with your ad code being Javascript with the <script> tags.

Thank you so much for such a fast response!

I just tried it and have tried different variations before, but unfortunately it doesn’t seem to have any effect. My site is https://volaretranslations.com, and I’m trying to get an ad inserted on the homepage between the first and second posts.

Which template file are you using?

I’m using the index.php file — titled “Main Index Template”.

If there is a home.php, try that; or ask in your theme forum which file is used for home with posts display: https://www.ads-software.com/support/theme/ample

That did it! I was missing that step. Thanks so much Mark, you are a genius! Much appreciated.
