"Blocking is Stealing"

Post by Something »

The Google "Blocking is Stealing" add slows my computer down more than the adds did. How can I get rid of it?

The fanboy filter does the job

Code: Select all

gpxplus.net##[title="Click here to learn how to disable AdBlock on GPXPlus only"]
The EasyList filter is creating the grey space

Code: Select all

gpxplus.net##div[style*="min-height: 90px; width: 730px;"]



...

I wish there was an easier way in ADP preferences to determine to which list a given filter belongs other than right-click, edit subscription, subscription editor to see list name

Just let your cursor on the filter until a tooltip appears. :wink:

Tooltip only shows in "open blockable items" and NOT "preferences"

ADP 1.1.3

I have often thought this would be useful, perhaps the tooltips (or a striped down version) should display in the preferences window too.

When I disable a filter from Open Blockable Items, CTRL+Shift+V, I use preferences to find and reactivate it; Sometimes searching reveals similar features and it helps maintain sanity to know the origin.

While I'm wishing.. would it be possible to have another toggle state for previously disabled features? perhaps restricted to an Open Blockable Items "session"?
