Not all ads on YouTube are being blocked.

Post by fishnet37222 »

Hello,

I just noticed that not all ads are being blocked on YouTube. I've included the link to the report I filed below.

if you get those ads on the browser's start it's normal (the page is loaded before the addon initialization)
I tested in chrome and firefox and I can't reproduce the same behaviour

I still get those ads by selecting YouTube from the Firefox search box and typing "star wars the force awakens trailer". The first two videos listed have the "AD" badge on them. If there's a way to hide an element only if it has a descendant element with a class of "yt-badge-ad", I'll consider this matter resolved.

I tried again, no ads ...
What is written on the row "AD" appears ? ad by ... ?

Can you post an image ? (use imgur.com for uploading then post the link)
Try also disabling all other addons, keep only ABP

I attached a screen-shot to the report I submitted earlier, but here's another screenshot I just took. I drew a rectangle around the two ads. I tried in Chrome, and the ads don't show.

well, right click on the page, "save as", save a html page + the corrispondent folder. Zip them together and upload the zip file to some server (dropbox, g drive, other ...)
Then pm me the link or post it here.
