Adsense not showing up on Pagelines 2.0.1
-
Hi,
I seem to be having the same problem as the person in this thread:
http://www.pagelines.com/forum/discussion/8856/adsense-not-showing-up/p1
Now. Here's where the plot thickens.
Everytime I write or edit a post and check it out in "preview mode" I can see the ad. Also, sometimes when I disable a plugin, I can view the ad for that single pageview (that is... disable plugin, check out the site. Click a post, ad no longer displays).
I have tried disabling ALL my plugins, but to no avail.
However, I tried setting up my Pagelines setup on a backup site I created for the sole purpose of checking out AdSense, and it displays fine there, both on frontpage and single posts.
Site: www.einstein.is -
Whats the address of the page with adsense?Simon Prosser - PageLines developer.

Note that the backup page is just the PageLines Framework out of the box, with no plugins, Carousel or anything. -
Well the code is on the page, and it doesnt look broken. Mind you we dont use adsense so i cant tell if it is properly formatted or not.
Do they not have a ads testing mode? Or a checker or anything?Simon Prosser - PageLines developer.

The adsense code is exactly the same on my main site and my backup site, so I know for a fact that the ad is active.
Also a funny thing about the fact that when I make any changes to the widget, the ad appears for a single pageview. Then when I try to see if it works on a single post it doesn't work, neither when I try again on the frontpage.
I have my caching plugins (Hyper Cache for caching, and W3 Total Cache for CDN) and SEO Yoast both disabled right now, but that has no effect on it.
Could it be that something in my .htaccess file could be prevent the ads being displayed? -
Peter, Use your AdSense code (copied straight from your AdSense account) and place it in a text widget which is included in your sidebar where you want it. If you want the ad centered, just wrap it in <center> tags. Don't forget you will not get instant results because it takes Google some time to display an ad the first time. Up to 3 hours.PageLines Moderator, Renaissance Man, Food Expert and Raconteur

Thank you for your respone rangelone but that's exactly how the AdSense code is placed now, and has been for the last 2-3 days. I tried some AdSense widgets so see if it would make any difference, but quickly went back to a simple Text widget with the script code.
I did the same thing on the backup site I created and the ad was displayed immediately. -
I too tried plugins when I first built my sites in WordPress and quickly found the AdSense plugins are awful. Doing what you did through a text widget is exactly what I've done and kept doing and it works perfectly. It should appear on all pages and posts where the sidebar appears in this format. Is that what you're seeing?PageLines Moderator, Renaissance Man, Food Expert and Raconteur

Not appearing at all now.
Main site is einstein.is
The exact same code is running on lolhacker.com/einsteinbackup, fine there, no plugins, but I've tried disabling all plugins so I'm pretty sure I've ruled out any plugin conflict. -
Clear your browser cache then You may need to reinstall your Adsense plugin and put you Adsense code back inCatrina Dulay | Graphic Designer & Cat Lady

Thank you for your response catrina, but I've done that multiple times. I don't have an AdSense plugin as of now. Just the code in a Text/HTML widget.
For a while I thought this was .htaccess related but I'm kinda wandering from that thought, since made a simple html file, put it in my root folder, and the ad displays nicely there. (einstein.is/adsense.html for those interested).
So in a nutshell:
Main site: einstein.is - AdSense not being displayed, with Plugins ON or OFF, or Widgets ON/OFF, or Carousel ON/OFF.
HTML file test: einstein.is/adsense.html - Same code works
Backup test: lolhacker.com/einsteinbackup - Same code works.
I've even tried removing all custom code, and the Google analytics code, but to no avail. -
Hi Peter,
You're adding Javascript into a text widget, the text widget doesn't support javascript. Therefore, the Adsense code doesn't work.
Try this plug-in instead: - http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/allow-javascript-in-text-widgets/Most commonly asked CSS tweaks
Get Firebug - Will make your life much easier!
Please do not send me a PM, unless I ask you too!

Thank you for your input Danny, much appreciated. Hope it works.
I just installed the plugin. Now I'm gonna clear all my caches, and wait a few hours before I check again. -
Updated Pagelines to 2.1 today. 8 hours or so later there has been no change in things.
Same grey box. -
And... the strangest thing is when I look at a post in Preview mode I always see the ad. Always.

I see the add on http://lolhacker.com/einsteinbackup/ And a grey box on http://einstein.is/Simon Prosser - PageLines developer.

Exactly, I also see the ad on einstein.is/adsense.html, so it's not a server issue.
-
Peter, there has to be an error in your ad code someplace, like a missing character or some space that doesn't belong, or a character perhaps that shouldn't be there. I'm trying to work on a solution.PageLines Moderator, Renaissance Man, Food Expert and Raconteur

Or perhaps adsense simply are not showing ads on that domain. I have added adsense code to my blog, same box size as a test.Simon Prosser - PageLines developer.

Peter please follow this link before 6PM EST http://pagelines.goinstant.com/rob. This will allow us to do a screen sharing so that I can see what you see and we can look under the hood together.PageLines Moderator, Renaissance Man, Food Expert and Raconteur

Thanks, will do.
-
Peter, I apologize. Could you sent me a private message (using the Inbox option at the top of this screen) to let me know when you would be available in Eastern US hours? Thanks. We can do an under-the-hood look.
My apologies but the session I was in expired. I wasn't aware that process could expire.PageLines Moderator, Renaissance Man, Food Expert and Raconteur

No problem at all. It gave me time to examine the problem further. PM sent.

Peter, I did not get an email with the login information. I'm going to have Simon look into this as soon as we can get in. He needs to do some debugging.PageLines Moderator, Renaissance Man, Food Expert and Raconteur

Sorry, I was away from home almost all day. Just created the user and sent the information via e-mail.

No worries and thank you. I will send it to Simon first thing in the morning. Have a good weekend.PageLines Moderator, Renaissance Man, Food Expert and Raconteur

Peter, Simon has set up a demo test on his own site and has the exact same problem both in the sidebar and with an ad inside a post. He gets nothing but grey. He's testing on his server.PageLines Moderator, Renaissance Man, Food Expert and Raconteur
Tell us how we are doing in 15 seconds or less -
He has no plugins, so probably not a plugin conflict. We're working on identifying the problem and once that's done, we'll have a solution. Thanks for your patience as we try to work this out.PageLines Moderator, Renaissance Man, Food Expert and Raconteur

To update you, he tested it also in WP default themes and his ads didn't show there either. Can you give that a try? Just activate the Twenty Ten theme in Dashboard > Appearance > Themes. It won't affect your PageLines Framework settings.PageLines Moderator, Renaissance Man, Food Expert and Raconteur

Hi again,
I thought I had replied but that didn't work out. I'm probably changing hosts soon, so I'm gonna try it with the new host and see if it makes any difference. I removed it for now as I don't want to have that unsightly grey box on my site. -
Let us know what happens when you switch hosts.Catrina Dulay | Graphic Designer & Cat Lady
