I can use the <!-- google_ad_section_start --> <!-- google_ad_section_end --> tags to target a specific area in the site.
You are wrong in this aspect - I read this tag up on the google adsense help pages: that tag is meant to narrow down the actual textual content of your site. I have wrapped the {GALLERY}-token in template.html into thos tags, but this will not give you the desired result. Google adsense
does take your album name into account already. What you're trying to do is actually giving it more weight or importance. You can do that with regular HTML methods, as the tag needs to be more important in SEO terms. You can accomplish this by wrapping the album name into header tags (
<h1> to
<h6>). There are several postings that explain how to accomplish this.
What I actually did was fixing your improper nesting issues that resulted in distorted pages. As you have based your custom theme on fiapple by daMysterious I have downloaded that theme and renamed it accordingly. You should do the same thing, i.e. unzip the attachment into your themes folder and then visit your gallery with the new theme forced for you only by entering the URL
http://www.autoracingdaily.net/?theme=autoracingdaily into your browser's address bar. After reviewing you can permanently make the new theme the default using Coppermine's config.
Please note the switch
//define('DISPLAY_ADS_FOR_META_ALBUMS', 1); // Uncomment to enable ads for meta albumsin theme.php that I added: uncomment to display google ads for meta albums as well, i.e. change to
define('DISPLAY_ADS_FOR_META_ALBUMS', 1); // Uncomment to enable ads for meta albumsI reviewed your theme closely and removed all the surplus stuff that is not needed (because it doesn't differ from default behaviour).
For those who are interessted in the same thing, here are the relevant sections of theme.php:
<?php
//define('DISPLAY_ADS_FOR_META_ALBUMS', 1); // Uncomment to enable ads for meta albums
// HTML template for thumbnails display
