  Update: My parents live in another state and have Mac computers and they can’t see the Header ads on my Home page either. Did anything change in Graphene 1.7.3 that has to do with the Header? It seems like it only works on Linux.

  Go to Graphene Options — Header Display Options and make sure you didn’t select “Enable alternate front page header widget”

  Thanks, I went in and there were 2 choices to enable an alternate front page SIDEBAR widget or FOOTER widget. This problem is in the HEADER widget though (and just for the Home page – the ads DO show up in the Header widget on all other pages). I unchecked both boxes anyway, saved and refreshed and nothing changed.

  Also you sent me a screenshot of my Home page showing me that YOU could see the ad there, so apparently it IS there but no one else I know can see it. I don’t know anyone personally who uses Linux though as you said you do.

  Can you fix this problem that seems to affect Windows and Mac computers? It seems to only work on your computer or just on Linux computers.

  PS – Sorry for the caps – I’m not yelling – I just don’t know how to underline, lol. I do appreciate all the work you do and for free, and I’ve stayed with Graphene for a long time plus recommended it to a lot of my friends because of the great support!

  LOL.. I was on mobile yesterday. So, I wasn’t sure about the alternate front page header widget. However I suggested you to check the alternate front page header widget settings. Sorry..

  View page source of your homepage. If the below AdSense code is there, something is blocking the ad on homepage. Probably the header image. So, try adding this code to Graphene Options –> Display –> Custom CSS.

  .header-widget {
  
  z-index: 60;
  
  }

  Can you see the AdSense code starting from 162nd line when you view the home page source?

  OK, I think I followed your instructions correctly, but let me know if I didn’t.

  I viewed the source and I could see the Adsense code starting on line 162 just like you could see it.

  I went into Graphene Options, Display, Custom CSS and I pasted in:

  .header-widget {

  z-index: 60;

  }

  I saved it, refreshed the screen and nothing changed. Still can’t see Adsense in header on Home page, but can see it fine on all other pages in same spot (in Header widget).

  I just realized that I may not have explained it correctly about the header widget on the Home page – it IS showing the Header widget with my uploaded header image, but in the upper left corner (which I left plain red on purpose) the Adsense ad is not showing. I’ll try to attach a screen shot from my Windows computer: This is how my Home page looks on Windows and Mac computers:

  You have explained it correctly. You can see the AdSense ad in header widget area on other pages, but not on homepage. But it is strange that I can see it on my Linux machine!

  Try increasing the .header-widget z-index value to 100 or 150.

  Try this too,

  #text-10 {
  
  position: absolute;
  
  z-index: 100;
  
  }

  I tried the 100 and the 150 – no change.

  I inserted the new code you gave me into the CSS – wasn’t sure if you meant to add it or replace the other code so I tried it 3 ways-

  New code added before old code

  New code added after old code

  Deleted old code, added new code

  Nothing made any difference.
