodes within the editor. It also lets you hide ads based on specified criteria and from bots and web crawlers.
The latest release brought many improvements, like JavaScript delays, the unified layout of Next buttons in the wizard, and improved compatibility with PHP 8.
