Solved Pages reloading and other janky behaviour recently.

Some ad is making the site almost unusable.

Get screenshots, send them to support@bigfooty.com with your device and browser details.

Try the site on a different device and/or browser and see if you get the same issue. Include those details in your email, too.

If you know how to, get the HTML code or tag for the ad, send it along, too. That helps narrow down the specific ad.

Seems to be some weird behaviour on Chrome this morning to do with the ads on the side panels.

Can't scroll down. Doesn't seem to be an issue on Edge.

Update also doing it on Edge. The culprit seems to be the Telstra Samsung ad. Other ads such as the Free Subway delivery aren't causing the issue.

Will this get better or worse? Need more funds guys?

What is that??

Yeah that one is causing me grief too.

What is that??

It's a Telstra ad. Whenever that ad appears you can't scroll down the page, it keeps jumping straight back to the top when you try scroll down. On PC using Edge.

Same issue with that ad on Chrome and Edge.

Same issue with that ad on Chrome and Edge.

The one with sweeeeet deal across the top is killing me, can't even see what the ad is actually for. I don't know if that is the Telstra ad.

Just a quick question or heads up. When I attempt to login to Big Footy on my i-phone, I am diverted to one of two Spam Shopping / content sites. The sites are persistent and wont let me get to Big Footy. I tried using a different search engine, but the problem persisted. It only happens on my i-phone, not on the laptop I am currently using.
It does not happen when I visit any other sites using Safari.
Have other members experienced similar issues?

 

[Chief]

Yes that seems to be some issue. I reckon it's an ad that Google or pals haven't spotted. I pass on all of the information you guys give me. Screenshots and URLs are good for that. Please grab them if you can and send them over.

Hi Chief, why when someone posts a video I just get an unsupported media message? Audio and twitter links are fine. I am using the app on a samsung phone.
Cheers.

Also having janky behaviour. Ads on the sides often make parts of the page, like buttons to change page, unclickable. This has been ongoing for a while, have to reload a few times to get past them.

Using Chrome on Widows 10.

Yea I had thought we had gotten rid of those but they keep coming back.

I generally have no issue with ads, but the Dulux ad on top of the screen is frustrating. When I try to scroll down it keeps going back to the top of the page. Device is a Samsung tablet using Chrome.

It should have been removed - are you still seeing it?

Yeah it's still popping up fairly regularly. Only on my tablet though, doesn't pop up on my phone or laptop (both using Chrome as well)

Dulux ad has been getting me yesterday and today as well.

Same issues like the Telstra, sweeeeet ad.

Win 10, Chrome (up to date).

I'm having issues with chrome and the page skipping back to the top/ reloading/ unable to scroll down. Guessing this is what is being described here. Fine on edge.

edit oh it's the dulux ad?

Yes it is the DUlux ad. Refresh the page.

 

[Jugada]

Dulux ad can get ****ed. Constantly refreshing and closing and reopening browser but always comes back eventually

Yes sorry it is a pain and it should not be running.

Yeah good to know I am not the only one with this trouble. It is ******* annoying. Google Chrome is the browser if that matters.
