There are 2 easy steps for configuring your Discourse settings to enable advertisements to display in your Discourse forum.
#### House Ads
If you don't want to use an external ad platform, but want to show your own ads, then House Ads are for you!
Define your ads by going to the Admin section of your Discourse forum, and go to the Plugins section.
