Description
I have worked for some time with this module without problems, but by updating to the new version I experience nothing but problems.
1. Apparently I have to select the 'Ads old' to make these old ads visible (how one gets the new ads is unclear, I suppose that is for people who have never used AdSense before?).
2. When I try to change the colors with the module I get the message that 'the color must be between' etc.. Well of course it is, but the colors stay black background and grey letters.
3. I read somewhere that I should create 'new slots' for this, but that is not an AdSense term. Should I create a new account or how can I otherwise get the colors I want?.
Many thanks

1. If you're upgrading from an old version, yes you have to use the old ads. The new ads are for anyone who tries to create any new ads in Google.
2. Ad colors are defined in a group. Make sure that you then assign ads to that group.
3. Slot may not be a 'user-land' AdSense term, but if you look at the AdSense code it's there. Switching to the new ad format is so complex that I am not going to recommend anything.

No further info in more than two weeks. Closing the issue.
