<!-- GOOGLE AD CODE START HERE -->

<script type="text/javascript"><!--

Manoj,

 

In cases such as this, I'm afraid such a customization takes the help of a Pro because trying to break into the loop can cause harm to your site.  So, I'd refer you to

On the flip side of that, What I have done in past is to use

.  This would allow you to emulate the loop using customized shortcode you create yourself and some easy CSS.   Both plugins are free, but have premium versions at CodeCanyon.net.

 

Place Special Recent Posts shortcode on a static homepage for the 1st two posts. You may have to use CSS to resize the thumbnail, but it's very easy to do. 

 

Below it, using the Boxer plugin, which creates content blocks, insert the shortcode for a block-set.    The block set has one box, and it contains the AdSense code.

 

Following this, more shortcode for Special Recent Posts, this one offsetting the post list by 2, and displaying 8 or whatever number you'd like.

 

So, the page would have

• 2 posts
• ad
• 8 posts

 

That seemed to be the layout you were seeking.

 

Note: If you were going to style the ads, such as centering, you can still do so with the content block.  Simply wrap the code in a unique class and use CSS to align the ad as desired. You may also be able to achieve this with the settings of Boxer plugin.

I don't want to use plugins. Thanks for not providing straight solution.

Your code will not work as it is copy and pasted from thesis hook.

Since you refuse my recommended solution and are using the wrong code to begin with,  perhaps you'll now hire a Pro, as suggested.  We cannot customize your site for you via the forum.  Customizations are done by professional web designers on our team.

 

I tried offering you a viable option, which you rejected.  I'm sorry my solution was unsatisfactory and wish you only the best luck with your project.
