Yahoo Image Seach Blocking Filter?

Post by Zer0-X11 »

Hello! I have been using adblock plus for a very long time. And the past 2 or 3 years since the new patches for adblock plus. I have noticed a few changes that I miss.

1: The power to right click images in yahoo search and block them automatically. Why was this feature removed?

2: Is blocking images in yahoo image search still accessible? Because I am starting to realize that I can not do it. When I type in a word for searching an image.. I get unwanted images in my search.. that are not good for any kid to see. I have been for awhile trying to find out how to block that junk but I found out If I block one.. I block a whole bunch of others I didn't want to block. Now why is this? Why can't I block individual images like I was able to along time ago?

bump!

Anyway to block yahoo / google search images individually? Instead of globally?

Why was this feature removed? I know I could block them individually a long time ago before future patches.

By default, Adblock Plus will suggest blocking the entire directory - this is usually a good choice when dealing with ads. If you want to block the individual image you can always choose "Custom" and block that particular address only.

I'm not sure what your first question is about - is "Block image" not visible in the context menu for Yahoo images? Then these images are most likely whitelisted, you need to remove or disable the exception rule first.
