Google changed responsive ad code

[yaashul]

Hi,

Google did not announce this change. Before 2nd March 2022 on this page [support.google.com ] custom responsive ad code contain

<!-- example_responsive_1 -->
<ins class="adsbygoogle example_responsive_1"
 style="display:inline-block"
 data-ad-client="ca-pub-XXXXXXX11XXX9"
 data-ad-slot="8XXXXX1"></ins>
<script>
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
</script>

I have checked it with wayback machine - here is the link [web.archive.org...]


Now this page [support.google.com...] is showing

<!-- example_responsive_1 -->
<ins class="adsbygoogle example_responsive_1"
 style="display:block"
 data-ad-client="ca-pub-XXXXXXX11XXX9"
 data-ad-slot="8XXXXX1"></ins>
<script>
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
</script>

A Silent change from style="display:inline-block" to style="display:block".
Did you hear this announcement anywhere?

Why would that really warrant an announcement, though? In other words: does it matter?

I believe that was announced [support.google.com...]

I am not talking about this change.

client=ca-pub-1234" crossorigin="anonymous"

I have changed the code yesterday from display: inline:block todisplay:block and result are amazing.

Right but that URL shows it without the "inline"?

I think the web.archive.org link shows an older version, to contrast with the newer version.

This is indeed now one year old

It is showing display:inline:block on 2nd March 2022. How can it be 1 year old?

My oldest Adsense code from 25/02/2021. already had:

style="display:block; text-align:center;"


So even then it was within the Adsense account. They probably changed that on the website with a delay.
