   We need to add an ad in the post loop directly after the 1st (full-width) featured post. I've looked at the code, but I have no idea how to add.

   This is the code we used in the old theme but I tried this everywhere within the loop-index.php
   
<?php if ($adcount == 1) : ?>

   <!-- BuySellAds.com Zone Code -->
   <div style="margin: 0 0 20px 0; height: 126px;">
   <div id="bsap_1252797" class="bsarocks bsap_b8c7a02764400e5ca5113690f392c085"></div>
   </div>
   <!-- End BuySellAds.com Zone Code -->

   <?php endif; $adcount++; ?>

   <?php comments_template(); // include comments template ?>

   <?php $adcount++; ?>


   This is important to get this ad inserted in the proper place.

   Please advise,

   GF

   Hey,

   are you sure you're not missing any scripts? It seems you need javascript to make this do anything.

   Until I got a response, I inserted this code below the post loop:

   <div style="margin: 0 0 20px 0; height: 126px;">
<div id="bsap_1252797" class="bsarocks bsap_b8c7a02764400e5ca5113690f392c085"></div>
</div>

   It works fine - but I need it under the top featured post.....would assume it needs some sort of counter to make sure it lands after the first post and not under every post.

   I'd change the counter code from:
   

   <?php if ($adcount == 1) : ?>

   to:
   

   <?php
   $adcount = 0;
   if ($adcount < 1) {
   ?>

   The code will only show for the first post then.

   Can you tell me where in the loop or code, I would place this code to get it to show after the 1st "article"?

   Thanks,

   Ok in this case use:
   

   <?php
   $adcount = 0;
   if ($adcount == 1) {
   ?>

   The only difference to your code is that I defined $adcount first.

   Dude,

   I do appreciate your response, but I'm still confused about how and where to add the code and exactly what the code should look like. I know nothing about php, so I certainly be greatful, if you could provide an example of how the code would look with the ad and where in the loop-index.php the code would be inserted.

   Thanks again,

   GF

   You need to place:
   

   $adcount = 0;

   before the post loop and the if condition:

   <?php if ($adcount == 1) : ?>
   
   <!-- BuySellAds.com Zone Code -->
   <div style="margin: 0 0 20px 0; height: 126px;">
   <div id="bsap_1252797" class="bsarocks bsap_b8c7a02764400e5ca5113690f392c085"></div>
   </div>
   <!-- End BuySellAds.com Zone Code -->
   
   <?php endif; $adcount++; ?>

   inside the post loop.

   Thank you! Got it working, but I had to change

   <?php if ($adcount == 1) : ?>

   to

   <?php if ($adcount == 0) : ?>

   to show under the very top post.

   I really appreciate the help!
