Only here and only on phone.

I will say I haven't see the problem on other sites recently, but I also haven't seen it here since I disabled Java on my phone & tablet.

Started getting this again yesterday and now getting it again tonight.

I disabled JavaScript on this board. So far so good.

How did you do it just for DIS?

How did you do it just for DIS?

I was able to go into Site Settings and allow JavaScript with exceptions, and entered disboards.com

On your phone, go to Chrome. Click the upper right triple dots. Click on Settings. Scroll down to Site settings. Scroll down to JavaScript. Click Add Site Exception. Add www.disboards.com Click Add.

Ah. I was doing the opposite... turning Java off, then setting exceptions for the websites I needed Java on. This makes it much easier. Thank you.

My three dots are at the bottom and I don't have "site settings".

Are in Chrome? I went to Settings and then Site Settings

 

[wvjules]

Yes, I am in Chrome. I have Content Settings but that doesn't have Java Script in it.

I don't know. When I go into settings I don't have Content Settings

And you are using an Android, Jules?

In Chrome, you should have 3 dots in upper right corner of any Chrome page.

No I'm using an iPhone. I guess we don't have the same options.

Yes, Apple phones are different, not sure where the settings are.

I did search and found this....

just on this site when on my iphone. I only access disboards from my laptop now.

So I turned Java on and set disboards as an exception. First time I came to Dis, "attention google winner!". Java is turned back off

UGH!! What a pain, Sam. Wish I could help better. Wish the PTB would do something.

I’m so sick of this nonsense.

I hadn’t gotten the pop ups in a while when accessing from my iPhone. This last week it has been daily, every time. So frustrating!
