Google adverts won’t show
I think I may have posted this in the wrong area, it should be Elated, can you move please.
I can’t get Adsense banners to show at the bottom of my page. I am trying footer widget 1 and either text or PHP widget to display the code, which shows up OK in the page source, but looks like the attachment, a red box (and too small).
The code is just as provided by Google. Shown below (with some bits specific to me removed).
[removed]<!--
google_ad_client = "removed";
/* Banner advert */
google_ad_slot = "removed";
google_ad_width = 468;
google_ad_height = 60;
//-->

When I hover over the advert it does show a link to an advertiser, so it seems to be working OK for the advert, just not showing it properly in the page. Any ideas?

I’ve tried wrapping the code (which has not cut and paste properly above) in a custom div, and creating some CSS for that div which specifies a height of 60px (the banner height), no effect, also a min-height, no effect, tried !important too, no effect. I just can’t seem to shake off either the red box or get it to a proper height of 60px required to show the banner :(
If you could provide a link to the problem, I could better inspect the output than a screenshot.
You could try wrapping your script in raw tags:
[raw]....your script….[/raw]
Adverts won’t show in the body of posts and pages either. So this is a link to a test page rather than leave broken adverts live on my main site:

In the above example I have just used the supplied Google code to cut and paste, I have not tried wrapping it in a custom div, as that didn’t work anyway as per my example above. Thanks.
If you’ll open master.css, just remove this:
iframe {
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
height: 5px;
border: 1px solid red;
}
I’m not sure why that is in there or how it got there.
Thanks Casey - fixed 
The iframe CSS is present in another Elated site I did too, so I think it must have been in the original download (I don’t think I added it, as I have never used iframes in those sites).
Thanks, I’ll make sure it’s removed if it is in the repository.
