On a couple of sites that I oversee, I updated The Events Calendar PRO this morning along with other plugins, after which I noticed that some ads on the sites were no longer displaying. The ads are in widgets, using the Widget Visibility feature. The ads which are set to “Show” when on “Front Page” are not appearing (on the front page or elsewhere), while the other ad block, which is set to “Hide” when on “Front Page” (thus creating ads just for the front page and another set for everywhere else, occupying the same space) show on the front page (which they shouldn’t), and are showing everywhere else on the site (as they should be).<\/p>\n
So for whatever, the logic that tells a widget to display or hide when viewing the front page has been broken by 3.9.1.<\/p>\n
On hpcwire.com (the production site) I have temporarily disabled ECP, so that you can see what the site should look like (and so that we can have our ad commitments fulfilled) and I have created a staging site, where I reactivated ECP, so that you can see the issues. Note that on the staging site front page, the ads aren’t displaying because conditional logic is not declaring the ad zones that it’s trying to display, because they shouldn’t be on the front page, but the code trying to display the ads does appear in the source code.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-933775","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"yoast_head":"\n
