# Overlapping Ads?

 * Hey there!
 * I’ve created about a dozen plain image ads placed 5 to 10 paragraphs apart from
   each other (1st ad – after p10, 2nd ad – after p20, etc).
 * In addition to those ads, I’ve placed a few rich content ads before H2 and H3
   headlines throughout my content.
 * A problem I’ve been facing for a while now is that sometimes, plain image ads
   appear within the paragraphs of my rich content ads.
 * Is there any way to prevent my plain image ads from appearing within the paragraphs
   of my rich content ads?
 * All the best,
 * Harry

 * Hi Harry,
 * thanks for reaching out.
 * You can prevent automatic ad injection into specific elements by adding the `.
   advads-stop-injection` class.
 * You can also add your own elements with the custom code explained [here](https://wpadvancedads.com/manual/prevent-automatic-injection-into-specific-elements/).
 * Please let me know if you need anything else.
 * Best regards,
    Henning

 * Hello Henning, this worked like a charm.
 * However, I was wondering if there’s any way to make ads skip the elements marked
   with the .advads-stop-injection class instead of disabling them altogether.
 * Thanks a ton for your help and attention!
 * All the best,
 * Harry

 * Hi Harry,
 * Thanks for the reply.
 * Do I understand correctly that adding `.advads-stop-injection` to [an ad unit](https://wpadvancedads.com/manual/optimizing-the-ad-layout/#Container_Classes)
   disables the content injection for the entire post/page?
 * I also notice that it might help to uncheck the option “[Disable level limitation](https://wpadvancedads.com/manual/post-ad-injection-placement/#Content_Injection_Options)“.
   This effects in removing ads from being injected in in your content ads as well.
 * Best regards,
    Henning

 * Hi Henning, the Disable Level Limitation was unchecked all along.
 * Let me give you an example of what I’m talking about…
 * Ad 1 – Rich Content Ad
    Ad 2 – Image Ad
 * Ad 2 appeared inside Ad 1.
 * I added the .advads-stop-injection class to the container of Ad 1 and now Ad 
   2 doesn’t appear inside Ad 1.
 * However, Ad 2 stopped being served on the page altogether.
 * What I’m asking is if there’s any way to serve Ad 2 somewhere else on the page,
   maybe a few paragraphs below Ad 1, instead of completely disabling it.
 * All the best,
 * Harry

 * Hi Harry,
 * Thanks for the reply.
 * I was unable to reproduce the reported behavior on my test page. Using the settings
   we talked about above, it seems to work as intended.
 * I also checked back your website and assume the issue is about “ad 1” filled 
   with the ezoic ad id 663.
 * As you can see on [the screenshot](https://i.imgur.com/eWpK3J1.png) the ad placeholder
   is injected, bud does not extend.
 * Can you please check if this ad placeholder is working without Advanced Ads and
   also if the behavior is the same if you try one of your other, working ad placeholders
   on this ad 1 placement?
 * Best regards,
    Henning

 * Hi Henning, everything seems to be working as it should right now.
 * Thanks a lot for helping me tackle my issue. I truly appreciate it!
 * All the best and stay safe,
 * Harry
