What's going on with ads popping up and covering the top 25% of the screen, to the point of over lapping posts.

Anything we can do to help? Happy to have one of these sent over to encourage the tech team. Massive ads are doing my head in now.

It's really intrusive and infuriating. Please make it stop.

If you clear your cache for the site it should fix itself.

This should help if you use Chrome: https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/32050?c...

Leithan - I'm not seeing it broken in Safari. Have you cleared your cache?



irocfan - what browser are you on and have you cleared your cache?

Have cleared history and all seems good now - PITA though, having to log back in to so many sites...

Annoying, yeah, sorry you have to log back in to websites.

But in the future you can clear cache for just one site rather than all sites: https://www.dexteroid.com/how-to/clear-individual-...

Getting to the point where I give up with PH forum. Can't read the top treads or posts.

I fixed your problem, however the new ads are now so large, that along with all the other stuff at the top of every page, there is now no forum content at all on a page without scrolling down.

Which genius thought that this was acceptable?
It is in no way acceptable!

Yes it is a pain in the ass but a small irritation for a free forum that has to be funded somehow.

Depends on how you define small, I suppose.

Well, here's the thing, the new supersize ads now take longer to load, I've scrolled past them before they've arrive on screen, so I never see any of them!
Smart move, NOT!
