Testing Poll without Google Ads

[Jim]

Here we go again. I am pretty sure this will work, so I am anxious to see the results.

Go nuts!

In closed topic it worked, but here it doesn't work for me.

I did not expect that....strange.

Voted (for 1), after sending, the results are not visible.

After refresh with F5, I was redirected to voting, and I could vote agan (this time for 2). Results are still not visible.

EDIT:

I logged out to see the results, and none of my votes are indicated (just like in the previous locked topic). There is two possibilities:

1. The poll doesn't work properly.

2. My person is so underwhelming and out of interest, that even a script in internet ignores my presence...

So, the problem is not caused by the themes and not caused by Google Ads.

I will provide Invision with a regular member account and let them test it.

Hi Jim

on my iPhone at work

voted "how am I supposed to know?"

vote box disappeared after I voted and it thanked me for it, show results disappeared too

refreshed page

vote box reappeared, with boxes for me to vote again and show results displayed

clicked show results and vote boxes and "show results" disappeared again

Poll collapsed after voting again.

[Jim]

Thanks guys. Still the same problem.

I have enough information to go back to Invision 

[Ngoc Nguyen]

But why did you suspect the Google Ads?

There were some things in the console output which made them a suspect. And Invision confirmed that there are known issues with Google Ads. So I figured this had to be the problem. I am quite surprised we are still experiencing the issue.

Seems to work for me.

It counted my vote, it shows results.

 

with Chrome.

[Jim]

Another theory/question; who is using an ad-blocker or something similar?

I don't and my poll works. Captainmib, are you using an ad-blocker?

[Dave21]

It worked for me. 

Windows 10, Chrome with adblocker

[jotta93]

Didn't work for me on my Android phone, same problem as before

I understand it's not working. Let's focus on these questions.

Are you using an ad-blocker or something similar?

[Saberwing40k]

I tried taking the poll, and it disappeared after voting. I have no ad blocker.

[jotta93]

I have no ad-blocker either

[Siegfried Meyer]

 I have adblock and worked  on first try 

Using chrome & adblock, only asked me to allow eurobricks notifications, if that helps 

[BusterHaus]

Works for me, voted, vote was counted, could see the results.

Firefox with uBlock Origin (ad blocker) on Windows 7.  FYI the poll you made a few days ago didn't work for me.

hi jim,

just tested on my work laptop running Firefox on Windows 7 Professional

followed same procedure as on my iphone and got the same outcome

[Jim]

Okay, so the ad-blocker doesn't seem to be of influence. Thanks.

So it all boils down to my first observation and that is that it's a random problem, which might be depending the load of the server.

[TechnicSummse]

Everything worked fine this time.

-> win7 professional, chrome including adblocker

[Aventador2004]

Collapsed, but the theme is cool.

Wait @Jim, it works in your poll topic from 5 hours ago, I was able to vote and see results.
