How to use the TLA-MU widget?

Text-Link-Ads widget for WordPress-MU (TLA-MU) is a plugin that will allow WPMU users to use the Text-Link-Ads (TLA) basic service and earn money by having text links ads on their blogs.

Each user that will want to use the TLA-MU plugin will have to open an account with Text-Link-Ads. After you register you will need to add your blog to the account.

Step 1: it is important to select “No” for the question “Does your site use WordPress 2.0+“.

Step 2: the answer to the “Ads to be displayed on” option depends on the specific theme you are using. Please remember that a widget is shown on the theme’s sidebar so the widget will show on every page the sidebar is shown.
