Forum Business Banishing the Stronger today banner

[lais817]

Am I alone in always having the "Stronger Today" banner pop up EVERY TIME I access a new page on StrongFirst.com? It absolutely does my head in - is there a way this can be turned off and only come up for first time browsers, like a cookie of some kind?

 

[Anna C]

Hmm, mine doesn't do that. Don't know why though.

 

[watchnerd]

I don't see it.

Maybe you need to get stronger?

How much do you bench? It disappears after a bodyweight benchpress.

Dunno, maybe they just run an AB testing or sth

I blame Pavel, I haven't touched a bench press since I found Strongfirst!

Same here, good thing is my military press is almost as good as my bench
Sad part is... my bench is not very good

Happens to me every time I access an article that I haven't opened before.

@Steve Freides is this your domain or not really?

I'm afraid I don't understand the question.

Use brave browser or safari and turn on reader mode for Strongfirst articles.
No more popups.

Ah, you're asking about the popup with the newsletter signup option - I get that, too.

If you'd like to comment on specific behaviors of the website as regards this, please be specific about what you're seeing and about what you think might work better another way, and I'll pass it along.

Thanks Steve, fair call. It seems like each and every time I access an article on the website via my phone / Chrome, I have the "Stronger Today" banner pop-up come up, which takes 5 or so seconds to be able to clear each time.

It's incredibly frustrating if I'm reading a bunch of different articles all in one go.

I don't clear my browser cache or cookies or anything, and I am subscribed to the newsletter.

I'm not tech savvy enough to do much else, and I'd rather not have to swap to a different browser as suggested above to fix the issue - Google Chrome is at least in the top 3 for most used browsers surely.

Cheers

I don't get the pop-ups either, but I get to the forum via bookmarks.
