EthicalAd: implement better positioning #311

Open humitos opened 6 months ago

humitos commented 6 months ago

We wrote the logic we want to implement in https://github.com/readthedocs/addons/pull/295#discussion_r1600375886

Placement preference for RTD ad injection:

Using stickybox image (These float if the screen is wide, automatically):

  • Sidebar like content (role=sidebar) (Currently we check for sidebar height, and if it's too long, we put it in the footer -- but this is probably not necessary?)
  • Footer like content (role=footer)
  • Main body content (role=main)

Using text:

  • Fixed footer (Not conflicting with the flyout?)

It would be good to review it again when polishing the ad integration.

After the initial deploy from yesterday, we may reconsider this and avoid showing an ad if it doesn't fit in the screen in a well known position.
