I am trying to insert some ad code in a site after X number of elements. The base code I am using was from using
tags (from: http://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-insert-ads-within-your-post-content-in-wordpress/):
function prefix_insert_after_list_item( $insertion, $paragraph_id, $content ) {
$closing_p = '</p>';
$paragraphs = explode( $closing_p, $content );
var_dump($paragraphs);
foreach ($paragraphs as $index => $paragraph) {
if ( trim( $paragraph ) ) {
$paragraphs[$index] .= $closing_p;
}
if ( $paragraph_id == $index + 1 ) {
$paragraphs[$index] .= $insertion;
}
}
return implode( '', $paragraphs );
}
Instead of paragraphs, I am trying to insert them between certain elements. Here is my HTML structure:
<div class="listing">
<div class="list-item">
</div>
<div class="list-item">
</div>
<div class="list-item">
</div>
<div class="list-item">
</div>
</div>
I’d like to insert the ads between the list items. Replacing $closing_p = '</p>'; with $closing_p = '<div class="list-item">'; doesn’t seem to work though. Is there a way with to target the overall $content element in WordPress, but then target ‘s within the parent ‘listing’ ? Or is there another/better way to do what I am trying to do?
