How to Insert Adsense in the Header of a Thesis Theme
The Thesis theme is one of the most popular for WordPress users. Thesis offers a high level of flexibility and a sleek design that makes it ideal for Internet marketing. Unfortunately, Thesis is not controlled by a number of style sheets, as is typical for most other WordPress themes. Thesis uses a single "custom_functions.php" file through which all theme changes must be made. Manipulating this PHP file by hand is difficult and cumbersome, particularly for a task such as adding Adsense to the header of your page. The easiest way to add Adsense to your header is to install an open-source plug-in that allows you to make changes to your Adsense ads without manually changing the custom_functions.php file.
