I've tried the default appearance and the "Game magazine" demo and I'm having the same problem in both: A long vertical ad appears on top of the logo, causing the header to be taller and hide the rest of the site.

Is there a way to make it a horizontal ad at the top of the screen, ot move it to the empty column to the left?

It still seems to happen after copying and pasting the "Home shortcodes" for the demo, although now the ad seems to be hidden, which is penalized by Google Adsense.

Example: http://www.retrolel.com/en/home/

This also causes the "mega menu" to appear detached from its menu, down below.

Example: http://www.retrolel.com/en/

It seems to be the only misplaced ad banner, by the way.

I had reverted it to the previous theme to avoid visitors getting annoyed. It has PenNews active now.

This is http://www.retrolel.com/en/ right now:

I'm switching back to the old theme since I can't leave the site like that.

Please reactivate it with the admin privileges once you're looking into it, or let me know when you will and I'll reactivate it for you.

I want to use the "latest entries" view while I work on the static page and this is what appears, which seems to be a bug.

It's also happening in other templates (I'm attaching a picture of "Game News"), so it seems to be a global bug in PenNews.

We need banner ads to be displayed in the header, please fix it.

It not only happens with the default "latest posts" home page, but also when you apply the "home shortcodes" included with the theme, to the home page.

Removing the ad banner from the header is not an option, it's a required element.

Then no ads will be shown where they are now, won't they?

I just found out that you added this to the CSS to hide the ad:

.site-header .google-auto-placed { display: none !important; }

Won't Adsense penalize my account for that?
