At first, I thought it a very easy job to completely remove the advertisement for Wp Advanced Newspaper theme.
But, I was wrong!
I was able to remove all the banners and ads, but I still can’t figure out how to remove the “Advertisement” word.

Then, I think it is worth to write a tutorial on this.
To remove all banners and ads
- Go to wordpress admin panel at YOURSITE/wp-admin/
- Click on Appearance > Theme Settings
- In the Wp Advanced Newspaper’s Theme Settings, proceed to “Manage Ads”
- Delete all the ads in there, and disable all the ads in there:
Disable 728×90 ad spot above the side header
Disable 300×250 ad spot – mainpage above photo gallery
Disable 300×250 ad spot – mainpage below photo gallery
To remove the “Advertisement” word
This is the most tricky part. It is very easy, but I need quite some time to figure it out.
- Go to wordpress admin panel at YOURSITE/wp-admin/
- Click on Appearance > Editor
- Click on current.php (current.php)
- Then find
$newspaper['adver'] = ‘Advertisement’;
Replace with
$newspaper['adver'] = ”;
Do you realize how easy it is? The idea is just delete the word Advertisement from the dictionary.










Great post and very helpful for me, thanks
