[Plugin: Awesome Ads – Google Adsense and Others] Temporary failure in name resolution

The exact same thing happened to me today when I tried logging into my site.

I logged in a few days ago and didn’t make any changes since so this is pretty random.

Please help!

FTP into your site (or use whatever file management application your host provides) and delete the wp-content/plugins/awesome-ads folder.

thanks that worked!

besides that solution, i think the problem could be the adult site cheking system embedded in the function.php is the only part that is making a reference to awsmteam.com

BTW if you look inside of the awesome_google_ads.php at the very end of it, the author is injecting their adsense code randomly to “share” our profits

The problem was solved. It was a problem with the DNS.

technoman: We are not injecting our id randomly. You can set the donation percent at the specific field for this.

It was a problem with the DNS.

May I suggest that you consider building a graceful fallback into the plugin in case a similar situation should re-occur?

This happened to me today. For about ten minutes I could not get into my admin panel due to this failure. I deleted the plugin as a result. I can’t risk being randomly locked out of my site like that. It also made the front end of the site extremely slow.

This is happening to me today. I cannot access any part of my blog. I can not get into my plugins to delete. So I tried deleting the whole file from my computer which did not work. I dont know what else to do.

finally got it after hours! UGH!

This is happening again today… The awsmteam.com/verify_adult_content.php seems to be down…

Yup, I’m having the same issue with my site, I’m deleting awesome ads and finding something else. Been locked out of my site for almost 24 hours.

The issue is definitely not solved.

I am having this same issue. VERY frustrated and had to delete the plugin.
