WordPress and AdBlock

[BarbaraC Profile Private messageWebsite]

If any of you who use WordPress.com recently added "AdBlock" to your browser, you may have to disable it because it very seriously interferes with the ability write posts. You can't write anything other than a title.

I don't know who's at fault here, but I do wish someone would fix it.

Not saying it's right for that to happen but I'm guessing that might be because use of the free Wordpress blog site automatically includes google ads for the price of the free webpage service. You could check on the Wordpress support/forum on their site to see if they are working to fix it or if someone has found a way to address the issue or work around it.

I haven't run into that problem probably because I host my own Wordpress site and don't have ads.

It was on the forum where I discovered what was disabling my site. And yes, I'm sure it was done on purpose, but it ticked me off because I subscribe to their newsletter, and they didn't let out even a peep about it. I imagine lots of users have been tearing their hair out trying to get their sites to function.
