  Hello, my mobile users have reported that the ads on show up even on the body of text. Is this normal? Is there a way to set the ads to show up only on the top and the bottom?

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

  hi,

  If you are asking about WordAds, then the placement of the ads depend on your selected theme.

  Hi –

  No, that’s not normal. The ads should never interfere with the actual content and should be in sidebars and at the bottom of posts..

  Have you seen this yourself on the mobile view?

  I can try to replicate and see for myself if you can find out what type of device and browser is in use when this happens. Even a screen shot would be great.

  Thanks :)

  How do I attach an image?

  I have tried it for myself on my mobile and do see many ads sprinkled inbetween the body of text.
  I have my blog set to have Accelerated Mobile Pages, if that’s of any relevance, but have turned it off for the moment thinking it will help. Weirdly though, the mobile version still doesn’t use my normal theme.

  Sorry for the late reply. As far as I can tell, this happens to all of my pages.

  Weirdly though, the mobile version still doesn’t use my normal theme.

  That is because you have the WordPress Mobile Theme active instead of using the mobile version of your actual theme – the Mobile Theme is there as a fallback for sites using older themes that are not mobile friendly already, but your theme is mobile-friendly, so you don’t need to use the Mobile Theme.

  Please try deactivating the mobile theme at https://rpgnoob.wordpress.com/wp-admin/themes.php?page=mobile-options, and then check if the ads are still being placed inside your content.
