How do I know if I'm using adblock plus or a similar extension? Where can i check?  I use my cellphone and laptop to pull up the website and I can see the images. I'm confused as to why you can't see the image. 😞

 

 

***edit** I've just checked my browser and I don't have any extensions that I'm using***

Some affiliate images are blocked by ad blocking extensions. If users use them, they won't see aff images, like me.

Also I don't see a way to increase the image size. Did you try checking at Amazon, when you get the link, to see if they provide an option for that?

The issue is that these "images" aren't just images. You have used code to add images that are wrapped up within advertising code that is designed to track users.

Anyone with a privacy tool (an "ad blocker") will not see the images at all because they will be considered "Amazon advertising" and will be blocked. Some browsers may have this built in.

The workaround is to replace these Code Blocks with standard images in Image Blocks. You will be able size these to meet your needs, and you can add your affiliate link to the Image Block so that when clicked/tapped, it sends users to Amazon.
