------------------------------------
Hi Lena,
I assigned the ticket to you. I hope this is ok. Iirc you have already been in
contact with the folks art wordpress once. SO maybe you still have a contact
and can ask them about the described issue.
Thanks and Cheers
Andy
> Take Gravity "related content" ads out of Blog
> ----------------------------------------------
>
> Key: COUCHDB-2372
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-2372
> Project: CouchDB
> Issue Type: Bug
> Security Level: public(Regular issues)
> Components: Website
> Reporter: Javier Candeira
> Assignee: Lena Reinhard
>
> The Gravity ads auto-inserted in blog.couchdb.org by wordpress.com are really
> spammy, and detract from the professionality of the project. As the content
> is not controlled by us, they may even break the code of conduct (e.g. right
> now I'm looking at "50 hottest celebs!" under the photo of a woman with
> cleavage). This is why I've classified it as a bug, not merely an improvement.
> Some options:
> a - try and break the ads with custom CSS
> b - ask wordpress.com to please turn them off, we are an non-profit project,
> etc.
> c - self-host a wordpress instance.
> I would try b first. Since it involves approaching Wordpress in the project's
> name, suggestions welcome.
