Pocketables

Let us know if anything looks strange / update

Hey all, since the purchase and move I’ve been working at beating the crap out of bugs that have been unaddressed over the past five years. I could use your help.

Please let me know if you see anything funky with the site such as if you’re seeing the mobile theme on a desktop, or can’t see the mobile theme on mobile, or something strange pops up.

For reference, the mobile theme looks like this:

Pocketables notifications

And the standard theme looks like this

And a quick update on things:

Ads: Using Google adsense, have set the ads to automatic and pulled the slider down to where I expect it will pay for the site in five years.

Disqus ads in comments and after posts – I’m attempting to minimize as they’re about 50% garbage. Disqus, however, feels that a free account is worth spamming the hell out of people these days. I’m trying changing some settings as it appears since we signed up for a Reveal account I may have some control.

As this is the first time in the history of Pocketables I’m in control of the ads, seriously, let me know what you think.

Tracking codes – There were sixty craptons of tracking code laid in here since the site switched to WordPress and was bought out by Crowdgather (or vice versa,) I believe I’ve got everything removed except the CG analytic account.

Transparency report – figured this might be fun to do, or depressing, one or the other. Coming soon, maybe. Hoping to get some stats I can trust before I put finger to keys.

Social media – I think we have control of everything except the old YouTube channel and the Google+ account. Not particularly a concern. Facebook is currently controlled by Paul (and the WordPress FB promo thing,) and Twitter is most of the editors.

The look of the site – I’ve stripped out most of the exceedingly old stuff, will start building up again soon.

Content – working on it

Question – would you rather see advertisements on the site or support the site with some monetary donation?

Pocketables does not accept targeted advertising, phony guest posts, paid reviews, etc. Help us keep this way with support on Patreon!
