The purpose of the notification is to ask (or advise) your visitors to whitelist your website. Whitelisting means your ads are displayed, and that's more revenue to keep you motivated to create more content! What makes Ad Blocking Advisor different is that it is not limited to just one popular ad provider. In fact, the plugin inserts a transparent 1 pixel image in the footer of your site. You'll never see it! But the containing Div is named a very common name that ad blockers trigger off of. When that 1 pixel image gets hidden by ad blockers, then the plugin will display the banner asking (advising) them to whitelist your site! Features: * Quickly change the text that's displayed in the notification banner. * Easily change the location on your site that the banner is displayed. * Easily change the background color. * Easily change the font color. * Easily change the font size. * Allow or disallow setting a cookie. * When the visitor clicks the close (X) icon to close your banner, if cookies are allowed, then the banner will remain hidden until the cookie expires. * Easily change the cookie expiration date. * Add your own custom CSS without fear of losing changes when the plugin updates. * Uninstalling the plugin will clean up all data it has stored in the WordPress database. == Installation == **Install** Installing Ad Blocking Advisor can be done from inside your WordPress admin panel by going to Plugins > Add New and searching for "Ad Blocking Advisor". 1.
