Google Mobile Ads and LibGdx

Question

I have managed to run the example file here. The tutorial for it is here.

The example file works.

However, I am having trouble placing my own Google details into it,. I have tried to:

• log into Adsense
• Create an ad unit
• Look at the code for the ad unit to get my publisher id. It looks like the one in the example i.e. ca-app-pub-XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
• Append the above with a slash and the ID of the ad unit, which appears to be a 10 digit number.
• Use the resulting string to set the variable AD_UNIT_ID in the example

I did the above last night.

Ads do not appear when I use my AD_UNIT_ID, but they do appear when I use the example ID. What am I doing wrong?

Answer 1

I fixed it. I actually needed to go to https://apps.admob.com/ and use their adverts rather than Adsense.
