Adding banner ads to calendar pages

[Andaiye Taylor]

Greetings — I’d like to add a banner ad to the top of my calendar pages, but entering the HTML into the “HTML above” area settings doesn’t achieve this. How do I add banners to the top of this highly trafficked and monetizable page? 🙂

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hey there,

If the “before HTML” setting won’t save the data, then it means you should use the “before HTML” filter. It requires a bit of coding, but don’t worry, it’s quite simple. Basically, just drop a little function into your theme’s functions.php file like I demonstrated for your here:

Ad whatever HTML you need for your adds, and it should work quite well.

Let us know if that helps, cheers!

George — thanks so much for the quick response! Will try this shortly.

Great! Let us know how it goes 🙂

Just to be clear, I should replace the sections in red above with the HTML, correct?

[George]

Hey @A,

The only relevant part for you to replace is this part of that code:





That is an <a> link wrapped around an <img> image tag. You can customize both to your needs 🙂

I hope this information helps – if it doesn’t, let us know in more detail what things aren’t clear to you. If they’re general HTML-related questions, we can point you to some great resources online for learning about these tags and how to use them.

Thank you!
George
