HOW TO

You can display the banners by shortcodes, PHP functions or Widgets.

Shortcode

From v1.4.0 you can use the a new shortcode and a news attribute to display banners only for mobile or desktop.
Let’s see some example:

[wp_bannerize_pro mobile="1" id="1678"] 

The banner with id 1768 will be displayed only on mobile device.

[wp_bannerize_pro desktop="1" id="1678"] 

The banner with id 1768 will be displayed only on desktop device.
Of course, you may need to display more info. In this case yoy can use the new shortcode to wrap any contents.

[wp_bannerize_pro_mobile] <h3>You're from mobile</h3> [wp_bannerize_pro id="1678"] [/wp_bannerize_pro_mobile] 

The above shortcode, will display the banner with id 1678 only for mobile device.

[wp_bannerize_pro_desktop] <h3>You're from desktop</h3> [wp_bannerize_pro id="1678"] [/wp_bannerize_pro_desktop] 

The above shortcode, will display the banner with id 1678 only for desktop device.

Of course, you may also

From v1.1.0 you can use the new shortcode to display geo localized banners.

! Remember to get your own API KEY from IPStack service.

Let’s see some example:

[wp_bannerize_pro_geo city="rome"] <h3>You're from Rome</h3> [wp_bannerize_pro id="1678"] [/wp_bannerize_pro_geo] 

The above shortcode, will display the banner with id 1678 only for visitors from Rome.

Let’s see more sample.

[wp_bannerize_pro_geo city="Rome"] Only for Rome [/wp_bannerize_pro_geo] [wp_bannerize_pro_geo city="rome"] Only for Rome [/wp_bannerize_pro_geo] [wp_bannerize_pro_geo city="rome,london"] Only for Rome and Landon [/wp_bannerize_pro_geo] [wp_bannerize_pro_geo region_name="lazio"] Only for region (Italy) Lazio [/wp_bannerize_pro_geo] [wp_bannerize_pro_geo country_code="IT"] Italian only [/wp_bannerize_pro_geo] [wp_bannerize_pro_geo country_name="italy"] Italian only [/wp_bannerize_pro_geo] [wp_bannerize_pro_geo zip_code="00137"] Wow [/wp_bannerize_pro_geo] [wp_bannerize_pro_geo ip="80.182.82.82"] Only for me [/wp_bannerize_pro_geo] [wp_bannerize_pro_geo time_zone="europe/rome"] Rome/Berlin time zone [/wp_bannerize_pro_geo] 

Also, have a look to the new widget UI with geo-localization settings.

// single banners [wp_bannerize_pro id="1678"] [wp_bannerize_pro id="my-banner-slug"] [wp_bannerize_pro id="1678,my-banner-slug"] // random [wp_bannerize_pro numbers="1" orderby="random"] // random with category [wp_bannerize_pro orderby="random" categories="56"] [wp_bannerize_pro orderby="random" categories="sidebar-blog"] // post categories [wp_bannerize_pro post_categories="news,events"] [wp_bannerize_pro post_categories="34,67"] 

PHP Function

You may use either wp_bannerize_pro() or get_wp_bannerize_pro() to display your banner. The main difference between them is that get_wp_bannerize_pro() return the HTML output for the banner, for example:

<?php // Display a single banner if( function_exists( 'wp_bannerize_pro' ) ) { wp_bannerize_pro( array( 'id' => '156' ) ); } 

By using get_wp_bannerize_pro() you should add echo function to display the output:

<?php // Display a single banner if( function_exists( 'wp_bannerize_pro' ) ) { echo get_wp_bannerize_pro( array( 'id' => '156' ) ); } 

More example below.

<?php // Display a single banner if( function_exists( 'wp_bannerize_pro' ) ) { wp_bannerize_pro( array( 'id' => '156' ) ); } // Display a set of banners by a comma separated string if( function_exists( 'wp_bannerize_pro' ) ) { wp_bannerize_pro( array( 'id' => '156,157,158' ) ); } // Display a set of banners by an array if( function_exists( 'wp_bannerize_pro' ) ) { wp_bannerize_pro( array( 'id' => array( 156, 157, 158 ) ) ); } // Display a set of banners by mixed id and slug if( function_exists( 'wp_bannerize_pro' ) ) { wp_bannerize_pro( array( 'id' => array( 156, 'my-banner-slug', 158 ) ) ); } // Display all banners from banner category "sidebar" in random order if( function_exists( 'wp_bannerize_pro' ) ) { wp_bannerize_pro( array( 'orderby' => 'random', 'categories' => 'sidebar' ) ); } // Display one banner from banner category "sidebar" in random order if( function_exists( 'wp_bannerize_pro' ) ) { wp_bannerize_pro( array( 'orderby' => 'random', 'numbers' => 1, 'categories' => 'sidebar' ) ); } // Display banners from banner category "sidebar" and post categories news and events if( function_exists( 'wp_bannerize_pro' ) ) { wp_bannerize_pro( array( 'category' => 'sidebar', 'post_categories' => 'news,events' ) ); } // Or... as array of slug if( function_exists( 'wp_bannerize_pro' ) ) { wp_bannerize_pro( array( 'categories' => 'sidebar', 'post_categories' => array( 'news', 'events' ) ) ); } // Or... as array of Title if( function_exists( 'wp_bannerize_pro' ) ) { wp_bannerize_pro( array( 'categories' => 'sidebar', 'post_categories' => array( 'News', 'Events' ) ) ); } // Or... as array of ids if( function_exists( 'wp_bannerize_pro' ) ) { wp_bannerize_pro( array( 'categories' => 'sidebar', 'post_categories' => array( 24, 67 ) ) ); } // Display a set of banners only for mobile device if( function_exists( 'wp_bannerize_pro' ) ) { wp_bannerize_pro( [ 'mobile' => true, 'id' => [156,157,158] ] ); } // Display a set of banners only for desktop device if( function_exists( 'wp_bannerize_pro' ) ) { wp_bannerize_pro( [ 'desktop' => true, 'id' => [156,157,158] ] ); } 

The code above shows banners only for the posts categories 13 or 14, for the “right_sidebar” banner category.

or in your post:

[wp_bannerize_pro categories="adv" orderby="random" numbers="3"] 

The default HTML output for above code is:

Params

 Name | Default | Description ------------------+--------------+------------------------------------------------ id | null | ID or slug comma separate (default null) categories | [] | Banner categories slug or id (default '') post_categories | [] | Any string, int or array of string, id.
