Hello @fhwebdesign and thanks for your question. Site Kit places the initial Auto Ads code to connect your site to AdSense but does not have the setting to change position of anchor ads. This must be done manually in the AdSense placed code as explained in the guide you have provided.
For help or anymore information on this you can reach out to the AdSense support team.
If you have any further questions on the Site Kit plugin then please do let us know and we will be happy to assist.
Hello @adamdunnage , thanks for your quick reply.
Isn’t the code for the auto ads placed automatically within the site kit plugin so I cannot modify that part of code?
No problem at all. Site Kit places the auto ads code for you onto your site which you will need to manually alter as per the AdSense guide you provided. You cannot amend this from the Site Kit plugin.
But, if this code is placed by Site Kit, how can I modify it? It isn’t hardcoded in the theme.
@fhwebdesign If you are looking to change the position of the anchor ads then you will need to have your AdSense code placed manually on your site rather than by Site Kit.
You can do this by going to Site Kit > Settings > Connected Services > AdSense and click on edit. From here you need to switch the ‘Let Site Kit place AdSense code on your sit’ tick box off and save the changes.
Then you will need to follow the guide you provided adding the example code into the <head> tag of your site.
Once you have done this Site Kit should pick up the manually placed code and you should still be able to see your AdSense stats within Site Kit and have your anchor ads positioned how you wish.
Hope this helps but the AdSense Help Centre has lots of resources for this and if you do have anymore Site Kit questions please let me know.
As we haven’t received a response, I’ll mark this as resolved. Feel free to open a new support topic if you continue to encounter issues, or reopen this topic and we’d be happy to assist. Thank you!
