Hello there. I’ve been trying to post an advertisement on my group (Fryin’ Pan Studіos) and it isn’t working. I get an error (The upload request was blocked. Try disabling any adblockers you have enabled.) I’ve seen posts about this error before, However none of those posts’ solutions have worked for me. I’ve switched browsers, disabled vpns, and disabled ad blockers and none of them worked. I’ve tried Opera and Chrome, (Opera VPNS and Adblockers). And I’ve also disabled all extensions.
It’s hard to tell what the problem is without much detail. Can you open up your browser console once the page is loaded in, switch to the “Network” tab and then click the “Upload” button.
I’m using Opera. The status type says “CORS error”. I click the link it gives me and the JSON table says “MethodNotAllowed”. Maybe this is somehow related? I’m not too sure. The response tab says “No data found for resource with given identifier”
CORS is a policy that stops websites from using others’ resources. All modern browsers enact it. Only resources that are allowed be used will not be blocked. This would normally be a problem on Roblox’s end but no one else has reported any problems so I assume it has something to do with your browser/extensions. Cross-origin errors should always be logged to the console so can you switch over to the “console” tab at the top and try uploading again? You might see something like this:
Yeah then I don’t know what the problem is. It sounds like it should be Roblox’s fault (a missing header) but I think it’s just because your browser is doing something weird. Try switching to a whole other fresh browser, like Firefox or Safari and it should work. Otherwise, you should be able to temporairly bypass cross-origin restrictions with an extension like this one - just make sure to uninstall it after you’ve uploaded the ad.
When I tried uploading an ad for myself, I got the same error but it never mentioned CORS anywhere. I checked and it was just because ads.roblox.com was blocked by Ublock origin. Are you sure you’ve disabled all your ad blockers?
