Arbitrary section
- Plugin counts not real facebook likes, but clicks-over-the-button. Since the majority of users are logged in on facebook, such statistics is 99% accurate.
- In case of mailchimp subscribers, plugin automaticaly put the ‘Subscribed from’ field into your subscribers list. It allows you track and create segments of only adblocking subscribers. Also it helps to understand which page of your website is more effective
- In both cases Mediator counts only its clicks and subscribers. For example, if you have other mailchimp subscription form somewhere on your websites, Mediator will not count users, who subscribed there. In other words, Mediator plugin is designed to track only extra actions and goals, that were achieved by virtue of it. So you can track how efficient the plugin is and which alternative content is better.

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’.
2) Now you can add ad to your website (you need to do it to make plugin working!). There are different ways to do it:
- Embed it using widget (Appearance -> Widgets) to your sidebar or any other areas, supported by your theme.
- Embed it using shortcode to your posts or pages (click on the button with $ sign on toolbar)
- Embed it to php template using following code:
<?php echo do_shortcode( ‘[mediator_tech]’ ); ?> - 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.
