ads cover content

Post by ghyti »

Trying to read spawning reports for Julii cories and an ad covers the report. Cannot seem to remove the ad to view the report.

Without a reply, I checked this out and it seems to work fine. Screenshot attached. However, this will be of limited use as it's my screen not yours. :-)

If there's still an issue, post a screenshot and I will reopen/look into it.

Cheers,

Issue seemed to be much more prevalent in the past months, but still occurs on occasion. The "x" that one usually clicks to rid the page of the ad is partially obscured by the PlanetCatfish...banner...thing? (for lack of better words), and clicking the "x" only reveals the "Ads by Google" thing in place of the ad.
Seems to happen on multiple devices.
Used to get around the issue by spamming the "Reload" button for the page and skimming the info at the top before an ad had a chance to load completely.
Hope it isn't a major problem- running an online fish encyclopedia/forum site must be exhausting...

Thanks for posting, this is helpful as I now understand the specific page. This is a footer ad, for some odd reason, appearing in the wrong place.

Will look into it.

Now I know the page, I've made a change which means the whole page displays correctly. I couldn't recreate the issue with the ad (it could be a specific report, or a specific species) but if it happens again, if you could please post the whole URL that would help.

Cheers,
