If you could, yes please.
I suspect this may be caused by the recent iPhone problem we had, and its fix. In that case it may not go away - I had one other report of this happening so far, and am already looking into it, even contacted the developer of the add-on.

I want to add my thanks for all the work the admins are doing.
And I have to report that I'm getting non-pen ads in a banner above content and below header material. I'm on an iPad,using the latest IOS. It's not awfully annoying, being just the one.

Do you mean to say you want more than one?

Yes, on an Android phone (MotoG, running Android 5.x). I logged out, then logged in again. When this had no effect, I cleared the cache for FPN, then repeated the process. Not sure if this is what I'm supposed to be seeing, tho'.Thanks, Wim. I did so.

When you're logged in, you should only be seeing our own, direct, pen related ads so to speak. These are a few at the right, and at the top in the Italian pen forums and the Pelikan forum.
HTH, warm regards, Wim

No, I'm still seeing 3rd party or "outside" ads. Currently a Verizon Fios ad. This moring it was something else with movies; definitely wasn't a pen-related ad.

The extra ads are only rarely pen-related ads. I have had some reports of pen ads, actually, but generally they aren't.
Regardless, when logged in you shouldn't see them; we're still working on it. It is a vexing problem, I have to admit.

I'm on a laptop with iOS 10.10.3 and no ads. Yet on the desktop version, there are ads at the top.
