Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted January 22Jan 22 I would like to put a Google Skyscrapper on my right columnI activate a new Custom Block with the Google code in the “content” area. The custom block can be activated with the block manager. But absolutely nothing displayed. I should have missed somethingThe google code is something like <script async src="https://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-xxxxxxxxx" crossorigin="anonymous"></script> <!-- toto --> <ins class="adsbygoogle" style="display:block" data-ad-client="ca-pub-xxxxxxxxxxx" data-ad-slot="3578676605" data-ad-format="auto" data-full-width-responsive="true"></ins> <script> (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); </script>
January 22Jan 22 You will want to inspect the page to ensure that our software is outputting the Javascript on the page. If it is, there is no more that we can do to assist you and you’ll want to contact Google for assistance. I am not a Google expert so I can’t tell you what is going on but I will say, in my experience, if you have a new account or new code, Google does take a while to activate ads to the page. They may never fully deliver ads to certain page either.

January 22Jan 22 Author The Google block is the last one on the right column of https://{My_Website}/forumsThe Google block is named “Google” in custom blocksStored Acces Information updatedThanks a lotPS: I changed the code of the block for an other advertiser, same result.
January 23Jan 23 Before we continue, the simplest way to check the block itself is outputting, is to add some text under all the code. Just add something like <p>TEST</p> and see if that appears.
Wednesday at 10:16 AM2 days Author Renaming the block solved the problem. The Google ad block is now displayed correctly.I have one major surprise though. The Google Ads offered are generic and independent of my recent Google searches or even the theme of my Invision forum.As if the Google invocation code was encapsulated and did not read cookies ... strange.
