    Hi,

    I’m not too great at CSS so was wondering if it was possible to add a leaderboard 768×90 adsense block to my blog in the twenty ten theme directly under the navigation and header and before the title and content etc.

    If it changes anything I have switched the sidebar from the right to the left already.

    Thanks In Advance

    Ah I didn’t read it right, sorry, didn’t see it was just the generic 2010 theme.

    Um, you should need to add code to the php files directly, not so much the CSS file. I don’t have a vanilla copy installed but I would assume that you would add the Adsense code somewhere in the header.php file.

    Hi,
    Try my website, funny you could not find it online, there is a twenty ten child theme with this setup you can download.

    The sample has the code and uses a widgetized area and template parts to load the widget into the theme.

    Ok!

    Mark this one resolved please.

    Just my thoughts:
    You say you are new to theme development, as you are using the twenty ten theme you have either created a child theme or renamed the default theme?

    There is a new version of WordPress at RC2 stage, once this is released any changes to the default ‘twenty ten’ theme will be lost if you use the automatic upgrade.

    I am not a fan of hard-coding directly into the pages, that is why I would use a widget area, then the theme is portable and the ad can be changed, you might want to run a specific ad for a period from another provider.

    With a widgetized area your customer / site admin could just replace the link in a text widget, hard-coded into the theme not as easy.

    Regards

    David
