Check Accelerated Mobile Pages compatibility

If your entire site is built on Accelerated Mobile Pages (AMP), you should not use Reader Revenue Manager.

• If you use Newspack, you can configure AMP.
• By default, AMP blocks the “Reader Revenue Manager” code snippets since it isn’t valid AMP.
• You can add the “Reader Revenue Manager” code snippet to your canonical pages and disable AMP if:
  • You have both AMP and non-AMP pages.

Use Allow-List to your code snippet within AMP

1. On {site or location}, open an article with a broken pop-up in edit mode.
2. To trigger an AMP error, click Revalidate.
3. To show the article URL, in the AMP plugin, open validated URLs you want to use.
4. To see a list of what AMP kept or removed, click Details.
5. Select “code snippets” lines you want to allow.
6. From the drop-down, change the value from “Removed” to “Kept.”
7. Click Save.

Note: On the page that results in an invalid AMP page, you keep a custom javascript code.

Turn off Accelerated Mobile Pages
