The placeholder div and text shows up in the html source, but nothing is displayed on the page.
Implementation: in the 'Page' portion of a View, within 'Header', using Full HTML input format:
<?php print adsense_display( array( 'format'=>'468x15', slot=>'4910564720' ) ); ?>
Output:

 <div class='adsense' style=' ... 15px;'>Ads disabled for site admin<br />Google AdSense 4-links 468x15</div>

If I remove the class='adsense', the placeholder text DOES show up.

- I've placed the same code into the full-page view of a node, with the same effect.
- None of the user roles has 'hide adsense' checked.
- The behaviour is the same regardless of whether or not I'm logged in as admin.
- I've cleared the cache tables, logged out, and run a cron.
- The adsense core setting is set to 'show on all pages except listed below', and nothing is listed there.
- I've tried with ads both enabled and disabled, both testing mode on and off.
I must be overlooking something really simple.

I've tried searching the modules for what defines the class 'adsense', but to no avail. What attribute of the class would cause the

not to be printed?

I don't expect ads themselves to show up for a while, but the placeholder should show up immediately, right?

I would guess you're using Firefox with AdBlock Plus or similar.. I think that if you disable it you'll see the placeholder (and eventually the ads).

See, now that's the kind of slap-in-the-forehead mistake I was talking about. I had the same issue when I first checked out the homepage for Adsense -- it was entirely blank.

Thank you, jcn; you're totally right.
