Greetings,

On my index page I have 3 ad slots, all of which have been functioning properly up until today. The same ad blocks also appear through-out the site. Suddenly, today, just on my index page only, two of the ads are not showing and the one that is showing is showing in Russian (this is an English site). All of the other pages look good, it is just on the index page (home page) where this problem is occurring. I've tried to find answers on Google's forum and support - to no avail. When I wrote them they wrote back basically saying they are too busy to address the issue.

I've tried disabling the block and then re-enabling it - nothing is working. It appears that if a Google ad runs on my home page as of today - it will run in Russian. Prior to today I had no problem with this.

I thought I would post this here to see if anyone has come across this issue before, and if so, what the fix is.

Thanks in advance for any insight you can give on this.

To narrow this down as from Google Adsense or the module, you can try pasting an ad (i.e. the entire Ad code from your Google account) into a new regular block, and see if it is Russian too.

If it behaves differently, then it is the module, otherwise it is Google who are doing this.

Thank you, yes I pasted an ad (i.e. the entire Ad code from my Google account) into a new regular block, and put it on my home page - it appears in Russian so I know without a doubt it is Google that is doing this.

Now the problem is HOW to stop them from doing this... ugh!

Thanks for your help, happy new year to you.
