After the main text capsule, there appears some ebay links which I never added - like 'dog food' and 'my account', how do you get rid of them?
(I can see 'dog food' being somehow related to the ebay rover link, so maybe it's caused by inserting the ebay affiliate link.)
i have no clue, but i have them on mine, even hubs that aren't dog related. I'd like them to go away as well...
Those ads are placed automatically - sometimes.
We've been talking to eBay about this and hope that they can improve it soon.
That's good news, Paul. We've already had a long thread on this and it is irritating a lot of people, spoiling the aesthetic appeal of a good design.
I also have similar problem. These ads spoil the whole layout of the hubs and make it unsighty. Further, this ad has no relevance to any of my hubs.
I was just curious as to whether or not anything has come of removing the ebay adds from our hubs?

If an author puts an unrelated link on their page they get...

Someone recently stated that there are limits to how much you can link to your own hubs. Does anybody know the limitations?

All of my incoming links in the stats section are now showing only one incoming link. Previously, some showed 5 links. Has anyone else noticed a loss of links?~Jen

I noticed that hubs in niche sites no longer include the "More by this author" section below the hub. Is this just an oversight or was it a decision to drop it on niche sites?
