[Pro] Inserting code

Freeway
1

Hi everyone. I want to insert some ad code as per the following instructions:

Open your site’s main page (i.e. - template file, or header file) in an HTML editor.
Search for " <body " within the HTML and insert the Ad Code immediately after the close bracket of the body tag " > ".
Once done, make sure to Save the changes to your HTML.

How do I do this in FWP 5.5 (I don’t have an HTML editor)

Thanks

Page>HTML Markup and choose After from the picker down the bottom left.

Paste your code into that dialogue box. OK. GTG

Alternatively if you want this ad to appear in a specific place on your page try Insert>Markup Item and paste the code in there. Position the resulting box on your FW page where you want the ad to appear.

… while I tend to recommend the CrowBar action these days if the “to insert code” is case sensitive with that wrapping p-tag.

Seek http://actionsforge.com/ for it and have a look for:

One more thing… the ad works fine now, but it takes the viewer away from my site when they click it, whereas I want them to stay and for the ad’s destination to open in a new tab/window. The Spawn New Window action does not do it - the ad isn’t a simple URL but contains affiliate info similar to this -

So, how can I get it to open a new tab/window?

You will need tio change the inserted code to include target: _blank

Can you post all the code here that ytou have inserted - or post a link to the online page.

If you post it here then type 4 ~, then a new line, paste your code, new line, 4 ~. This will create

My code here

From what I can see the ad is being served with the link created already and so you have no control over the link to change it to open in a new window.

Unless there is a fancy JS method?

Affiliate Windows T & C may also disallow you to do this.

That’s a shame - anybody know a fancy JS method?

The Affiliate Windows T & C doesn’t say anything about the link opening in another window.

You could ask Affiliate Windows if there is an option to do this from their end.
