 * I know this is a real simple question, forgive my programming ignorance, but 
   I cant seem to figure out the proper place to put in ad code for Google AdSense.
   It’s simple JavaScript stuff.
 * Can anyone please tell me where I need to input the following code:
    <script 
   type=”text/javascript”><!– google_ad_client = “pub-******************”; google_ad_width
   = 120; google_ad_height = 600; google_ad_format = “120x600_as”; google_ad_type
   = “text_image”; google_ad_channel =””; //–></script> <script type=”text/javascript”
   src=”[http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js”&gt](http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js”&gt);
   </script>
 * Much thanks ~

 * Wherever you want the ads to display. And don’t use the stupid useless wysiwyg/
   RTE when you input the code or it will be totally borked, and then you’ll be 
   back here asking what happened with that.

 * Thanks, I was just adding things to the index.php file in the wrong folder…

 * Oy…. yup. That will cause some serious heartburn. Keep in mind for the future
   that most anything you want to do with wp will need to be tweaked in the theme
   folder.
