 * Hello,
    thanks for the plugin, it helped with multiple queries on my homepage.
   I’ve noticed, that when activated, Advanced Ads doesn’t let you select any ads
   in your ad placements. Can your function be adjusted, so other plugins which 
   are trying to inject into content won’t collide?
 * thanks
    Viktor

 * Hello Thomas,
 * thanks for picking this up.
    What’s happening is, that when Avoid Duplicate Posts
   is turned on on a customized TwentySeventeen theme, in Advanced Ads you cannot
   select ads when viewing their Locations. The dropdowns just show groups (if they
   exist), but no ads. If I turn off Avoid DP, then it’s back to normal.
 * thanks

 * Hi Viktor,
 * thanks for your reply.
 * Could you please try Advanced Ads 1.10.4 which I just released? I fixed a conflict
   caused by a theme there that sounds similar to yours. If that doesn’t help then
   I fear that Avoid Duplicate Posts needs to jump in. I have seen similar issues
   when the query was manipulated by a plugin and that was not limited to specific
   pages. I am just guessing here, but it might help to limit their changes to post
   lists only and not apply it to all post types.
 * S pozdravom,
    Thomas

 * Hi Thomas,
 * I’ve updated your plugin (note that I’m on Pro with your plugin), activated ADP
   and the problem is persistent. On the other had, this is clearly a problem with
   ADP, as out of the box, it was breaking my site. When I’ve removed the limit 
   to work only on some sections, then it works.
    Something similar was described
   in this support topic [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/doesnt-work-at-all-102/](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/doesnt-work-at-all-102/)
 * Anyway, I’ll play around with it and might get it to work. If you say, that one
   has to limit the query manipulation to certain pages, then maybe that’s the way
   to go (I only need ADP on home and category archives).
 * All in all this is an issue od ADP, not AdvAds, but really appreciate your effort.
   Keep up the good work.
 * thanks
    Viktor

 * Hello all,
 * not sure what it was, but when I’ve moved the plugin code directly to the theme
   functions.php and changed is_home to is_front_page, it started to work.
 * thanks
