    HI Romolo,

    just a few thoughts on displaying mobile ads.
    You have probably the best AdSense plugin around for wordpress. Despite sometimes ads break up the text a bit when inserted along images, it’s pretty great.
    Also, you already have the best code for detecting a mobile device accessing the site without depending in any other tools (for instance, jetpack).

    So, may i suggest adding options for ads targeted for mobile devices?
    Since the code for hiding ads from mobile devices is already implemented, you can do something pretty simple:

    – Create another section in settings page for desired mobile ads sizes, similar to existent page – the presets are already there;

    – Then,
    if_mobile?
    => hide desktop ads (already done);
    => show mobile ads instead, based on preferences.

    OR, instead of showing Ad Type 1, Ad Type 2, Ad Type 3, you can get the user to choose the mobile alternative for each of the ads, so no other change is needed.
    Than, you can,
    a) either hide mobile ads completely,
    b) let the desktop ads be replaced with their mobile siblings.

    I can beta test if you’d like.

    Thanks and regards!
    Afonso

    I had already thought to your solution.
    But I think that Google wants to push advertisers to use responsive ads.

    These have already been implemented using
    “asynchronous ad (Beta)”

    But then you have to work on css

    That’s too much from me. Can’t really code ??
    I’ve tried async ads but it really it’s a hit or miss, out of the box.

    Thanks.

    You must add a css into header theme:
    https://support.google.com/adsense/answer/3543893

    For example:
    <style type=”text/css”>
    .adsgoogle1 { width: 320px; height: 50px; }
    @media (min-width:500px) { .adslot_1 { width: 468px; height: 60px; } }
    @media (min-width:800px) { .adslot_1 { width: 728px; height: 90px; } }
    </style>

    Anyway, I understand your difficulty.
    I also understand very little about css.

    In future versions, I will work on your idea.

    The CSS they suggest doesn’t seem to work for the iPhone, atleast not using the plugin currently.

    In my opinion, the solution responsive of google is still very beta.

    In a few days I will publish a new release, which will simulate the responsive,
    using standard ads (no responsive)

    I do this to help all those users who are not graphics
    (including me)

    Hi Alfonso.
    in the last version, you can found the dynamic responsive format.
    It should satisfy your request
