Forum Amazon Affiliate ads causing site issues - help please
 

Last night, I started using Amazon Affiliate ads on my forum, http://www.phillysportscentral.com/forums/forum.php, and since then, I've been having site issues.

For example, if I read a thread and then go back to the thread display, it still looks like the thread is unread.

Also, here are some example comments from my site's users today:

Quote:
if I post in a thread and if I go back to look at the thread I don't see my post or if anyone else posted after the first time I looked at the thread until I do a manual refresh to see the latest post. It also happens when I log in, it acts like I am not logged in until I refresh and then I see my control panel and other options.

To be sure I tried it on IE on another PC and had the same problem(s).

I also have to refresh the page to make it show that I'm logged in.


Quote:
It's not cache/cookies as I've gone through all that to try to fix it. The 2nd PC I tried it on had never been to this site and had the same issue. Just started today, so maybe something is happening with how it's handling cookies/sessions.

I have not made any other changes to the site.

I have placed ads under the header, above the footer, and under the thread display. I also created a Forum Sidebar HTML block and put some ad code in there.

Since these issues started, I have disabled and re-enabled the ads, and completely deleted and re-created the Forum Sidebar HTML block. No change.

Any thoughts/ideas/help out there?
