Ads not Displaying

  • I don’t see amazon ads being placed on my website for some reason. The ads are to be placed on the top right and sidebar. Site link – https://datagyan.co.in, The WP theme I am using is called “FirstSite”. It was working fine until 3 days ago but I don’t see the ad anymore. I contacted amazon and below is their response. I am using the affiliate link provided on the site and pasting it on a custom HTML Widget.

    Affiliate links – https://affiliate-program.amazon.in/home/bannerlinks/detail

    We can advise on certain issues that pertain to your account and the program, but we’re unable to assist with actual site-building.

    Anyone can assist on what could be the issue? Google or Stackoverflow didn’t help much.

    Hi,

    Please try temporarily deactivating Auto Amazon Links and see if the problem persists.

    Let me know how it goes.

    Hi,

    Do you mean the auto amazon WP plugin?

    This is the one i had as part of my plugins – https://en.michaeluno.jp/auto-amazon-links/

    I deactivated it(i didn’t use it anyway) but still don’t see the ads.

    Then, the plugin is not the cause of your problem.

    You created this forum topic under the Auto Amazon Links plugin section so I can help with issues relating to the plugin.

    What I can suggest you is to

    – test whether your Amazon script works on a newly installed test site.
    – check whether the problem persists by deactivating all the plugins and switching back to the default theme
    – check the browser console and read error messages
    – test with different browsers

    If I recall correctly, Brave Browser blocks ads so it might be something to do with it.

    If you are pasting an Amazon ad script code, try creating a plain HTML file with the script code.

    Create a text file named test-amazon-script.html and paste the following.

    
<html>
<head></head>
<body>
paste your code here
</body>
</html>

    replace “paste your code here” with the script code and save it. Then open the file in your web browser and see if ads are shown. If they don’t appear, the script code or the linked Amazon server might have a problem.

    Ok did exactly that and see a blank page.

    Is there an amazon affiliate support page on WP? Not the auto ads page.

    I don’t think there is something like that. You need to contact Amazon support once again by telling what you tried last.

    I did contact them. No use. They keep repeating the same template message that it’s not their problem, despite sharing the snippet with them.

    It is weird. I have tried clearing cookies/cache, reinstalled my browser, tried on a different browser, and deactivated common plugins in my dashboard.

    Is there a solution to this?

    You should double-check the script code. Otherwise, I have no idea.
