Okay so around 67% of "hits" (not logged-in-users) on this website are on a mobile device.

The sidebar has been there since 2006, for desktop computers (and it now works on a tablet if you have it in landscape view not portrait - but who does that?).

So the sponsors weren't getting the views they deserve for keeping the place free to use.

Soooooo, I have (and am) trying to create a sponsors 'block' (area) within the forum, and forum categories, and then threads, which displays a rotating banner position and all sponsors share it. Max 3 per page.

Can people test this out for me and tell me what they are seeing and / or getting?

Cheeeeeers

p.s. screen prints win prizes.
 
They pop up in every thread I view.

Actually @westward- although 2 ads per one post isn't right. Were you viewing a thread with only two posts because it's set at 3 ads max per page. The whole page. So two posts per page should show one in first post and one in random (so second in your case) then one elsewhere not in a post at all.

Can you confirm that was a 2-post thread and if so refresh it a few times see what happens for me now..

pps this thread had two posts and two sponsors in first post during this page.

So it's set wrong.

Try that now.
 
Most threads now have posts with ads in them. The trouble is it looks like the thread poster has inserted the image themselves at first.
