20% Text..... Ripping hair out

Hey guys,

Any of you getting an issue where your image is way under 20% but still being pulled for 20%? Mine are 10% well within the lines and getting pulled every time. Now if I challenge the decision they will apologise and turn back on the ad but it is a right pain as they take 24+ hrs.

Id the 20% rule an automated process where a bot detects it or is it manual? If it's auto then i'm assuming the bot is thinking something is text when its not.


Grrrrrr FB!

Hey,

you might want to check the grid tool: https://www.facebook.com/ads/tools/text_overlay

If a text lays in two different height-squares it counts as 2.0 height units, not 1.x

Steve, thanks for that but I wouldn't know if I was under 10% if I didn't use it mate Trust me I use it haha. I'm well within and like I said they apologise when I query why which leads me to think it's automated?

Yeah getting quite a bit of it as well - random retro's and only of certain ads nestled in others that have the same level of text. They also blanket ban the image - disapproves across all campaigns.

I found out what my issue was which was stupid!

I had a dashed border!! Bot picking it up as text. They need to sort things out the muppets.

Zeno - Yeah same here, i'm getting alot of retro but i'll get 2 out od the 3 retro and the last ad (same image) will go on forever, the most complicated platform for working out why things are happening I swear! I've pulled my hair out for 3 years i think haha
