Non-advertisement being filtered?

Post by seantubedepot »

Hey guys,

I work at TubeDepot, and we've noticed a problem with our site when using Adblock. The featured content slider, seen at tubedepot.com, no longer shows for users who use adblock. The slider is a pretty big part of the main page, and contains (all internal) links to useful parts of the website that might otherwise be difficult to find. Does anybody know what might be causing adblock to block this content? Is there anything I can change to make it acceptable? I thought it might be a keyword in one of the IDs or something, but my search through the code and through the easylist is turning up fruitless. Maybe someone more versed in Adblock can help?

Thanks.

it's due to this filter

Code: Select all

###leads
so, you can simply rename this div to something not matching other filters in easylist

anyway, to see if (and what) something is blocked, use firefox, click ABP icon, open blockable items list and you'll see in red the blocked / hidden elements (and the triggered filters)
