Duplicate IDs for div. Follow these steps to fix it

Device detection codes are possibly missing from the publisher’s source code (if on-page) or not properly set in the configuration device drop-down (if off-page). As a result, more than one div is detected in a single page load.

ON-page:

Step 1: On your webpage, right-click ‘view page source’.

Step 2: Use CTRL+F and search for “defineslot” to locate the DFP header tags.

Step 3: If the publisher is using a separate set of ads on mobile vs desktop, check that the device detection codes are set to properly load the ads based on the device:

Step 4: Search the div ID’s. You should only see each body tag or div deployed once.

Step 5: Using a mobile emulator, refresh the page to load mobile.

Step 6: View page source again and hunt down the duplicate ID.

Step 7: Advise the publisher to remove the duplicate div ID.

OFF-page:

Step 1: Open the configuration.

Step 2: Check the“Slot” field to find any unnecessary duplicates.

Step 3: If an ad unit is added twice (i.e. responsive setup), ensure each ad unit defined in the configuration has the right device set (desktop/mobile).

Step 4: Open the publisher site, and on your webpage, right-click ‘view page source’.

Step 5: Search the div ID’s. You should only see each body tag or div deployed once.

Step 6: If you see any duplicates, have the publisher remove them.
