• I can’t figure out how to remove google ads from my website without trashing the whole layout of the page. I inserted the code elements a while back and can’t remember what to remove and what to leave.

    can you link your website & do you know which page you inserted it into?

    thelovecomission.com I’ve got it on all the pages like a dumbass of course. I can post the code if I need to.

    Please post the code as well, especially the code that’s generating the advert

    This is the code from the Main Index Template. I inserted the same googleads code into the Page Template and the Single Post as well.

    Check your widgets. You have the Google script running in the #tertiary .widget-area

    Here’s the footer code. Going to check the widgets now also.

    pastebin! I was trying to remember what that site was. So I looked in the widgets menu area and I don’t see anything about google. I apologize for my ignorance guys.

    Two options – either look in “widgets” – there may be some google ad widget in there you can deactivate.

    Or simply edit the main index template and get rid of this:

    <script type="text/javascript"><!--
    google_ad_client = "ca-pub-6629725798987586";
    /* Like us on Facebook */
    google_ad_slot = "6541553565";
    google_ad_width = 728;
    google_ad_height = 90;
    //-->
    </script>
    <script type="text/javascript"
    src="https://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js">
    </script>

    I guess you’ll just have to go through each page and remove this

    <script type="text/javascript"
    src="https://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js">
    </script>

    Ok this is what it always does to me. I deleted the code recommended by nickaster. It only effected the main blog page of the site. No other pages changed – googleads still remains. But it has totally changed the format of the page now. You can see what I am talking about at the link above compared to the other pages on my site. I can repost the code as it sits now if needed.

    anevins I also tried your suggestion and it did the same thing. Googleads gone but page format or theme format or whatever all messed up.

    Or

    You could display:none (CSS) on #ads (or whatever element is containing it)

    Thread Starter theloveco-mission

    (@theloveco-mission)

    Come again?? You mean reinsert the code that was there but change one piece of it to say “none”???? Again I apologize for my inexperience. Thanks for your help!!
