Shortcode

From v1.4.0 you can use the a new shortcode and a news attribute to display banners only for mobile or desktop.
Let’s see some exmaple:

The banner with id 1768 will be displayed only on mobile device.

[wp_bannerize_pro desktop="1" id="1678"]

The banner with id 1768 will be displayed only on desltop device.
Of course, you may need to display more info. In this case yoy can use the new shortcode to wrap any contents.

[wp_bannerize_pro_mobile]
  <h3>You're from mobile</h3>
  [wp_bannerize_pro id="1678"]
[/wp_bannerize_pro_mobile]

The above shortcodes, will display the banner with id 1678 only for mobile device.

[wp_bannerize_pro_desktop]
  <h3>You're from desktop</h3>

From v1.1.0 you can use the new shortcode to display geo localized banners.

// single banners
[wp_bannerize_pro id="1678"]
[wp_bannerize_pro id="my-banner-slug"]
[wp_bannerize_pro id="1678,my-banner-slug"]

// random
[wp_bannerize_pro numbers="1" orderby="random"]

// random with category
[wp_bannerize_pro orderby="random" categories="56"]
[wp_bannerize_pro orderby="random" categories="sidebar-blog"]

// post categories
[wp_bannerize_pro post_categories="news,events"]
[wp_bannerize_pro post_categories="34,67"]

PHP Function

You may use either wp_bannerize_pro() or get_wp_bannerize_pro() to display your banner. The main difference between them is that get_wp_bannerize_pro() return the HTML output for the banner, for example:

<?php
// Display a single banner
if( function_exists( 'wp_bannerize_pro' ) ) {
  wp_bannerize_pro( array( 'id' => '156' ) );
}

By using get_wp_bannerize_pro() you should add echo function to display the output:

<?php
// Display a single banner
if( function_exists( 'wp_bannerize_pro' ) ) {
  echo get_wp_bannerize_pro( array( 'id' => '156' ) );
}

More example below.

<?php
// Display a single banner
if( function_exists( 'wp_bannerize_pro' ) ) {
  wp_bannerize_pro( array( 'id' => '156' ) );
}

// Display a set of banners by a comma separated string
if( function_exists( 'wp_bannerize_pro' ) ) {
  wp_bannerize_pro( array( 'id' => '156,157,158' ) );
}

// Display a set of banners by an array
if( function_exists( 'wp_bannerize_pro' ) ) {
  wp_bannerize_pro( array( 'id' => array( 156, 157, 158 ) ) );
}

// Display a set of banners by mixed id and slug
if( function_exists( 'wp_bannerize_pro' ) ) {
  wp_bannerize_pro( array( 'id' => array( 156, 'my-banner-slug', 158 ) ) );
}

// Display all banners from banner category "sidebar" in random order
if( function_exists( 'wp_bannerize_pro' ) ) {
  wp_bannerize_pro( array( 'orderby' => 'random', 'categories' => 'sidebar' ) );
}

// Display one banner from banner category "sidebar" in random order
if( function_exists( 'wp_bannerize_pro' ) ) {
  wp_bannerize_pro( array( 'orderby' => 'random', 'numbers' => 1, 'categories' => 'sidebar' ) );
}

// Display banners from banner category "sidebar" and post categories news and events
if( function_exists( 'wp_bannerize_pro' ) ) {
  wp_bannerize_pro( array( 'category' => 'sidebar', 'post_categories' => 'news,events' ) );
}

// Or... as array of slug
if( function_exists( 'wp_bannerize_pro' ) ) {
  wp_bannerize_pro( array( 'categories' => 'sidebar', 'post_categories' => array( 'news', 'events' ) ) );
}

// Or... as array of Title
if( function_exists( 'wp_bannerize_pro' ) ) {
  wp_bannerize_pro( array( 'categories' => 'sidebar', 'post_categories' => array( 'News', 'Events' ) ) );
}

// Or... as array of ids
if( function_exists( 'wp_bannerize_pro' ) ) {
  wp_bannerize_pro( array( 'categories' => 'sidebar', 'post_categories' => array( 24, 67 ) ) );
}

// Display a set of banners only for mobile device
if( function_exists( 'wp_bannerize_pro' ) ) {
  wp_bannerize_pro( [ 'mobile' => true, 'id' => [156,157,158] ] );
}

// Display a set of banners only for desktop device
if( function_exists( 'wp_bannerize_pro' ) ) {
  wp_bannerize_pro( [ 'desktop' => true, 'id' => [156,157,158] ] );
}

The code above shows banners only for the posts categories 13 or 14, for the “right_sidebar” banner category.

or in your post:

[wp_bannerize_pro categories="adv" orderby="random" numbers="3"]

The default HTML output for above code is:
