Anyone else getting a white band at the bottom of your screen

[dweller]

when you rec a thread ?
It’s across the bottom, about 1/8th of the screen on my phone blocking text etc

I logged out to log back in, but before I logged in, the white stripe was there already. I logged in and it was gone, but back when I recc’d a thread. It goes away if I reload the page.
I think it is ad related …

4. Looks like it.

I recd another thread and it appeared. Backed out and it disappeared.

[dweller]

5. Are you on a phone, tablet, laptop or desktop ?

Curious how much it covers different screens ..

6. Laptop. I'll get

the tablet out and see what happens.

7. Did the same thing on

the 2016 iPad, but not on iPhone13. Weird.

Took up about an 1/8th of the screen.

[dweller]

8. I've only iPhone 6

So small screen and 1/8th is a lot

I sent the info to ATA

9. I have gotten this when I needed to log in to avoid getting ads

So I think it might be a place holder for an ad that did not display. As was suggested in the OP by dweller.

10. It does it on my desktop. But not on my phone, so far.

[sinkingfeeling]

12. Yes, when I was on my PC. Haven't seen it on my phone.

[dweller]

13. I guess this is a new thing

I’ve sent it to ATA, so maybe they will look onto it

14. It was just an average white band.

Nothing special.

[LizBeth]

15. On my laptop all the time but when I post a reply, since yesterday.

[dweller]

16. I've noticed

It also appears when I bookmark a thread
Again it goes away when I reload or go back to Latest page

17. Just now when trashing a thread.

[dweller]

19. So that's another

Reccing, bookmarking and trashing causes the white band
🤔

18. I'm getting it today.

I'm using a desktop. It's just a bit over one inch so isn't distracting. It's just there.

[dweller]

20. So I guess

It’s occurring more often ?
I thought it was just me at first …

21. Maybe it's contagious!

22. We're aware of this

As per usual when it comes to odd things happening on DU, this appears to be related to a change made by our ad provider which has produced unexpected results.

You may see the white strip appear intermittently while we work on getting things back to normal. It's annoying, but it's nothing nefarious.

[dweller]

24. Thanks !

I thought it was probably ad related … you guys are the greatest

[dweller]

25. And just like that !

The issue is resolved … at least for me

Great job EarlG and Elad !
