Newbie question about the white list.

[SlimShady]

How does site-whitelisting / -blacklisting work?
..
If an whitelist filter matches this site nothing will be blocked. If an blacklist filter matches this site the whole site will be blocked.

I understand how it works, but could please add the ability to allow the whitelist feature only allow ads from that specific site or keyword.
So if I'm using Google and I whitelist Google, I want to block all ads, except those from Google.
Is that possible?

[Calain]

This would be a normal whitelist filter and not a site whitelist filter.

Just add @@google.com and @@googlesyndication.com to the normal filters. Then all Google adds should show up.

This is possible since the first version that supported whitelisting.

Ok I discovered a rough way to edit the whitelist.

put about:config in your location bar, hit enter.

On the line that says "Filter" type in adblock.

Right Click on where it says adblock:white then click modify. That should give you the horizontal list of sites you whitelisted. Add or erase at your leisure.

Hope that helps.

I doubt it helps, I haven't seen users of Adblock Plus 0.5 in this forum for quite a while. And In Adblock Plus 0.7 whitelisting filters are: a) stored in a separate file (not about:config) together with everything else, b) editable about the usual preferences window.
