BIG fail!

ML Adverts is fairly basic – behind the scenes it runs a standard WP_Query.

Mind if I ask how it almost crashed your entire site so I can track down what the issue might be?

Well, first of all I really appreciate that you’re actually taking some interest in what users say.

The thing is like this: I installed the plugin, then I tried making a test with it, for a banner in the header area. Didn’t work, tried another area, didn’t work. So I just deactivated the plugin and when I went to my homepage voila, no articles at all. I could only access them individually but nothing appeared on the homepage.

So I deleted the whole thing. No change. Then I thought it might had something to do with another plugin called Simply Exclude that I’ve been using on my blog for a long time. Because when I created the first advert, I had to check some things on Simply Exclude as well.

I went in debug mode, found the error, deactivated the Simply Exclude plugin and my site is back to normal. But the strange thing is that there was nothing wrong with the Simply Exclude plugin until I installed Ml Adverts.

So this is the entire novel :)) Anyway, the BIG Fail is a subjective opinion and I don’t doubt that your plugin worked for other users.

Hi gandurisinuante,

ML Adverts doesn’t do anything too magical, it is basically a nice interface to a standard custom post type! I suspect the issue lies somewhere with Simply exclude, particularly the ‘Because when I created the first advert, I had to check some things on Simply Exclude as well.’ bit.

I will install Simple Exclude myself and see if I can replicate the issue.

Thanks for getting back to me, if you need a hand setting up ML Adverts then I’d be happy to help – just drop a note in the support forum.

Regards,
Tom.

I have a problem with ML Adverts on my website, that I cannot seem to get an answer on how to fix. It is probably really simple too!!

My site is https://www.ahacommunications.ca/titans2

I want the 2 adverts at the top to be side by side rather than stacked on top of one another.

Please try adding this to your themes style.css file:

ul.ml-adverts-top-of-site li
{
display: inline;
}

Regards
Tom

AWESOME!!!! You did it!!
Thank you so much!!!

I am still learning a lot here, so if you can quickly tell me how to add some space (padding?) at the top above the ads, that would be super!!
