How can I place advertisements, like banners, without paying for a plugin?

How can I place advertisements, like banners, without paying for a plugin?

It usually is IN the theme settings. OR if not, manually inject the code to various files (not good).

Actually I figured out!
Go here: https://zolahost.com/add-advertisements-osclass/
It worked like a charm!

Info: The widgets are shown even if you have add blocker.
Bender theme has some advertising places that are blocked with addblocker.

Marius, how can I use the widgets?

[marius-ciclistu]

In your admin you can input  widgets in 2 places. Under the header and above the footer(bender theme). Also you can input adverts in your theme settings.
Look in the menu , I can't remember the exact place.

I got it, Thanks Marius!

I can manage to place advertisements already... but I was wondering, how can I place different banners, lets say in the header, so it rotates?

[marius-ciclistu]

You can input adverts:
Under looks menu(first one under items/ads, the 4th from up ->down -Theme settings

You can input widgest:
Under looks menu(first one under items/ads, the 4th from up ->down - Widgets.

lets say in the header, so it rotates?

If you want to add more widgests, make them in some .php files placed into your theme folder, and include them into main.php, item.php etc.

I'm not shure what you mean by rotate..

EDIT:

If you want to say that you want banner1.php  and banner2.php and banner3.php to show randomlly into the header you can relate to :

Code: [Select]

<?php  include ('banner' . rand(1,3). '.php');?>
If you want to show them in relation with the category name for example, you can conditionate with
osc_category_name($locale = "") - Gets the name of the current category

Thanks again Marius!
 That is what I want. That everytime you refresh the page the advertisement changes.

I hope it works. I didn't test it.
