Title: Infinitely loading ads Last modified: March 6, 2018 --- # Infinitely loading ads * Resolved [Machine IT Services](https://wordpress.org/support/users/machineitsvcs/) * (@machineitsvcs) * [8 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/infinitely-loading-ads/) * The update that was just pushed is causing an infinite loading of ads in my site’s footer. I’ve had to disable the ads entirely in the plugin’s settings. - This topic was modified 8 years, 3 months ago by [Machine IT Services](https://wordpress.org/support/users/machineitsvcs/). * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Finfinitely-loading-ads%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US) to see the link]_ Viewing 7 replies - 1 through 7 (of 7 total) * Plugin Author [Thomas Maier](https://wordpress.org/support/users/webzunft/) * (@webzunft) * [8 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/infinitely-loading-ads/#post-10045054) * Hi Machineitsvcs, * I am sorry to read that the update could cause an issue like you described it. * I checked the changes carefully and there is nothing that could cause this. * However, there have been some cases with such a behavior when an ad of the “ad group” type was used which was in the same group it was representing. Could that be the case here? * Thomas * Thread Starter [Machine IT Services](https://wordpress.org/support/users/machineitsvcs/) * (@machineitsvcs) * [8 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/infinitely-loading-ads/#post-10046277) * No, that’s not how I have it set up. And everything was working fine before the update earlier. I noticed the ads loading similarly before but it was only after a prolonged period of time when the tab was open in another tab than what was active, which I didn’t really consider as an issue and seemed to be related to the cache buster. Now when a page loads, the page does not finish loading whatsoever and the ads on the bottom stack up within milliseconds. I also pay for the Pro version. I can offer temporary admin access and enable the ads on my site so you can see the issue I’m referring to. Let me know what I need to do. * Thread Starter [Machine IT Services](https://wordpress.org/support/users/machineitsvcs/) * (@machineitsvcs) * [8 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/infinitely-loading-ads/#post-10047256) * I have downgraded the plugins (base and pro) to their previous versions and the issue no longer exists. - This reply was modified 8 years, 3 months ago by [Machine IT Services](https://wordpress.org/support/users/machineitsvcs/). * Thread Starter [Machine IT Services](https://wordpress.org/support/users/machineitsvcs/) * (@machineitsvcs) * [8 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/infinitely-loading-ads/#post-10047395) * I have thoroughly tested these updates and it appears that the issue is actually with the Advanced Ads Pro plugin! I was using the previous versions of both plugins, and everything was working correctly, so I decided I’d update the Pro plugin first, and now I get the infinitely loading ads in my footer, while still using the previous version of the Advanced Ads plugin. I hope this helps. * Update: I have now updated the Advanced Ads plugin, and reverted the Pro plugin back to its previous version, and everything still works as expected. I have made the Pro plugin folder immutable to prevent my site from attempting to automatically update it. - This reply was modified 8 years, 3 months ago by [Machine IT Services](https://wordpress.org/support/users/machineitsvcs/). * Plugin Author [Thomas Maier](https://wordpress.org/support/users/webzunft/) * (@webzunft) * [8 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/infinitely-loading-ads/#post-10047582) * Hi MachineITSvcs, * thank you for narrowing it down. * I would indeed like to see the issue in action.
