False blocking script on advertisement portal

Post by Evgeny »

We are developing an advertisement portal. Adblock Plus blocks many service scripts and pages, so our site does not work properly. There is a solution: we can detect is Adblock Plus turned on and show warning with request to turn it off. But customer strongly requires properly working with active Adblock Plus. Is there way to add our site as exclusion in global filter list?

Whats an "advertisement portal" ? Using generic ad directorys as like /adimages/ or css elements like ##.advert will cause many fps. I would suggest you change them to limit the issues.

"advertisement portal" = ebay-like portal, where people publish private ads and sell own things. Yes, we have many files, paths and styles which contain "ad" (or "advert", "banner" etc.). It is not simple work to rename all these identifiers. Moreover, it does not guarantee that our site elements will not be blocked in the future by new tangled rules. Since our site is destined for ads, there is a big chance to be blocked again.

If you have the option to limit the amount obvious false positives on yourside, the less issues you'll have also, a win win for everyone.
