Adding an Ads.txt File to Your Wix Site

This recipe teaches you how to add an ads.txt file to your Wix site (for example at https://www.example.com/ads.txt).

  • Log into your Wix admin.
  • Go to Site Actions and then choose Edit Site.
  • At the top, choose Dev Mode and then click the Turn on Dev Mode button.
  • In the left sidebar, expand Backend and click Add a New Web Module.
  • Click the gear, and choose Rename. Rename the Web Module "http-functions.js" (without the quotes). Note: this name is important, it must be exactly as shown.
  • Delete any starter code and then paste in the below code. Note: if you already had an http-functions.js file, leave the existing contents and just add this code to the bottom.

import {ok, notFound, serverError} from 'wix-http-functions';

let adstxt = `<ADS.TXT CONTENT FROM ADPLUGG SUPPORT GOES HERE>`;

export function get_Adstxt(request) {
    let options = {
        "headers": {
            "Content-Type": "text/plain"
        },
            "body": adstxt
    };

    return ok(options);
}


  • Replace <ADS.TXT CONTENT FROM ADPLUGG SUPPORT GOES HERE> in the code with the ads.txt content that you received from AdPlugg Support.
  • Back in the Wix admin, press the Publish button.
  • You should now be able to view your new page at https://www.yourdomain.com/_functions/Adstxt
  • Now we will set up a redirect to serve this same page from /ads.txt.
  • Exit Dev Mode (Dev Mode > Turn off Dev Mode).
  • Exit the editor and go back to your Wix Dashboard.
  • In the left sidebar, choose Marketing and SEO and then choose SEO Tools.
  • Scroll down and choose "URL Redirect Manager".
  • In the top right, click the New Redirect button.
  • In the Old URL field, enter "/ads.txt" (without the quotes).
  • In the New URL field, enter "/_functions/Adstxt" (without the quotes).
  • Press the Save & Close button.
  • You should now be able to access your ads.txt file at https://www.yourdomain.com/ads.txt
