    I’m wanting to use the header banner and have placed the following to only show the banner ad for logged in users:
    [kleo_restrict type="user"][vc_widget_sidebar sidebar_id="sidebar-14"][/kleo_restrict]

    This works like a champ but adds a lot of space above and below the ad making the header area wider than it needs to be. Is there any way to remove that spacing?

    Also tried to add an image carousel using this code:

    [kleo_restrict type="user"][vc_images_carousel onclick="custom_link" custom_links_target="_blank" speed="5000" autoplay="yes" hide_pagination_control="" hide_prev_next_buttons="" scroll_fx="scroll" css_animation="fade" min_items="1" max_items="1" img_size="468x90" custom_links="http://cancerbu.org,http://sexyryders.com,http://nuryders.com" images="2880,3457,3456"][/kleo_restrict]

    I have it working on a page but can’t get it working in the header. Works here: http://beautyugly.com/home-users/
    The other problem is that I specified the size for the images to be 468×90 and it shows the full width.

    Also can’t figure out why my pages are accessible How do I prevent my pages from being seen? Like the one above.

    Hello, you could try to use an ad plugin, create a shortcode and place it in the header.php in child theme, Ad Rotate plugin may be an option

    Not “quite” the response I was hoping for as I don’t want to have to go that route. Here’s what I’ve noticed:
    1. If I place the same widget and code on a page it displays the ad. Here’s an example on a page:

    http://vendors.nuryders.com/?page_id=2&preview=true

    On this page I’ve added a widgetized sidebar called Header Ad Sidebar. In this sidebar I have two widgets: 1. Revolution Slider – it’s image is on top.
    2. Simple Ads Zone – it’s image is on the bottom.

    Neither will display inside of the header. If I look at the backend of the page I come across the following name for the widget:

    [vc_widget_sidebar sidebar_id="home-top-middle-ad-sidebar"]

    I place this inside of the header and it doesn’t display anything.

    For me the ability to rotate banner ads is essential. Be nice to be able to rotate between 768×90 and 468×90. Maybe this should be added as a feature request. The thing I can’t figure out is why there’s so much extra space added for a 468×90 image. Screenshot below.

    Hi mate, i’m sorry to say but that area from the header is not prepared to be widgetized. You should use a shortcode which outputs just the ad itself, not extra elements like the widgets for example.

    If you’re having a dedicated ad rotator plugin, please see his documentation and it should provide a shortcode to output your banners directly.

    And as a side note, we are already working in building some AD placeholder area in one of our future updates.

    If you manage to put your ad shortcode directly in the header and it still doesn’t look good, then please give us credentials to your wp admin area so we can see more exactly what you’re trying to do.

    Cheers.

    Got it! If I place a Simple Ad shortcode: [sam_zone id=”7″ name=”Home MiddleComm Ad” codes=”true”] the ad does appear flushed at the top. It looks like the extra spacing comes from the Highlight Background Color. So the questsion is where do I go to adjust if not remove it to get rid of that extra space?

    Maybe I’m being too picky but that spacing seems wrong. The ad shouldn’t be flushed against the top menu and adding a break above the shortcode doesn’t help. Is there anything that can be done to drop that ad a little and decrease the amount of space between the primary menu and the Highlight Background Color? Looking to decrease the overall width of the header area.

    As how I said, the header isn’t fully optimized for ad placing but we’re already working on this.
    If you can give me credentials to your wp admin area then I could try to see if I can tweak your header with a few css rules.

    Looking forward.

    After adding another banner into the rotation I see the end result and difference between a responsive and non-responsive banner and I’m ok with it. I’ll look out for updates and in the mean time will close this request.

    thanks for the assistance / guidance

    When using this option I notice that I’m unable to scroll to the bottom of my site. You can see this clicking here and attempting to scroll to the bottom of the page:

    Vendors @ nuRyders

    This happens in all browsers and goes away when I select a different header option. I get that the header area isn’t optimized for widgets but moreso for shortcodes. What am I missing?

    Any responses appreciated
