Tiers Question For Ad Removal

If I have a free tier that has ads, is it acceptable to merely duplicate that post for a paid ‘ad free’ tier and remove the ads. Unsure if there is another way around duplicating the post. Am I missing something straight forward? That said if viewing the site they will also get the free ad version of the post too because being premium does not not stop free content being seen. It’s like the opposite of how Ghost works, giving more to premium, when I want to offer less? Confused.

HTML Blocks can have access tiers tied to them. So you can hide the HTML block for paid users.

Most Ad companies have code that can be done to avoid ads showing, or they dont when a user is logged in, you’d have to talk to your provider but seen it done in many ways once logged in from custom themes to just code based methods from the ad providers.

That’s what I needed. Thank you so much. Who knew. LOL. :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

That said, it’s a shame that any block cannot be hidden on tier levels … not just html.

The new CTA block also can be hidden by level.

If you want to make a block specifcally invisibile to certain tiers, you can use the Inspect function in your browser to copy a body of text you want to use for styling on an already existing post. And configure the text in that body to suit your needs.
Otherwise, as @Cathy_Sarisky stated, CTA is also a good choice and it has theme options. Correct me if I’m wrong, but you can also include a small image with it and make a header for it too. Or I could be thinking of something else. I’m at my dayjob so I don’t have access to my admin area at the moment.

Thank you Cathy & KBExit. Appreciate your input. I need to dive more into some blocks ii’ve missed. Last site was a rush jobs on the basics, but now I’m doing my own thing, i have more time. 6.0 bound to hold a few surprise also.

I do it at theme level. In the header code, I put the ad script provided by the ad service provider in this manner.

Now, the ad script that insert ads automatically after a few paragraphs is not even loaded for paid members.

Similarly, I hide the ads displayed in the sidebar.

This is done at site level.
