Pop ups
 
I know the two threads about unwanted pop ups have been closed. But I’m still having problems. It’s worse than ever this morning. I know I’m only one little soul here, but I can’t even read threads, let alone post a message. Again, I only use safari on my iPad, and this doesn’t happen on any other website. I like the Quilting Board. But I hardly come around any more.......

I also use Safari on my iPad for QB but since admin did the last fix I have been okay with no pop ups other then the regular header and side ads. I do have ads blocked on my iPad though.

they have not been able to replicate the problem again since they did the last "fix."
is there any way you can send me a screen shot by email?
or post it here?

i wish you would also try using a different browser.
not the ideal fix but if switching from safari to something else works, it's worth the few minutes it will take to download and install another one. i don't know if firefox is available for iPads but that's the one i like best on all my computers.

I don't get the ads anymore but I get an annoying "Congrats". I have won something. I close it out and it takes me out of QB and I have to start all over again. Only place this happens. Very annoying. I use my iPad and safari. Can anyone help?

Our techie friend was here on Saturday and he put an ad blocker of my Mac- no more ads!!!!! I was getting tired of seeing Christie Brinkley on the quilt board!

I think it is the Safari browser. I had given it up for reading QB, but last night it happened again on another site "LSN", a local buy/sell site. "Congratulations-you've won etc etc. Infuriating! It's driving me to drink!
So I have another browser on my iPad--'Apollo'--it was free from the app store--and I don't have the pop ups with it. I don't know what to do about Safari. Guess I will just kill it and put it out of it's misery!

I get this on my IPad too. I have to use my iPhone to check out anything so I rarely comment. It’s just Horrible. They ask questions to see if you won and even though I deliberately answer wrong, they say I won.

This is the one I got while trying to read this thread. I’m not a cleveland one customer by the way.
