Col_T Posted February 4, 2021 Report Posted February 4, 2021 Since the latest upgrade, there is an images frame at the top of the main page. Is there an option whereby I can hide these - they take up space, are a distraction and, currently, are all attributed to DarrenAldridgeBoatFitters so could be construed as advertising, not something I would want to see and, I think, in breach of forums rules. Thanks in advance, and congratulations on getting the last upgrade resolved so successfully - a great improvement. Colin T. 2
restlessnomad Posted February 4, 2021 Report Posted February 4, 2021 Its annoying but only shows up on desktop and I think most people use mobile here.

Jen-in-Wellies Posted February 4, 2021 Report Posted February 4, 2021 At least at one point before there have been pictures, or videos on the main screen of the desktop version. They never changed from week to week. A bit pointless.

Keith M Posted February 4, 2021 Report Posted February 4, 2021 I only use a desktop and i find the images very annoying plus the advertising as well.
mrsmelly Posted February 4, 2021 Report Posted February 4, 2021 (edited) No images either on my android fone or on my chromebook. Edited February 4, 2021 by mrsmelly
Guest Posted February 4, 2021 Report Posted February 4, 2021 This is definitely something that only affects the desktop version of the site. Using Chrome on my PC they are there (On the forum home page no where else) Using Chrome on my Samsung Tablet they are not, however if I switch to 'use desktop version of this site' on my tablet they appear. Yes that are bluddy annoying (as nice as the work is)
eid Posted February 4, 2021 Report Posted February 4, 2021 I'm using a browser addon to block it (uBlock Origin). I couldn't find an option on the site itself. 1
Mac of Cygnet Posted February 4, 2021 Report Posted February 4, 2021 I use an Ad Blocker (Adblock plus) and on no page on CWDF does it indicate that it is blocking anything. I would suggest that the ads are nothing to do with CWDF but an outside intrusion such as a PUP (potentially unwanted program). Malwarebytes or similar gets rid of these.
Jerra Posted February 4, 2021 Report Posted February 4, 2021 (edited) No images on my laptop using Chrome. EDIT. I am talking about the home page. Edited February 4, 2021 by Jerra
Keeping Up Posted February 4, 2021 Report Posted February 4, 2021 None on mine either - using Chrome, Edge, IE, Firefox, or Brave
