AdSense code on your site not linked to this AdSense

@robashman Sorry to hear you’ve been encountering issues with connecting the AdSense module. There may be a number of reasons why you’re encountering this notice, including the below:
– You may have pasted in AdSense code directly into your theme files, a theme setting or additional plugin, using an incorrect AdSense ID
– You may be signed into a Google account not associated with that AdSense account
– You may have restored a backup or demo package from a site with previous adsense code

If you can try temporarily remove all existing AdSense tracking code from your side are you then able to connect to the AdSense module? If you share your site URL or Site Health information we can troubleshoot further.

@robashman Thanks for providing the additional details. Can you try temporarily deactivating your WP Quads ads plugin before disconnecting the Site Kit AdSense module and trying to connect once more? (Site Kit > Settings > AdSense > Edit > Disconnect AdSense from Site Kit)

If that fails please inform me whether you’ve used the same Google account to setup Site Kit that you have connected with AdSense.

Hi @jamesosborne
I have tried as you suggested but this has not made any difference to the error message being displayed

The site to the best of my knowledge has always had this Adsense account associated with it. I have checked the ads.txt file and again this only shows the one account listed within it. the only thing I have noticed is there is a TXT file entry in the DNS records for google but I guess this could be for the analytics part?

Rob

@robashman Looking at your site I can see the AdSense placed Auto ads code on your site, so everything looks setup as it should be. I don’t see any problems with your ads.txt file also, although that would be something the AdSense Help Center can confirm.

Can you share a screenshot of the error or notice from your screen?

Hi @jamesosborne

here is the screen shot from the setup page error I am getting

@robashman Updated: Thanks for providing the screenshot, very useful. From checking your site I see one AdSense account ID placed via Site Kit which differs from the AdSense account ID used with your WP Quads ads plugin.

Can you try temporarily deactivating WP Quads one more or alternatively reset Site Kit and connect with the same Google account you use for your existing AdSense account?

Hi @jamesosborne

I have found the issue, on the server there was a random HTML file that had a different CA-PUB id contained within it, I have updated this file with the correct CA-PUB and now get the message “Let’s get your site ready for ads
After you’ve finished setting up your account, we’ll let you know when your site is ready to show ads. This usually takes less than a day, but it can sometimes take a bit longer.” as my Adsense account is already live and is showing earnings I guess there is nothing more for me to do or validate. Could you confirm please either way.

Many thanks

Rob

Hi @jamesosborne

I thought the issue had been corrected but sadly it is still reflecting the same message,

Since the last message I have done the following
deactivated and then uninstalled WP Quads

tried resetting up site kit again (no difference)

deactivated and uninstalled site kit

reinstalled site kit
tried setting up Adsense again, same error message about finding another account details

reinstalled wpquads

downloaded from the server the entire directory that the website is saved in (including sub folders)

did a search within all files and folders for CA-PUB and also ca-pub (incase its case sensitive) all details found reflect the correct pub ID for the account.

im not sure what else I can do unless you have a debug tool for the app that will list where the plugin is finding the other account details so I can manually correct the issue.

Any thoughts before I delete the entire site! :p

Rob

@robashman From checking your site your homepage still features Auto ads snippets using two different AdSense Auto ads publisher IDs.

If you don’t have Auto ads placed using WP Quads can you check your front-page.php and home.php file for any Auto ads snippets which may have been manually placed?

If you’re unable to determine the source of the snippet please try with another theme temporarily active. Site Kit has placed the Auto ads snippet using a function which will apply to other themes also, it may be useful to check with another theme active for the additional snippet.

Hi @jamesosborne

I have tried all of the above suggestions with no change in results, I have also tried uninstalling the WP quads again, uninstall site kit, deactivated EVERY plugin on the site, removed permissions from the google account for Adsense, reinstalled site kit, set all the permissions back up and again still received the same error.

I also went through the code of every page in the root directory and found one instance with a Adsense code, that was correct CA-PUB number,

As it stands the add feature is functioning and revenue is reflecting on the Google AdSense page.

I am now at a complete loss as to where to go and look now.

Do you have a debugger for this app at all?

Rob

@robashman Unfortunately from our side we’re unable to determine the placement method. As you can see from this screenshot there are two AdSense Auto ads codes remaining.

If you deactivate WP Quads temporarily and switch themes temporarily I can check again. Just let me know after you do so and I’ll check.

Hi @jamesosborne

I have just raised a question about this on the WPQuads plugin forum page, hopefully somebody there will be able to give me a pointer where the random code is located in the app.

Rob

@robashman Great, let us know how you get on. The Auto ads code may be placed in your theme files, theme settings or other plugins with snippet integrations.

If you’d like to troubleshoot the source of the snippet please temporarily switch themes and deactivate all plugins before checking your source code for the additional AdSense snippet. You can then reactivate each plugin one by one before checking your source code one more.

@robashman Just following up with you on this issue. Did you have any luck in location the source of your additional Auto ads code snippet?
