There are many ways by which you can add adsense into Thesis wordpress theme. One easy way is adding adsense by using custom functions.php file. Though many users who are not very fond of editing custom_functions.php file. They can also use Thesis open hook plugin.

Placing the adsense Revenue Sharing code

This can be done using author advertising revenue sharing plugin. Once you have configured the plugin, use this code in your custom_functions.ph file of Thesis theme.

//***************************************************************************
/* Adsense after every post Author advertising */
function add_adsense_media1 () {
?>
<p><?php if (function_exists('kd_template_ad')) { kd_template_ad(1); } ?>
</p>
<?php
}
add_action('thesis_hook_before_post', 'add_adsense_media1'); 

//***************************************************************************

You need to take care of media unit ID.

Adding adsense between the blog post

To add adsense in between the post, I prefer using a plugin name Quick adsense plugin. Benefit of using this plugin is, you can always replace it with any other adnetwork.

Adding adsense above or below the post

To add the adsense above, below or on the sidebar. You can try why to do work adsense plugin.

Though one thing which I have observed instead of using all 3 ad units on your blog, you can always try two ad units and more link units. This will increase your CTR and hence revenue.
