Custom_Ads Not working for me

Posted in: Newspaper

Hello,

I hope your day is going well. Today I discovered that the custom ads that have always worked for me (using javascript) are no longer working. I can get the ads to work using a text widget, so I know the javascript is written and formatted correctly, but when I insert the javascript into the custom_ad areas (#1, #2, #3) and enable the Tagdiv Ad box in my sidebar, none of the custom ads display at all. There appears to be a small blank space where the ads should appear but that’s it.

These have always worked for me previously, so I hope you have a solution for this.

Have and Awesome Day!

Also, I might ad that all of my other ads (header, sidebar, article top, article inline, article bottom, etc.) work just fine using the same javascript code I am attempting to use for the custom ads.

Another note to take into consideration. Using the Visual Composer, the Ad Box (added to the widgetized sidebar) will not display any Custom_Ad, but it will display all of the other standard ads.

Hi,

The theme Ad system was designed for Adsense and custom banner(image)+link ads, with other ad systems it may not behave properly. The ad places including the custom ones are controlled by the same code.
If possible please provide the url (a page which has working and not working ads) so i can take a look.

Thank you, Emil G.

Emil,

Thanks for looking into this. On this URL you can see on the right sidebar where I have 4 Tagdiv Ad Boxes in a column row (see image: http://screencast.com/t/8q6Atyj3 The first Ad Box is using the Theme Panel’s sidebar ad. The next 3 below are using custom_ad 1, custom_ad 2, and custom_ad 3 in sequence, but none of them are outputing the results.

Here is the standard script that I am using for each Ad Area in Theme Panel: <script type=”text/javascript” src=”https://tribyoot.org/Tribyoot/wp-content/plugins/oiopub-direct/js.php#type=banner&align=center&zone=5″></script&gt;

Hi,

First check the code double quote signs, it should be like this:

<script type="text/javascript" src="https://tribyoot.org/Tribyoot/wp-content/plugins/oiopub-direct/js.php#type=banner&align=center&zone=5"></script>

Try to add the following css in Theme Panel -> Custom CSS:

.span4 .td-a-rec-id-custom_ad_1 > div,.span4 .td-a-rec-id-custom_ad_2 > div, .span4 .td-a-rec-id-custom_ad_3 > div {
min-width: 350px;
height: auto;
}

Thank you, Emil G.

Thanks Emil,

The CSS seems to have resolved the issue. I appreciate your diligence in finding a solution. Have an Awesome Day!
