Hi

I am currently using Elite theme for my website. I would like to add ad space using widget below menu but above blog post. How do I do so?

Great question. You can add in a widget area with a bit of editing. Here’s what to do:

1. Go to the Appearance section in your WordPress dashboard and choose Edit.
2. From the list of files on your right, choose header.php
3. Scroll down to the very bottom of the file and create a new line below this:

   
   <?php } ?>
   

   Then add this there:

   
   (Be sure to copy all code directly from the support site and not the notification email)

   and save your changes.

4. Next edit the functions.php file and scroll down to the very bottom. Add this there:

   and save your changes.

That should add in a widget area that’s below the site’s main navigation menu. If you have any questions, let me know.

Have a great week,
Bill

Hi Robin
I followed instruction at https://support.organizedthemes.com/forums/topic/adding-ad-space-below-menu-above-blog-post/ to add widget above blog post. I managed to find a widget for it at wp dashboard-> widget. I added my adsense code using text widget, however, I cant seem to see this adsense appear at my blog above blog post eg http://handmade-jewelry-club.com/2015/08/learn-make-cherry-bangle-wire-jewelry.html What could have gone wrong?

Please ignore my question here. The widget is working now. Thanks a lot!
