Ads problem with Amp

Posted in: Newspaper

Hi,

with 8.7.2 update (plugin too) article inline ads on amps do not perform well.

ProblemS:

1) When there is a video as featured image, the number of parameters skips.

2) Inline ads overlap with bottom ads if there are few paragraphs
(in the mobile theme there is a function that avoids overlapping).

How to solve?

Thanks

Hi,

1. Indeed the featured video seems to be wrapped in paragraph tags, this will affect the inline ad paragraph count. I will pass this along to the developer team and they will investigate.

2. I have tested a post with 2 paragraphs where the inline ad is set to appear after 1 paragraph

If you could provide an example how I could recreate the issue you are mentioning, it will be helpful. Please let us know.

Thanks

Hi Simion,

1) yes video create problems to be solved.

2) For other question The typical situation with amp ads problem is follow
with Article Inline Ad after two paragraph:
(also activated Article Top Ad and Article Bottom Ad)

TITLE
—————-
FEATURE IMAGE
—————-
Article Top Ad
—————-
TEXT
—————-
TEXT
—————-
TEXT
—————-
Article Inline Ad
—————
Article Bottom Ad
—————

As you can see the two ads (Inline Ad and Bottom Ad) follow one another, while in the mobile theme there is a function that in the same case shows only Article Bottom Ad.

How can to be implemented also on amp plugin?

Thanks

Hi,

I have tested with three paragraphs and all article ads enabled.
Inline after 2 paragraphs – https://www.screencast.com/t/QLAfCqJY
After 3 paragraphs – https://www.screencast.com/t/K2z99sIElk
So they will both be displayed, inline and bottom. I will mention this as well to the developer team and they will take a look. Thank you for reporting this.

Hi Simion

inline after two paragraphs could go but it will collide with problem 1 when there are videos as featured image

Thanks for solutions to come…

Hi Simion

I wanted to ask you if you can give me any temporary solution to the problem by modifying the code.

Thanks

Hi,

Unfortunately not, This will not be easy it would require extensive AMP knowledge. It might be tricky to do so it would be bets to leave it to the team. I have added these on or issue list and they will be looked over by our team, when the time comes. They also will make tests to ensure everything works properly.

Thanks
