Most technical-savvy Internet users these days have adopted an ad-blocking plugin for their browsers. This small tool lets them navigate the Web without being constantly visually assaulted by annoying ads or intrusive popups.
While ads may be evil in some people's eyes, they are also the lifeline that keeps all those free blogs you casually visit alive. It helps webmasters monetize their content and pay hosting bills.
The Ad Blocking Detector WordPress plugin is a tool created for webmasters that run ads on their site to help them pay for various maintenance bills.
It's a tool created to help them detect client-side ad blocking software and replace the ad with a warning instead.
This way, you can plea with your users to disable their ad blocking software, or display other alternative content instead.
Ad Blocking Detector works via a WordPress shortcode, which webmasters can configure from the WP admin panel.
This shortcode lets the user specify the warning's size and content, allowing the admin to add HTML & CSS content inside his warning message's body.
If they don't want to issue warnings to users, with this tool, webmasters can replace ads with other promotional material like newsletter subscription fields, links to other posts, RSS feed links, and so on.
The plugin works with sites rendered on desktop and mobile devices the same.
