Placing Google Ad in post view

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:

I tried using the following code to show Google Ad in the middle of the view, I set the view to output 11 posts in a page, but this instead resulting post #5 to be replaced with the ad instead (thus the post was not shown). Is this an expected behavior?

Solution:

This is expected result, in the item #5, you will need to display the content template shortcode too, otherwise it won't display #5 item, for example:

I tried using the following code to show Google Ad in the middle of the view:

<wpv-loop>
[wpv-item index=split2]
<div class="row">
{Google Adsense code}
</div>
[wpv-item index=other]
[wpv-post-body view_template="loop-item-in-top-stories-of-the-region"]
</wpv-loop>

I set the view to output 11 posts in a page, but this instead resulting post #5 to be replaced with the ad instead (thus the post was not shown). Is this an expected behavior?

Also, this may be beyond your support scope, but in your knowledge, have you come across the issue of Responsive Google Ad breaking the bootstrap grid (see this screen recording: hidden link)? What happens was, on initial page load, the columns would go haywire (where the ad was inserted within), but if I resized the browser or simply activated code inspector, the layout restored itself. Meanwhile I have removed the code so you won't be able to see the problem in production site.

Hello,

This is expected result, in the item #5, you will need to display the content template shortcode too, otherwise it won't display #5 item, for example:

<wpv-loop>
[wpv-item index=split2]
[wpv-post-body view_template="loop-item-in-top-stories-of-the-region"]
<div class="row">
{Google Adsense code}
</div>
[wpv-item index=other]
[wpv-post-body view_template="loop-item-in-top-stories-of-the-region"]
</wpv-loop>
