Forms invisible after update

    Hi there,

    the forms I’ve added to my site (one in the footer via a sidebar widget, and one on a page via the shortcode) are invisible since a day or two (I believe).

    I recently updated both Mailchimp for WordPress (4.0.2) as well as Jetpack (to 4.2).

    My site: https://leif.me

    There is a form in the footer on every page, as well as one on https://leif.me/updates/

    It seems the styles for the forms are all set to visibility: hidden and display: none.

    Is this a common issue maybe with something obvious that I’m missing? :/

    Thanks in advance!
    Leif

    Hi Leif,

    Are you running any other code that might apply these styles for you? What happens if you try visiting your site from a different browser?

    I just took a look but I’m seeing all your forms.

    Let me know please.

    Woah, that was swift! ??

    Good point — I’ve tried Chrome now, now that you’ve mentioned it, and they’re all there alright. I don’t see them on Safari 9.1.2 for OS X.

    Fine on Safari on iOS.

    First made me believe it could be a cookie issue or something similar, but private browsing shows the same problems.

    Among the plugins I have installed and looking through my custom CSS, I don’t see anything suspicious … hmmm.

    :facepalm:

    It was an adblocker.

    Sorry for the confusion, all is fine with the plugin. ??

    Hey Leif,

    Glad to hear you figured that out, hah. Are you using AdBlock with a custom filter list by any chance? Would love to know why ad-blockers are hiding our forms, it’s certainly not default behaviour as far as I know.

    PS. Should you have a quick minute to spare, a plugin review here on www.ads-software.com would make us quite happy. ??

    I had this list activated, which seems to also catch a few variations of Mailchimp forms:

    I’ve now switched to Better: https://better.fyi

    Hope that helps!
