Is the server down? I can't save on my main computer and this is as far as I can get on this back-up laptop.

It seems the server was down. My site couldn’t be loaded either about one hour ago. It’s fine now.

It depends on what WP version you are using. I am on 5.x on one of my sites and I have the same issue for three days now and they haven't been able to fix it. It is an issue with trying to save and the server rejects the request, it is called a 403 error.
Good luck.

I have no issues on my site that is still at 4.9.10.

Yes, I and many others have had a server issue today. If you're online now, have a look at live chat.

No problems here and I’ve been working all day. Try restarting your machine. Something when basic functions stop working, that’s the answer.

I can't do anything. the websites have been working all day is there server problem?

I finally determined that the AdBlocker extension is killing the WA Banners. Do you recommend that I leave the extension off or is there something else I need to fix.
Thanks

Hey David,

I can share with you as to what I do, but the ultimate decision is truly yours to make.

Using Firefox as my default browser, I prefer to feel safer by using AdBlocker and even though I can say to "unblock this site", I have noticed that my Amazon ads still do not display correctly.

What I do to check my advertisement for alignment and overall look is to use my Opera browser to check. Even Opera has AdBlocker installed it does find using the AdBlocker option to "unblock this site".

So, if you use Chrome as your default browser, check to see if that browser will still let you view all types of ads on your website when you select to "unblock this site". (see screen print below...)

Hope you find this helpful.

Thank you for your response as always. I was wondering if the Amazon ads worked correctly if adblocker is turned off?

As I said, my Amazon ads work fine in Opera with AdBlocke turned off but refuse to be displayed in Firefox even with being turned off.

It is my guess that it depends on your OS (operating system - example Windows/Mac and version), device, and browser used.

It is true that I want an ad blocker but at this time, without it, I am very happy with how everything is looking. Is there a reason why you use Firefox and Opera?
Take Care Young Lady,
David

I have used Firefox for a long time now as my default browser of choice.

And, i use Opera when I want to see WA link when not logged into WA, for checking my site when viewing Amazon iframes or images added to my site, to double-check a website I just updated... that sort of thing.

Hey David,

It is always wise to keep notes as to how you fixed things so that you will have that knowledge for "the next time".

It sounds like one of your plugins are conflicting with either another plugin or your theme.

If you have made any new additions to your plugins, or recently changed your theme... that MIGHT be your issue. Or, you might try disabling one plugin at a time and testing to see if the issue stops... then repeat until you find the guilty plugin.

You should be able to switch between the Visual Editor and the Text Editor by clicking on the tabs, so that TOO might be fixed if it is a plugin causing this.

If all else fails, SiteSupport may be able to shine some light on this for you. https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/websites/support
