On many occassions you might want to stop showing a particular ad block on your blog.
On one occassion I used to promote a particular product on one of my blogs. That product was giving me very little click throughs and I decided its high time I stop promoting this product as people doesn’t seem to be interested in it anymore. I wanted to stop the ad from showing up until I find another one which I can place in its place.
The product link was inserted above my posts using wp-insert. So I opened up the “Manage Ads (Posts and Sidebars)” menu and expanded the “Ads – Above Post Content” section
You can see the “Click to Deactivate” button on top of the block. Click it and then Click Save and the ad will stop showing up immediately.
When you are ready with your new ad code or if you decide to promote the same ad again you can come back later and Click the “Click to Activate” button followed by the “Save” button to begin serving the Ad again.
