Just to add adsense to site requires messing with PHP code. Somebody needs to rethink the design of Q2A.

How can you attract non-geeky types with this type of stuff?
by
@finid, actually no you don't need to do the above just to add Adsense. There are several built in positions you can add content in the Admin area. I also made a plugin to add it to specific pages/positions: https://github.com/svivian/q2a-widget-anywhere

And Tomi's question is actually about putting the ad right in the middle of an answer, which is a complex and unusual request, never gonna be simple for a non-geek.

Putting an ad in the middle of an answer is a very complex request. You need to figure out not just 200 characters, but the end of a sentence or paragraph. If you are using the HTML editor this is basically impossible because you risk breaking up some HTML and causing big problems.

You can follow Robin's answer to put an ad in a few positions, or try my plugin that makes things a little easier: https://github.com/svivian/q2a-widget-anywhere

Another possibility would be to manually add the code to each answer. You can use Noah's shortcode plugin: https://github.com/NoahY/q2a-shortcode
Add a code to display your advert, e.g. {adsense} then add that to the right place in each answer. It's a pain but probably the only way to do exactly what you want without breaking stuff.

Why don't use Google autoads? Ads will be placed automatically by Google

Auto Ads are not appropriately placed, thanks for your suggestion.

Please explain how to create an adsense shortcode.
