Responsive Ad Shortcodes WordPress Plugin
Responsive Ad Shortcodes is a WordPress plugin that was built to scratch an itch. For some time, we've been trying to get AdSense and DoubleClick to play nice with responsive websites. Not easy, as the responsive ad offerings from Google fall very short and offer little control. This plugin aims to address this, allowing users to control ad display on 3 types of screen (small, medium & large). And blend ads from AdSense and DoubleClick into single units.
Because of the focus on control and flexibility this plugin uses VERY verbose shortcodes. It is not designed for newbies. If you want a simple AdSdene short code manage, take a look at WP Simple AdSense Insertion.
