Sorted both of these problems out, is there any way the adverts show in a different way than a slider ? i.e. show images 1 by 1 without sliding.
Thanks
Also when clicking on the ads, can I do it so it opens a new window?
Thanks

You can find all options for rotating ads on https://wpadvancedads.com/manual/rotate-ad/. I am sure that one of them will fulfill your needs.

Yes, but only for ads which have a link created by Advanced Ads. In the basic version, this is only happening for image ads. With the Tracking add-on, you can also wrap ad content in trackable links which can open in a new window. All this is limited to ad codes that don’t have links in them. For ad networks like AdSense, ads will always open in the same window and Advanced Ads can’t change it. This would be against their terms.
Please let me know if you need anything else.

Thanks Thomas.
I want to install the tracking add-on.
I had another advert plugin on my website and it slowed the website drastically as it made calls to admin-ajax.php every 3 seconds (everytime another ad showed).
Will this do it when installing the tracking add-on to count the number of impressions?
Thanks
Mat
Hi math1991,
there are basically three tracking methods and one of them is using admin-ajax.php.
The basic tracking method, which does not use AJAX, only works on sites that are not cached. When you want to track data within WordPress and your site is cached then you’d need to track them with AJAX. We bundle all ads into one call, except when you are showing ads with a delay, like in an automatic Refresh (Pro) or delayed PopUp.
The only alternative to AJAX is using the tracking integration with Google Analytics.
I am happy to answer more questions about Tracking through email support. This forum is for questions regarding the basic version only.
Thanks,
Thomas
