Please help me with this guys. I’m using the Newspaper theme and the ads on my site https://earthlymission.com are displayed OK, but when a visitor comes from my Facebook page (https://facebook.com/earthlymission), they are just not shown. I’ve tried everything, but in vain. It worked OK with my previous theme. It is driving me crazy. Pls help.

Thanks

Hi,

I see the problem, haven’t seen it before however. Seems that when accessing posts from Facebook the ads are not served, but there are no errors coming from Adsense that would indicate why it is happening.

They do load in Firefox, so it would be safe to say it is a Chrome issue.

Seems that in Chrome when coming from Facebook there is an extra parameter in the URL

And a notice – http://prntscr.com/lx192w

While in Firefox there is no extra parameter and ads load just fine. Quite unusual.

Thanks

Thanks for your answer Simion. Interestinly, it doesn’t work for me in Firefox either, even after clearing the cache. Do you have any idea as to who could help me resolve this? Could it be related to the theme in any way? Just asking because it used to work fine before swapping themes. Weird issue indeed…

For me they appear in Firefox – http://prntscr.com/lxcyn1http://prntscr.com/lxcyx9

I also noticed that the ads appear in Chrome as well while in incognito mode

So only in Chrome (non-incognito) the extra parameter is added to the URL and could be causing the issue. I could be wrong about it however. I searched for this parameter online

But I cant find this in relation to adsense ads directly it seems.

You could open a topic in the adsense forum, the users there have more experience with ads and might have an idea about this problem
