    Hi,
    I have the follwing problem:

    I implemented google ads with a shortcode to articles (with a google recommended plugin “advanced ads”). It works fine.
    The problem: on every spot where I added the ad are 2 dots (!) above the ad! always! As well in the article or sidebar. I tried several different plugins – same thing. I tried to insert the code with the “code block” or “text” – same thing. Do you know why?

    Thank you for your help

    Hey Oliver,

    Please try the following in Quick CSS under Enfold->General Styling:

    ins:before {
      display:none;
    }

    Best regards,
    Rikard

    Thank you…but sorry – didn’t work. I recently contacted the support of the plugin “Advanced Ad”. They noticed following error:

    “The dots come from the CSS, i.e. from the layout that is embedded on the page. See “css” screenshot in the appendix.

    The link under which this is included is https://applijo.com/wp-content/uploads/dynamic_avia/avia-merged-styles-a94ce653b48db8df9112a162382fec3b.css

    This looks like all CSS files have been combined automatically, but I have no idea which service is behind it. Probably something with “Avia”.
    If the combination of the CSS files is removed, then I certainly see where this rule comes from. That could be the theme.”

    So it is a theme issue and the avia theme isn’t installed?!

    How would I fix this?

    thank you!

    Hi Oliver,

    Can you please disable css merging for now, so that we can see where it is coming from?

    Hi Oliver,

    Thanks for the update, though I can’t see the dots anymore? I can’t see any ads either for that matter, I’m not sure why?

    Best regards,
    Rikard

    Hi Rikard,
    now you can see the ads and dots again.

    I turned off the Plugin “WP Fastest Cache” which causes problems with the Ads Plugin from time to time (I testet several cache plugins in combination with several different Ad Plugins. This happens all the time…)

    thank you + best regards,

    Hi Oliver,

    Thanks for that, please try this CSS instead:

    ins:before {
      content:none;
    }

    You will likely need to clear the cache from your plugin to be able to see the changes. Here’s a simply guide on when not to use a caching plugin.

    Best regards,
    Rikard

    Hi Rikard,

    thank you. I already disabled the caching plugin as well as jetpack. But sorry…did not work. There are still dots above the ads. Any new idea?

    best regards
    Oliver

    …sorry: and yes, I deleted the cache and minified css/js
    thanks

    Hi,

    The CSS is applying but is being overridden, please try this instead:

    ins:before {
      content:none !important;
    }

    Best regards,
    Rikard
