Unwanted Lumosity Ads On My Blog

  • Unknown's avatar

    I have only recently noticed ads for something called Lumosity are appearing at the end of my blog posts but only on the ones that have comments attached. I do not want these ads and I would like to know how to get rid of them. The ads appear at the bottom of the text of the blog post then the comments appear after the ad (which is in a great big box).

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    UPDATE – It appears that the Luminosity ad has now been replaced with something else. I don’t want this crap on my blog. How the hell did it get there ? Is it an update to the Contempt theme? Help FFS.

    WordPress.com has been running advertising on our free hosted blogs since 2006. Many bloggers do not know this because despite the fact they ticked the box required to get a free blog, they did not read the ToS. Many also do not read features page, or advertising entry in the support documents after registering their username and blog(s). Also note that as the ads do not display to us when we are logged in, and as many use browsers with ad blockers when logged out, they may not realize they are there at all. The only way to get rid of all advertising on our free hosted WordPress.com blogs is to purchase an annually renewable No-Ads upgrade.

    If you feel an ad is inappropriate please take a screenshot of it and send it to Staff by emailing support@wordpress.com or upload it into your Media Library and contact Staff and let them know it’s there for them to view.
