Description of problem

Hi!
Hey, we've bought the "ad free for members" feature, but our members need to log in first before the ads are eliminated. The price for cost free for members and guests is, at least for now, a bit cost prohibitive for us. However, over the last few days, we've gotten members who have reported problems with ads covering the login and making it impossible for them to log in. Sometimes it is relieved by multiple refreshes, but I had the same issue myself one day last week where an ad that looked like it was at least 2 1/2 x 2 1/2 square was covering the log in. Is there a way to make sure the ads are banner size that actually fit the boards so members/guests can log in? Thanks!

It happened to me once on my laptop, and i was using firefox as a browser. however most of our users are getting it with the mobile version. Some were iphones. I don't know if any were androids. I can't check it on mine b/c when i bring up my forum on my phone, its unreadable. All the text is completely flush right with words going downward, in one vertical column, so i've given up using the mobile version.

I'm going through the dame problem on my forum as well, in Safari. I can't see the advert on Firefox as yet, but I should imagine that it may well appear in time. I realise that this topic is being moved, but does anyone know of a solution yet, please?

Here is a link to my forum: http://buildingbonds.forumotion.co.uk/forum.

by **SLGray** August 26th 2016, 10:46 pm

To help solve this issue, please give the requested information that Leviosa asked for: https://help.forumotion.com/t148159-ads-cover-login#1023521 .

I have moved this topic back here since it does deal with the log in.

by TamDonCo August 26th 2016, 11:55 pm

Update

it happens to Registration too, ads cover registration screen

by Toshiro Hitsugaya August 27th 2016, 4:55 am

I am in the United Kingdom.

The banner address is: https://duzt6rhr7wo8p.cloudfront.net/67703/64437

The code in the Inspect Element section:

Code:: <iframe src="http://tpc.googlesyndication.com/safeframe/1-0-4/html/container.html" style="visibility: hidden; display: none;"></iframe> #document <!DOCTYPE html> <iframe src="https://b.a2gw.com/banner?dfp=200430417&cw=728&ch=90&_cb=764101435" width="728" height="90" style="border: 0;" frameborder="0" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" scrolling="no"></iframe> <html><head> <link rel="icon" href="data:;base64,iVBORw0KGgo="> </head> <body style="margin: 0" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0"> <a href="https://a2g-secure.com/?a=25663&c=163&s1=&s2=2CELpOul6eezjojTP0hAZA&s3=as~yjwSF1YJJS8KBm50YTAuMRD0AxpTCAEQARoWMkNFTHBPdWw2ZWV6am9qVFAwaEFaQSDRpslfKL_IAToCR0JA2AVIWmoHEAEYAyDZBHjNBoIBFjdrdDFJdm9YVnFYZDdyUi1uaGxESlE" target="_blank"> <img src="https://duzt6rhr7wo8p.cloudfront.net/67703/64437"> </a> </body></html> </iframe>

I hope this is the right information that you need. I have only been able to try on Safari, but the way the advert is spread across sounds exactly like the others described in this topic, so I wouldn't be surprised if it's affects mobiles as well.

by lilacbev August 27th 2016, 8:45 am

I can't give the information requested. It is one of my members who is having the issue and I can't get in contact with her.

She can't log on so managed to PM me as a guest but I can't message her back

What should I do?

Edit.

I have managed to get this information. Is this what you are looking for?

I am in the UK, the member is in Ireland.

She is using classic on an Ipad

The only thing that I can suggest to people until this is fixed is to download another browser such as Firefox, etc. and install an Ad Block on it. Then the ads don't show up and people can log in.

by Hi-Fi 4 Sale August 29th 2016, 8:06 pm

Hi Team,

Our site (www.hifi4sale.net) also has the same issue. Received complaints from a few users with the ads blocking the login fields.

ads cover login Ads_bl10

The example above impacts iOS mobile users. Our site is programmed to turn off the mobile site (which has different considerations to go with it).

It probably has to do with the Google responsive ad format that automatically adapts the width and serves a more square ad, affecting the padding below.

Many thanks,

by TamDonCo August 30th 2016, 3:27 pm

still no hope ?

by **Ape** August 30th 2016, 3:30 pm

We are looking in to this and we have asked our team to get this fixed some news will be gave when there is news from our Ad's providers.

by Canon August 30th 2016, 9:13 pm

Same here on Android device and aware of 2 people on Ipads having same issue, can't get the ad address or the code as on mobile device using the classic version, I've attached a screenshot

by **Ape** August 31st 2016, 12:07 am

Please make sure you tell us what part of the world you are in and your browser is and a link to your forum @Canon

Hi,

www.bellsareringing.forumotion.com
phpBB3

Happening for users in the UK and for myself in Australia.
Seems to be on mobile devices (ios). Doesn't appear to be a problem for android or PC's.

by TamDonCo August 31st 2016, 2:36 pm

Yes, Safari on iOS only

by Fish1969 August 31st 2016, 5:58 pm

it happens since a couple of days to one user (at least ONE had told me about it)

Ipad
it covers complete the log-in-field, it is not possible to use it

I asked him to give me the link or a screenshot
