We are having issues when viewing site in Google Chrome with the responsive banner ads we have in es-dashboard-sidebar-xxx positions.

The banner placed is to big as it does not seem to recognize the available max width. See attached screenshots of Chrome and Safari. Firefox is fine as well.

Can you assist with this?
I seem to be able to reproduce this but there is already a width assigned on the sidebar, see my screen shot here http://screencast.com/t/MzdFgFFD

Perhaps you could try to add the block of css codes below, not sure if this helps but this would enforce it even further:



.es-dashboard .es-sidebar > .es-widget {

    max-width: 220px !important; 

}

The ads seems to appear correctly as you can see from my screen shot here, http://screencast.com/t/VyrAhnbTE . Am I missing anything here?

Mark, you Chrome browser, clear Cache and reload page. Try a few times as sometimes it is fine, but mostly not. See attached:

Shouldn't you be configuring this in your adwords settings to only display ads that are vertical? Even if you add a max width on the sidebar, it still doesn't really serve any purpose at all when half the ad is hidden?

Nope, as it is responsive banner. (desktop and mobile) This is also why you see it working sometimes as it automatically adjusts to the size of the space available in that position. So if you restrict the width it should also automatically resize to fit that available space.

It always used to be fine, but for some reason stopped working 100% as it should.

Mark, just some more info. It is the exact same Google Adsense code on all our banner positions in all modules. You will see if you look at other pages on the site they are perfectly fine, except for the ES page. Try our Blog page for example.
