Thanks for this. More reading, ha. Appreciate your help and will let you know if I find a solution.

It seems to be a problem with Amazon that has been going on a long time!

Yes, I'm just picking up on that lol. Not a fault with WA or my theme then.

Looks like you are well covered here!

Hey Russell

You want to ensure that your ad code is correct and up-to-date.

Compatibility with Amazon Native Ads.

Check that you've enabled the native ads to feature in your Amazon Associates account.

Paste in the text interface of your block editor vai Custom HTML.

Oh, let me check I have it enabled.

Okay

Product Advertising API, > Native Shopping Ads > ON

I can't see an option to switch Native Shopping Ads on and off in my Amazon Associates account. Is this a thing?

I am able to grab the code and put it in the Ad Inserter plugin. I've also cleared all cache and excluded amazon-adsystem.com from delayed javascript execution.

Still no native shopping ad (I'm using the "Custom Ad").

Any other ideas?

Russell

You need to create an ad unit. Click "Create ad unit" and follow the prompts to configure it

When that's done you will be provided with the ad code. Paste that code into your site.

Yes, that's what I have Abie. :( I've contacted support to see if it's a hosting issue.

Search Engine Optimization

Hi there, I am thinking it will make more sense for my pillar posts to have the same URL suffix as their category. The URLs would look like this:

POST
https://domain.

I agree

-Mike

Use the first one as it keeps the url short and simple the first one is recommended for SEO

Is having a post with the same url suffix as a category bad for seo?
