Automatic installation Go to WordPress Plugins menu, click Add New button, search for "Mediator" and click Install Now and Activate it. Manual installation Download the plugin as .zip file, then go to WordPress Plugins and click Add New, upload Mediator plugin. Choose zip file with plugin, click on Install Now and Activate it. Quick start guide video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=smvMq2I589Q How to configure it and how it works? To make plugin working you need to make two steps:

1. After installing and activating plugin the Mediator tab will appear on the left sidebar of your WordPress dashboard. Open it and click ‘Settings’.

There you should paste AdSense or other ad code. Then select alternative content, that will be shown instead of ad, if it will be blocked:

• Showing your adblock visitors MailChimp subscription form. You can use our preset form or customize it with custom CSS class mediator_tech_mailchimp. If you need any help with it please let us know by email hello@mediator.tech
• Showing your adblock visitors Facebook like button, button with counts, like box with counts or just standard like button.
• Showing your adblock visitors your custom ads or text. You can use any html code or shortcode here.
• Block content with blurring the content and show visitors our default or custom message asking to disable adblock. You can choose after what number of page show alert image.

After you finish filling out settings, make sure that ‘Enabled’ check box is checked and click ‘Save settings’.

1. Now you can add ad to your website (you need to do it to make plugin working!). There are different ways to do it:
2. Embed it using widget (Appearance -> Widgets) to your sidebar or any other areas, supported by your theme.
3. Embed it using shortcode to your posts or pages (click on the button with $ sign on toolbar)
4. Embed it to php template using following code: <?php echo do_shortcode( '[mediator_tech]' ); ?>
5. If you are already using some plugin or built-in theme settings to add AdSense on your website, you can just use [mediator_tech] instead of AdSense code.

In all cases, plugin will try to show an ad. If it will be blocked by any adblocking software, visitor will see chosen alternative content instead of it. Too see the statistics open Mediator -> Statistics. Your feedback is more than welcome! Please report if anything goes wrong at hello@mediator.tech. We will get back to you ASAP.
