Can't 'like' or interact with a post above an advert.

Pop up ads back with a vengeance... Constantly moving as well so almost impossible to avoid

 

[Marty]

Anybody else getting loads more adverts in the past couple of days? I've got some on the page itself, then one along the bottom and now I'm getting a pop up as well that takes up half the screen.

At this point Nick, I wouldn't mind paying to use the site to get rid of the adverts.

 

[Alkhen]

Yep horrible video ads popping up

 

[mark82]

Yeah. Doing my head in.

@Nick know you need to cover costs but is there anything less invasive?

 

[Sick Boy]

Yeah it’s making the site really hard to use. I thought @fernandopartridge had posted a weird video about 5 amazing facts about the universe and life.

I’d happily pay for an ad-free version of SBT to contribute towards the costs of running the site. I’m sure a lot of regulars would be as well.

 

[hill83]

Getting the same and it’s making the page crash. Basically runs like the Cov telegraph website.

Ads are popping up every few seconds.

 

[Covkid1968#]

Yep… it’s not good.

 

[Nick]

Shit, no idea why they are doing this. Just having a look!

Sorry.

 

[Nick]

Are they slowly going? Looks like an update undid my restrictions to hide all of the shite.

 

[Grendel]

I have some weird video about the universe for some reason

 

[Nick]

Keep refreshing / clear cache and Im hoping they should start to vanish?

Seems better

Hitchhiker’s guide?

Looks fixed to me!! Thanks Nick

@Nick

Can you try clearing cache and logging back in?

It's set to not show members so it might think you're logged out (even though you're not)

Sorry

 

[hill83]

Sorted, thanks

 

[Nick]

What did you do?

 

[hill83]

What did you do?

Logged out, cleared history and cache. This is on iPhone

 

[Sick Boy]

I keep getting video ads pop up on the screen- can these be turned off? It’s happening every time a page is refreshed.

 

[Alkhen]

Yeah I got a nearly full page game animated advert appear on my screen.

 

[shmmeee]

Fucking video ads all over. In the middle of posts and all sorts

 

[Nick]

Sake. I'll look as soon as I get home.

On mobile, dark or light theme?

Mobile. IOS Safari. Dark mode

It's not intentional. Will have a look

 

[Nick]

Any better?

 

[shmmeee]

Looks like they’ve gone

 

[Sick Boy]

Yeah looks good to me, cheers!

 

[Nick]

Thanks, let me know if they come back when logged in!

I’m not entirely sure why, but when I’ve attempted to delete an actual post, there appears to be an ad banner at the bottom of the screen, that’s obscuring the actual delete button itself.

No amount of hapless swiping and swearing has achieved anything, I’m afraid.
