Nope you're not missing anything. Those were just placeholders that I didn't end up using and forgot to remove. Adsense works just fine without it. Simply copy/paste the script code Google gives you into a layout
or include
where you want it to appear.
For the theme's demo site I dropped it in right above the footer if you want to see a live example.
In the previous version, it used to put the ads for you. Do you think its should do it now also?
With this newer version there are custom head
and footer
includes so you can copy/paste in AdSense scripts (and other things).
I found that's more flexible. Simply take the script Google gives you after setting up your ad unit and paste it into footer/custom.html
, in default.html
layout (as I've done with the demo site), or anywhere else you'd prefer ads to appear.
If you check out the demo site (gh-pages
branch) you can see how I handled it, using the responsive ad unit. These tend to work better with the theme since they adapt to various screen sizes (mobile, tablet, etc.) without overflowing the parent container.
<script async src="//pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>
<div align="center" style="margin: 1em 0;">
<ins class="adsbygoogle"
style="display:block; border-bottom: initial;"
data-ad-client="ca-pub-7328585512091257"
data-ad-slot="3049671934"
data-ad-format="auto"></ins>
</div>
<script>
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
</script>
@mmistakes Is this still the way to do it if you're using minimal mistakes as a remote theme?
@DeveloperPaul123 Yes.
@mmistakes If I use the remote theme, how do I add content to the custom header file, when I have no access to the _layout folder when using the remote theme? Is there something I have missed?

Ohhh thanks. I think I had overseen that on the docs. Thanks a lot

When I tested my website on my old laptop(15.6 inc), I noticed that the design of the sidebar with the google ad was slightly distorted. When I remove the google ad from the sidebar, the problem goes away. I did what you said but the problem still persists. You can see the screenshots below.
I tested my website on google, safari and opera;
chrome : 108.0.5359.125 (64 bit) firefox : 108.0.1 (64 bit) opera: version 94.0.4606.38
First, Thanks for the great web template. :+1:
Based on the
3.3.3
release, I have been using this template on my website here I can see the_config.yml
file has a spot for google ad id information here but its not getting used any where.Am i missing something here or is this functionality not available?
