    Default Best banner plugin for WP

    Hi all

    I am looking for at banner plugin for my Wordpress affiliate site. The theme that I am currently using does have a banner feature in place but the functionalities are very limited. It is also optimized for Adsense so it is basically of no use.

    I am looking for a plugin where I can control banners in many different places; header, mid-article, sidebars etc. And I would also like to be able to put banners in rotation, change tracking codes etc. in one central place.

    I searched the forum and it seems as if AdRotate is popular. Is AdRotate what I am looking for or do you have better suggestions?

    Best Regards
    Jiveman

    u will prolly need something with shortcodes so you can insert the zone 'triggers' in the right bits in your templates + add conditional logic.
    [i guess most will use 'widgets' tho, so you can drop zones in headers,footers, sidebars easily no doubt]

    some options

    I have seen adrotate used regularly also, I have only just recently starting looking at it on a site.

    I also have a simple little php ad rotator (free) that I call in places manually. It is not database driven, only a few lines of code, but grabs a banner, link and even image title from a text file. For multiple sizes, or to set different zones, create multiple text files by different names.

    I do recall needed to set the site up to allow php code to run in text widgets forever ago, but I do not recall that being very difficult to do.

    Happy to show anyone an example if you want.

    /side note: Obviously if you wants stats etc, a plugin may be a better option, but nice to have plenty of options.

    can get these via GTM click rules, so not really a 'must' in ad plugins i think.

    I usually use Custom banners plugin - it's quite simple, so it shouldn't be a problem to make changes and modify the banner look
