getWidthAndHeight was being called twice for each ad placement:
once when setting the size of the div, and once when calling the
defineSlot API. getWidthAndHeight always advances to the next size
in the list, so the wrong size ad would be inserted into the div.
Each ad placement in the AdSense and Ad Manager settings takes a list
of ad sizes instead of only one size. If given multiple sizes, the sizes
will alternate in order for each ad that's rendered.
Ember is firing events multiple times when the ad component is shown.
Only solution I can find is to add a delay between calls to refresh
the ad unit. I chose 3 seconds.
If you want to use one Ad Manager publisher on desktop and a different
one on mobile, use the new dfp_publisher_id_mobile setting.
By default, dfp_publisher_id will be used for both desktop and mobile.
Hidden tags aren't sent to the client, so they couldn't be used to
disable ads on topic pages. Do this calculation on the server.
Topic list pages for tags can continue to check on the client because
non-staff get a 404 error when trying to view a hidden tag's topic list.
Enter a list of tags in the new setting no_ads_for_tags to prevent
ads from being rendered on topics with one or more of those tags,
and on topic list pages for those tags.
DFP category targeting param wasn't always being updated on topic
list pages.
Also remove dependency on a category param being passed in to the
component from a template so that we can now place dfp ads
in places that don't have access to the current category and
targeting will still work.
Use the new "house ads frequency" site setting to configure how often
house ads should show, as a percentage. This only applies in ad
placements where other ad networks are configured to appear.
A new setting has been added in Admin > Settings > Ad Plugin called
"no ads for groups". Add group names to this list. If a user belongs
to any of the groups, they will not see any ads. This is an alternative
to using trust level settings like "adsense through trust level".
