## Description

Corner Ad features:

» Minimally invasive
 » Display the ad at top corner area of the page » The animation
in the Corner Ad captures the user’s attention » It is possible to associate an 
image and an URL to the Corner Ad » The target of the link can be selected » Configurable
background color for the ad to match the web page design » Automatic mirror effect»
Configurable time for automatic open and close actions

**Corner Ad** is a minimally invasive advertising display that uses any of your 
webpage’s top corners – a position typically under-utilized by developers – and 
attracts users’ attention by a cool visual effect imitating a page flip. **Corner
Ad** initially displays a partial ad, which attracts attention; when user hover 
the mouse over it, the ad opens to its full size while imitating a page-flip effect;
once the mouse is moved away, the ad returns to its initial size.

**Corner Ad** can also be used for announcements, newsflashes, and basically for
anything else that you consider important and want your website visitors to see.
It is common nowadays that visitors quickly scan the contents of a page and often
fail to notice messages that you would like them to see; **Corner Ad** attempts 
to resolve this issue.

**More about the Main Features:**

 * Minimally invasive.
 * Display the ad at top corner area of the page.
 * The target of the link can be selected, so it can open the new page in the same
   browser’s window or into a new window.
 * Configurable background color for the ad to match the web page design.
 * Automatic mirror effect
 * Configurable time for automatic open and close actions.
 * The corner ad effect is based on HTML 5 using the SVG tags.

The base plugin, available for free from the WordPress Plugin Directory has all 
the features you need to create an audio and video player on your website.

**Premium Features**

 * Supports multiple ads into the same website (each ad in a different page) to 
   promote different products.
 * Allows the selection of which top corner area of the page (right or left) will
   be used to display the ad to avoid overwriting important elements like logos,
   menus or search features.
 * Count the number of click for Ads. The number of clicks on the ads, measures 
   the impact of advertising on the web site’s users.
 * Allows to associate multiple images to the same ad. The ad image is selected 
   randomly each time is loaded the page containing the Corner Ad.
 * Allows to associate a audio file to the advertising obtaining a bigger impact.
   The audio file will play in background.
 * Allows to enter multiple ids in the shortcode, separated by comme, for example:`[
   corner-ad id="1,2,3"]`, to select randomly the ad to include in the webpage.

The “Corner Ad” is the perfect replacement of the old and invasive banners, the “
Corner Ad” is small but its location and animation is able to capture the user’s
attention.

The “Corner Ad” plugin allows the specific integration with the following editors:

 * Classic WordPress Editor.
 * Gutenberg Editor.
 * Elementor.
 * Page Builder by SiteOrigin.
 * BeaverBuilder Editor.
 * For other editors, the shortcodes should be inserted using other controls of 
   general purpose, like the controls for inserting HTML or shortcodes.

### Interface

**Creating an Ad**

To create an ad go to the settings page under the menu “Settings > Corner Ad” or
the link “settings” into the plugins area. The first screen will display the list
of ads already created and a button “Create New Ad” for adding new ads.

 * To create a new ad, use the “Create New Ad” button.
 * To edit an existent ad, use the “Edit” button related to the ad.
 * To delete an ad, use the “Remove” button related to the ad.

The edition screen allows the configuration of the ad featuring the following options:

 * Ad name: Name used to identify the ad in the list.
 * Ad Link: Link to a page that will be opened when the user clicks on the ad. The
   link must be an absolute URL if you are promoting an external website.
 * Open Ad in: The options are “New page”, to open the page in a new browser window,
   or “Self Page”, to keep the navigation in the same browser window.
 * Ad image: Address (URL) of the image that will be used for the ad. If you click
   the “Browse” button the WordPress media library will be opened to select one 
   of the images already available in your WordPress website and you can also add
   new images there. It is possible to associate multiple images to the same Ad,
   the images will be randomly selected to display in page.
 * Ad audio: Address (URL) of audio file to play in background.
 * Set as mirror: Automatically enable the image mirror on the ad.
 * Use corner with color: Applies a color to the ad cover.
 * Display Ad in corner: For selecting which top corner (Left or Right) will be 
   used to display the ad.
 * Open corner in: Time in seconds to automatically open the ad.
 * Close corner in: Time in seconds to automatically closet the ad.

Schedule

 * From (optional): Date with the format yyyy-mm-dd. If a date is entered, the ad
   is displayed from this date (included).
 * To (optional): Date with the format yyyy-mm-dd. If a date is entered, the ad 
   is displayed until this date (included).

**Inserting the Ad**

To inset the ad into a post or page open the post/page for editing and use the “
Corner Ad” icon that is located above the editor.

A floating panel will appear allowing the selection of the corner ad to be inserted
into the post/page. Once selected a shortcode with the ad’s ID will be inserted 
into the content., for example: `[corner-ad id="3"]` (the 3 is the ID of the ad 
in this sample).

To insert an ad directly into the website theme to display it across all the pages
or into specific sections, edit the template and insert the following code fragment:

    ```
    <?php echo do_shortcode('[corner-ad id="3"]'); ?>
    ```

To identify the ID that belongs to each ad, go to the page in the settings area 
where the ads are created. On that list each ad has its shortcode with its ID.

 2. Go to the WordPress Plugins menu in the dashboard area.
 3. Press the “Add New” button.
 4. Click the “Upload” link and select the downloaded plugin.
 5. Once installed click “Activate” to enable it.

## FAQ

### Q: Why the image does not cover the entire corner?

A: The Corner Ad has square form, so it is recommended to use proportional images(
it is recommended the use of square images greater than 400×400 pixels).

### Q: Is supported the plugin “Corner Ad” on mobiles?

A: Yes it is. From the version 1.0.5, the “Corner Ad” plugin was re-implemented 
to be supported natively by the most popular browsers, even their mobile versions.

experience. It’s easy to install and manage, works seamlessly, and offers plenty
of customization options. I really appreciate that the core features are available

Ich bin absolut begeistert von der App Corner Ad! Sie hat meine Erwartungen bei 
weitem übertroffen und sich schnell zu einem unverzichtbaren Tool in meinem Alltag
entwickelt. Die Benutzeroberfläche ist unglaublich intuitiv und benutzerfreundlich–
sogar für Menschen, die wenig technisches Know-how haben. Ich konnte sofort loslegen,
ohne mich lange einarbeiten zu müssen. Was Corner Ad besonders auszeichnet, ist 
die Effizienz und Präzision, mit der Anzeigen geschaltet werden. Egal ob ich eine
kleine lokale Kampagne oder eine größere Werbeaktion starte – die Ergebnisse sind
immer beeindruckend. Die Reichweite, die ich durch die App erzielen konnte, hat 
mein Geschäft auf ein völlig neues Level gehoben. Noch nie war es so einfach, meine
Zielgruppe direkt und präzise anzusprechen. Die Analytics-Funktionen sind ebenfalls
hervorragend. Ich kann in Echtzeit verfolgen, wie meine Kampagnen performen, und
gegebenenfalls Anpassungen vornehmen. Dadurch verschwende ich keine Ressourcen und
kann meine Werbebudgets optimal nutzen. Ein weiteres Highlight ist der herausragende
Kundenservice. Bei Fragen oder Anliegen wird einem schnell und kompetent geholfen–
ein weiterer Grund, warum ich Corner Ad nur weiterempfehlen kann. Fazit: Corner 
Ad ist der perfekte Begleiter für jeden, der sein Marketing auf das nächste Level
bringen möchte. Eine 5-Sterne-App, die ich ohne zu zögern jedem empfehlen kann!
