If you don't enter any id, the system use the first publisher code that is found in the table. When you have add your publisher code into the database just add the adsense code in this way to template files where you wish to have the google ads:
Google

A sincere question here. What is the point of incorporating Google Adsense into your classifieds site? I can't see how the small amount of revenue you might earn will compensate for the users who drift off-site to make purchases elsewhere.

I know I must be missing something, what is it?

Google check/cheque

[seymourjames +]

If your site is free to place ads then their is a business model to be had - google cheques. Where I would personally draw the line is if the site is absolutely plastered with google ads. A couple of boxes in the side bar is fine. Perhaps the occasional banner on a non-competing page.

This site I did a long time ago did just fine in terms of google cheques and adverts: property in france . It is an old site and I do little active marketing for it. It just ticks over.

To be clear, when you guys refer to Google checks are you referring to what a Brit like me would call a cheque, i.e. a payment from Google. Or are you referring to a check of your website that Google makes as a result of your use of Adsense?

Hope I'm not coming across as too thick here . . .

[Eric Barnes]

They are meaning a check as in making money from Google.

[seymourjames +]

LOL - I must be getting tired and speaking too much French. Checks is actually Cheques. I am going to edit my post in total embarrassment.
