Zango Breakthrough (Important) Zango Stopped!
I think I may have the solution to everyones zango problem I have tested this and it seems to work for me. I need more people to test this to get a good view on its effectiveness. Zango will not make a popup on a site that already has a popup. So I found this script to add a popup to your site and stop the popup before it loads so your users don't even get a message saying popup blocked through their browser, your site will look exactly the same as it did before. so add this code to the pages that you want to protect, I have tested it for an hour on sites of mine that usaully get a zango popup and no popups have came.
Code:
<script> |
will check this out later. thanks :thumbsup
|
I can't be 100% on this so if people could help test it this would be great but the results are looking good from my sites
|
Looks pretty decent, I'll give it a spin later.
|
Come on people need somemore testers
|
bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbump
|
I dont have zango installed, but here's a bump.
|
bumping!
|
Thinking out of the box :thumbsup :thumbsup
I'm gonna check this out btw looks like zango has increased the size of their pop window... I just got basically a full screen one :Oh crap |
remember to post the results OzMan
|
Bump for Smokey to take a look at this
|
Thats a great idea , ill try it out.. i never even thought about that , they must do that so they dont get a circle jerk happen
|
So far on the one site I tested it on it looks
pretty fucking good to me :GFYBand loaded about 30 times and no Zango popup shoulda got one by now. Loading the join page link in a frame will solve a popup on the join page too I guess although there are a few sponsors who don't like that. fingers crossed on this one :) |
also guys check out my anti-zango site www.zangoed.com if you got some good info on zango post it on gfy and I'll try my hardest to get it up to this site (its a spare time non profit site)
|
Is it working for you smokey?
|
bumping this thread up, interested in seeing if it worked
|
back to the top!
|
Bump again still works fine for me
|
this thread is worth the bump.
|
Great idea
|
brilliant...thanks
|
more zango drama.
|
|
bump for more results
|
bump for the anti zango movement
|
bumpity.
|
bump....
|
This board is pathetic. A thread like this which seems to offer an immediate very simple solution to Zango popups has to get continually bumped to avoid dropping out of sight.
Baddog, should at least get in here with one of his many "This doesn't concern me at all but I heard that if you wear purple socks you won't get popups?" type enlightening posts to keep this thread going until more people that actually care see it. |
I did ewxpect this thread to be slightly busyer but I think a lot of people prefer bitching about zango than actually helping with the solution
|
Ozman, at least proof that it is worth something... people bump because they know it is worth it!
|
I do have to say this too: I never thought that a popup would be a solution the the issue of popups.
|
well if zango is looking at a pages source searching if theres already a popup why not just a timed popup, set the timer at something retarded like 3 days.. a lot less lines of code to run around adding.

Maybe there are only a handful of people that have actually installed Zango on here and actually own sites out of the many posters. Well yeah that would be consistent with the 1% penetration figures lol :error |
yes no one see's the popup with this script it does not actually popup up the script is a popup blocker that sends out a popup but gets blocked users on the site would never see the popup and their software popup blocker does not detect it either as it never pops up. (I know this sounds complicated but it seems to work)

|
Bump for the cause, we need more results:2 cents:

A popup that doesn't popup or delay the site load or kill the server but does kill the zango popup. brilliant! http://images.usatoday.com/money/_ph...1-guinness.jpg |
I wish zango used invisible popups that never poped up
|
why isnt will748352 in here?? he should be all over this

If everything looks fine, you have a solution. For now. Until zango reads this and finds a way around it. If your cookie still gets overwritten, then it's back to the drawing board. Missie |

Still, check your cookies. Just because the ad doesn't pop, it doesn't mean it does no damage to your income. The only way to know for sure is to check cookies.
The fact that the ad doesn't pop up means NOTHING with zango. I don't know how the backend works for zango advetisers or how "ethical" zango is in its own sick ways, but even if the ad doesn't get shown because of another popup doesn't mean the advertiser doesn't get charged for the "click" or impression, or that the cookie didn't get overwritten anyway. I don't mean to be negative about your solution, hell the more solutions people can come up with the better as far as I'm concerned. The more you give these scums to work around... I just don't want anyone to think the problem is solved when the truth could be that the problem just became invisible due to no popup ads. Missie |
Kill the zango

Of course if this is effective Zango will be hard at work on a fix. However if this lasts a week or three months it will be a positive thing and should encourage others to develop even better solutions along these lines that are harder to get around and don't involve blocking surfers or making them jump thru' hoops. :thumbsup |

Killing ZANGO slowly but surely.
