From Adblock to Adblock Plus

Post by user »

Currently, I'm using Adblock. I want to switch to Plus, but I want to know: I can import my block list from Adblock to Plus?
I don't want to manually reblock everything..
I don't think this was addressed anywhere..

Thanks!

Just EXPORT your old list from Adblock and IMPORT it into Adblock Plus. You own list will always stay separate in ABP even if you add subscriptions.

You don't need to manually export and import it. Adblock Plus will automatically import it. If you, for some strange reason, decide to go back to Adblock, your old filters will still be there.

I did not know that, Peng. :(

@rick: But now you know. Switching from Adblock really is as simple as installing Adblock Plus :)
