Ad Tags/Shortcodes

Once you have AdPlugg intalled, you can add AdPlugg Ad Tags to your site and they will be filled with any ads that you target to them from your account at adplugg.com.

You can add AdPlugg Ad Tags to Posts, Pages, theme files, etc.

The AdPlugg Widget simply adds an Ad Tag to your Widget Area. You could insert the same Ad Tag by other means if you wanted (by using a text widget for example).

Though they work in a similar fashion to Shortcodes, AdPlugg has chosen to use Ad Tags instead of shortcodes as they are more powerfull, more flexible, and more familiar to most users. You can read more about Ad Tags here.

FAQ

Why do I need an access code?

AdPlugg is a service (and it\'s free!). When you register, you get your own high powered, cloud based ad server/ad manager system. From your new AdPlugg account, you can serve ads to any number of sites using sophisticated scheduling and rotation strategies. In addition, AdPlugg will track your ad\'s impressions and clicks and provide you with detailed analytics. All of this is much too computationally expensive to attempt on a typical WordPress shared hosting account. So instead, AdPlugg was designed to run as a service separate from your website.

Once you\'ve registered, you are given an access code. You enter your access code into the AdPlugg WordPress Plugin settings so that your WordPress site can retrieve ads from your AdPlugg account.

You can sign up for a free AdPlugg account and get your access code by going here.
