WP DFP Loads Twice (Ads Flicker)

  • Resolved Zack

    I have a leaderboard ad slot in the header of my page. The ad(s) displayed in this slot is loading twice on each page load. Ad 1 preloads and then, once page fully loads, Ad 2 displays over the top in the same slot. This results in a flicker effect on each page load.

    Any ideas?

    I’m using WP DFP v1.1.5 on WordPress 4.3.1

    Here’s the code from the plugin:

    Body:

    <div class="wp-dfp-ad-slot" id="wp-dfp-ad-slot-<leaderboard>">
				<div class="wp-dfp-ad-unit wp-dfp-ad-unit-<leaderboard>" id="wp-dfp-ad-unit-<leaderboard>" data-size-mapping="<leaderboard>" data-adunit="<leaderboard>" style="display: none"></div>
			</div>

    ===========================================

    footer:

    <script type='text/javascript' src='/wp-content/plugins/wp-dfp/js/jquery.dfp.js?ver=2.1.0'></script>
<script type='text/javascript'>
/* <![CDATA[ */
var wpdfp = {"network":"<our network code>","targeting":{"taxonomy":"category","term":"outdoors"},"slots":{"<sidebar ad>":[[[300,250]]],"<leaderboard ad>":{"728":[[728,90]],"0":[[320,50]]}},"messages":{"noNetworkCode":null}};
/* ]]> */
</script>
<script type='text/javascript' src='/wp-content/plugins/wp-dfp/js/wp-dfp.js?ver=1.1.5'></script>

    Sorry for the delayed response on your issue – I never got a notification from WordPress about this post! Are you still having this problem?

    Hello Jonathan,

    I was able to resolve the issue by setting “refreshExisting” to false in jquery.dfp.js.

    Thanks for following up.
