Hello,

Love the theme, but I've been tinkering and have perhaps altered something and caused an adsense that is placed in the loop to disappear.

I deleted the code and reinstalled it as

<?php if ( is_front_page() AND $bfa_ata['postcount'] == 3 ) { ?>
ADSENSE CODE HERE
<?php } ?>

But I haven't been able to get it to come back, so I'm guessing I've crossed streams somewhere.

Based on the dropoff in impressions, the image ad vanished yesterday. The only changes I made to the site in that time frame was some work on a custom template for related posts, editing the size of the page numbers that appear with the nextpage tag, and removing some of the padding on the page/post items to tighten up the front page.

All the changes were fairly simple (except for my inability to center the images on the related posts template), so I don't think they could've caused the ad to vanish, but I don't know what else would.

Thanks in advance for any help. This is my site if that can help solve this mystery...

What version of Atahualpa and WP?
where did you put that code?

I knew I'd leave something out.

Wordpress is 2.9.2 and Atahualpa is 3.4.9.

The code is placed in the Loop box on the Style/Edit Center Column as the given examples on that page suggest.

please copy and past the entire contents of 'The LOOP' so I can see what you have. If there is something that is private, send it to me in a PM

Thank you for your help/patience.

I'm not sure if I'm allowed to repost the Adsense code, but it's precisely copied from Google with no alterations. Here's the rest of the contents of the loop box:

<?php /* For SINGLE post pages if activated at ATO -> Next/Previous Navigation: */ bfa_next_previous_post_links('Top'); ?> <?php /* Post Container starts here */ if ( function_exists('post_class') ) { ?> <div <?php if ( is_page() ) { post_class('post'); } else { post_class("$odd_or_even"); } ?> id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>"> <?php } else { ?> <div class="<?php echo ( is_page() ? 'page ' : '' ) . $odd_or_even . ' post" id="post-'; the_ID(); ?>"> <?php } ?> <?php bfa_post_kicker('<div class="post-kicker">','</div>'); ?> <?php bfa_post_headline('<div class="post-headline">','</div>'); ?> <?php bfa_post_byline('<div class="post-byline">','</div>'); ?> <?php bfa_post_bodycopy('<div class="post-bodycopy clearfix">','</div>'); ?> <?php bfa_post_pagination('<p class="post-pagination"><strong>'.__('Pages:','atahualpa').'</strong>','</p>'); ?> <?php bfa_post_footer('<div class="post-footer">','</div>'); ?> </div><!-- / Post -->

<?php if ( is_front_page() AND $bfa_ata['postcount'] == 3 ) { ?>
<script type="text/javascript">ADSENSE
</script>
<?php } ?>

I've tried a simple test using the basic 'postcount' php to add a small snippet of text and I couldn't get it to appear on the front page either.

Could I have done something to violate the conditions, so that "third post" trigger never gets tripped?

The only formatting (mucking) I've done was to

-add some text formatting to page numbers in the "bfa_post_parts.php". I did remove some code from the pagination section so that the page numbers wouldn't appear on the main page, but I did that weeks ago.

-adapted a custom template for related posts and added some css inserts to govern it.

-changed the padding on the various post/page items

it's got to be something else you did, or the adsence script.

I just stuck your code into The LOOP at my site, took out the <script...> and </script> and I see the word ADSENCE on the third post.
