    It only happens on my ipad and I havent updated that thing in a while. So, I dont know if its an isolated event as to me not updating the software on it or if anybody else is having a problem with a redirection to that page.

    I do too when I browse from my phone.

    However, I am glad because I won a $1000 Walmart giftcard.

    It has been going on for a while. Go to the "website messed up" thread a few below this one and you can see the last few pages are about the same thing. I even posted a picture of what the ad is. It is extremely annoying when browsing on your phone.

    Currently Clutch isn't bothering to do anything about this. Good luck.

    How do you know? He could be working behind the scenes and it maybe a really hard one to fix or he could be overwhelmed with other more important life stuff.

    I've spent a lot of time on this trying to fix it and it seems to go away, then returns. It's very difficult for me to fix because I don't experience it... so it's like trying to find a needle in a haystack... while blindfolded.

    So maybe what I can do is set up a beta test theme that those who are experiencing this regularly can use (it would look just like the current theme) and I can make drastic changes to the advertising there. Once it's clear what the problem is, then bring it over to the main themes. Should I duplicate the light or dark theme?

    Strange,

    I assumed this was his doing.

    Also,

    I would be glad to beta test. It's happening to me constantly.

    Thanks!
