New version of AdZonia added in-page Help tab. In AdZonia list, add and edit page, you will get the On-Screen help tab describing how to use AdZonia.
There are 4 alternative ways displaying AdZonia ads:
-
Shortcode — The simplest is using a shortcode. The shortcode is that simple, just put
[adzonia id="#"]into the body of any post or page or shortcode enabled widget. Just replace the hash (#) with the ad ID. - Widget — Using the AdZonia widget into any widget enabled area or sidebar. Just drag and drop the "AdZonia" widget into the sidebar, and choose the active (published) ad from the list.
-
PHP Code — If you are a developer and want to use the PHP code into your template (theme) directly, just use this:
<?php if( function_exists('show_adzonia') ) show_adzonia(#); ?>. Just replace the hash (#) with the ad ID. - Predefined Areas — a new beta feature is added to show advertisement in predefined areas, directly from the admin panel without any code. Just you have to set the location where you want to show the ad. (it’s an additional feature will work beside all the 3 mentioned above)
