What's the priority of rules?

[Chris Hsu]

I have one custom element hiding rule as following:

Code: Select all

~www.nownews.com##.adbanner

It doesn't work after EasyList (English) add the rule:

Code: Select all

~cvvp.nva.gov.lv##.adbanner

If I disable the rule in EasyList, my rule will work fine. Does Adblock Plus process rules with priority?
How can I fix the problem without disabling rule in EasyList?

Thanks for your help.

I'm pretty sure your only solution is to ask the EasyList guys to consider modifying their rule to

Code: Select all

~nownews.com,~cvvp.nva.gov.lv##.adbanner

Chris, on which page of the domain does the filter cause problems? Previous discussion of the precedence of element rules is located at forum/viewtopic.php?t=7190.

Dear Michael,

Please visit http://www.nownews.com/newsflash/index.php?sid=14
This filter will block everything of that page.

I don't understand the language, anyway, can't you block the top banner with /ad2004/* ?

Those above aren't blocking rules, they are element hiding rules.

Or /ad2004/*$domain=nownews.com

Hey guys, thanks for your help.

I think it would be better if Adblock Plus supports merging or override rules.
