Can't 'like' or interact with a post above an advert.

Pop up ads back with a vengeance... Constantly moving as well so almost impossible to avoid

Anybody else getting loads more adverts in the past couple of days? I've got some on the page itself, then one along the bottom and now I'm getting a pop up as well that takes up half the screen.

At this point Nick, I wouldn't mind paying to use the site to get rid of the adverts.

Yeah. Doing my head in.

@Nick know you need to cover costs but is there anything less invasive?

Yeah it’s making the site really hard to use. I thought @fernandopartridge had posted a weird video about 5 amazing facts about the universe and life.

I’d happily pay for an ad-free version of SBT to contribute towards the costs of running the site. I’m sure a lot of regulars would be as well.

Getting the same and it’s making the page crash. Basically runs like the Cov telegraph website.

Can you try clearing cache and logging back in?

It's set to not show members so it might think you're logged out (even though you're not)

Sorry

I keep getting video ads pop up on the screen- can these be turned off? It’s happening every time a page is refreshed.

I’m not entirely sure why, but when I’ve attempted to delete an actual post, there appears to be an ad banner at the bottom of the screen, that’s obscuring the actual delete button itself.

No amount of hapless swiping and swearing has achieved anything, I’m afraid.
