Adsense stopped displaying on main page

This is really confusing to me. My adsense stopped displaying on one page of one blog today. It is just showing yellow boxes.

The confusing part is every other page I go to, including 'previous page' (which uses the index page as it's template) shows the ads, yet the front page doesn't.

I can understand if I made a post that broke the ads somehow, but the latest post I made works just fine on it's own page, as does every other post that's currently being displayed on the main page.

I don't know what else to troubleshoot with this matter. Should I just wait? Has this ever happened to anyone? Thanks!

    Clear your browser history/cache, then check the Adsense page again.

    Hmm I wonder why it's not showing here, perhaps some weird issue and it'll resolve over time.

    And yea, now that I look at the title lol.. I need to do some seo to that site but that's for a different section I suppose

    Simple. The site has been disabled from displaying adsense.
    Maybe. Could be they just started with the main index page.

    Now some people will go overboard on this issue, but
    individual page disables happen a lot. It does not mean
    you are banned, nor the rest of your sites. Take it as
    a warning, however, and clean up all of your sites if
    they are displaying adsense.

    Many times this happens via a bot and does it automatically.

    The site is not family-friendly, which BTW is an adsense TOS.
    You might think anyone, any age in YOUR family would be just
    fine, but not google. If you did not know that, now you do.

    Big sites, big forums, that have special adsense relationships
    can readily do this, but not us, the general public.

    Having said that, yes, it may be a glitch. Either from google, or
    your server. But what ads do you propose the adsense bot
    is going to put on there?

    Hope it is a glitch, but I'd get adsense off there ASAP. There are
    a lot of people here who like to report sites to google.

    I don't. I don't care. I do care about WF members losing their
    adsense. It should not happen to anyone here.

    You might want to modify your posts, no website.

    Hmm, did you see anything on the page/site that could have triggered the warning? I know on some of my 'pages' I accidentally had 4 ads displaying, could that have triggered it? If so, why would it not trigger it on those pages, but on my main page instead?

      Putting 4 ads is a common mistake. Just 3 will show, no big deal.

      I would remove the adsense altogether.

      The glitch may just be an inadvertent code change or server issue.
      Could even be having a space where one should not be.

      Delete the ads and place one block manually, if you are using
      some sort of plugin or something. See if the adsense shows.

    Replaced all my ads, no luck.

    The strange thing is, I run the site offline, and it works. Granted I am not pulling from the live database.

    However, when I check the live site, I am still only having issues with the main page. Did anyone else check and can only see yellow banners?

    So my ads came back later that night, but they're doing the same thing again today. Can anyone check my site to confirm the ads are yellow on the main page? Welcome To Teen Mom Junkies Thanks!

    No ad on the first page, but yellow banner length space showing on other pages.

    I rebooted my server, restarted my DNS and http server. Removed all the ads, put them back up one by one. Deactivated any newer plugin, but still nothing. Going to give it a few but this is baffling. Any way to contact adsense? I searched but couldn't find a contact link

    Note, the top ad is now showing contextweb ads (with adsense backing it up) but I'm keeping the sidebar adsense for now, so if those are yellow that's still an issue. Starting to really hate google

    I noticed I had a few crawl errors in adsense. I created a robots.txt file and added just this to it:

    User-agent: *
    Allow: /

    Hopefully the next crawl will put things back to normal. We'll see
