Hahaha, what a Saturday! It feels nice when discussing this topic while drinking mushroom tea. 🍵
When you show your visitors Please disable your ad blocker to continue, not unless that topic is on the first page on search engines, ranked top or you're the only one having that content, chance are most visitors will leave your site or will find other ways to see the topic, like disabling JavaScript using the Site Info option on the browser, used by may geeks. That's why you need to talk to the owners of adblocker to whitelist your site. This will enable your ads to display to people who have installed ad blocker extensions. This company is called Eyeo.

We couldn't have got this far without the hand of davwheat. He is the one who made the impossible to be possible. Note: Auto ads is not part of this extension, so when it leaves spaces, or other ads problem, its not because of his extension at all! davwheat completed his job successfully, now we are represented with other settings from publisher sites that we got to deal with them.

    Braden drinking mushroom tea

    Medicinal or psychedelic mushrooms ? I suddenly get this image of a 70s hippy lounge 🤭

    Braden Please disable your ad blocker to continue

    As soon as I see this message popup, that's my queue to hit the back button. I find it invasive and annoying. I get that site owners need to generate revenue, and I don't have an issue per se with sites that display ads in places where they are visible but not all over the content, but take immediate offence to those that block content until your disable your ad blocker.

    I refuse to lower my security to read content that's generally always available elsewhere without that experience...

          haha i am not that so old to go for medicinal 😄

          There is competition between these big companies and there used to be a rumor that Google, Microsoft, and Amazon are also paying to get around Adblock Plus. A good ad visible in the browser window when the page first loads must not collectively occupy more than 15% of the visible portion of the page.

                  Braden agreed. This is a sensible approach. I've visited some sites before that bombarded you with so many ads that you couldn't even make out the content. I also dislike sites that trigger popups when the get say 30% of the way through the page.

                  Just an annoying experience for me.

                      [deleted] 😹 🤣 imagine you try to get a first aid tip but instead you're bombarded with image ads, video ads, pop unders and legit website popups. I read your experience i have been there, 2011 especially there was no control and these are the type of remnants who brought up ad block to be created. Otherwise we could be earning revenues peacefuly.

                      An opportunity came to help everyone and suddenly it is became more of a problem than a success gateway 🤦‍♂️

                          My community is very specific and I know them very perfectly.... for an idea, I got 2.2k registered users (10k non-registered) and almost 2.5 page views in less than 2 months without any contact/advertisement.

                          Almost 70-80% are CS students and 80-90% of them use Adblockers. And I got that script and my revenue raised almost 50-60%. So why should I not use Anti adblocker?

                          I know my content and users ... they will disable it and come for the content.

                          For now, I am saving some money for the future development of this extension for more features like if I can offer a premium to my members.

                              xasharma my writing should not affect with anyone how they operate. People are different. It depends whether you only care about 'money' or you care about 'others' and is it what value you're to them? are your visitors just piece of paper? or it turns out that piece of paper might be the most valuable thing you ever own.

                                  Braden

                                  True.

                                  BTW I didn't mean that in a rude way. I just want to try 😅

                                    I run Ads on my website, while running a Pi-Hole to block ads on my network at the DNS level AND uBlock origin on FireFox on my phone/pc.

                                    I don't like Ads, but for my projects taking sponsors or paid posts would be counter-intuative and server costs need to be paid.

                                    I didn't realise how much of a JOKE Google Auto Ads have become though.

                                    Warning to all users - Auto Ads will place a bottom banner on your site, this BLOCKS the reply to thread box so a user has to lower it in order to see what they are typing/post reply button. Remove it ASAP!

                                      No bro ... google will lift your page (in both mobile and desktop)

                                      for example -

                                        What is the best size for between post? That not look too much and clean

                                          Akito You might like sizes for ad unit in-article and feeds. They are awesome with flarum 🥳

                                              Akito i am sorry i didn't know you dont use Google, in Between post, anything width 100%, with height 90% looks cool also for above header. Usually the ad company with show you the ads category they have for you to choose? For me i usually use snipping tool to do measurements and then pick from the category the one close to my measurement. I hope it that helps

                                                  Akito

                                                  Nothing taller than 400px.

                                                  Width would be ideal at 700-900px for desktop, or about 350-400px for mobile.

                                                      @davwheat Is it possible to print a banner and rotate it when the page is changed without reloading it? I have 4 banners and I want them to rotate but I don't know if it is possible to do it with this extension.

                                                      My current setup is working when I open the page directly but I don't know how to detect that I moved to another page to refresh the banner.

                                                      Code for "Discussion page (under header)" ad unit

                                                      <div style="padding-top:10px" align="center">
	<a id="publi" href="" target="_blank" title="" style="display:none">
		<img id="banner" src="" style="max-width:100%; height: auto">
	</a>
</div>
<script>customAds();</script>

                                                      Custom Footer

                                                      <script>
function customAds() {
  let banner = ['1', '2', '3', '4'];
  let img = ['1.jpg', '2.jpg', '3.jpg', '4.jpg'];  
  let course = ['C1', 'C2', 'C3', 'C4'];  
  var x = Math.floor((Math.random() * 3));
  document.getElementById("publi").href = "https://www.domain.com/banner.php?id=" + banner[x];
  document.getElementById("publi").title = "Course " + course[x];
  document.getElementById("banner").src = "https://static.domain.com/assets/img/banner/" + img[x];
  document.getElementById("publi").style.display = 'block';
}

setTimeout(function() {
    customAds();
}, 1000);
</script>

                                                      Braden It’s ok my false that not providing the use case anyway Thank you <3

                                                      davwheat Thank you 😊 but I have some question about the revive it need to put the script in where you wish to show the ads in there but the extension doesn’t allow the script tag

                                                      In case that not using Option - noscript

                                                          is there anyone else who have thought maybe if the reply shifted at the top would be nice?

                                                            Braden

                                                            First of check your custom CSS (I think You have repositioned the reply and scroll button)

                                                            2nd - If you want a good size of scroll button then change the size of your ad. (160*300 is good)

                                                            <!-- Discussion sidebar [DESKTOP ONLY] -->
<ins class="adsbygoogle"
     style="display:inline-block;width:160px;height:300px"
     data-ad-client="xxxxxxxxx"
     data-ad-slot="xxxxxxx"></ins>

                                                            And it's good for me ... I have 160*200
