Facebook login prompt

Post by cmmc »

Sometimes when I accidentally click somewhere on a facebook page (not sure exactly what triggers it), a login prompt pops up that can't be closed, except by refreshing the page. Anyway to avoid this?
I've tried to hide it with ehh, but it just shows up again next time, with a different, incremental name (facebook.com###dialog_0, facebook.com###dialog_1, etc.).

Hi, thanks for the reply.
I have the self-destructing cookies addon so cookies and cache are frequently cleared, but re. your linked thread, as I mentioned above, if you filter facebook.com###dialog_0, next time the element code will be facebook.com###dialog_1, and if you add this as well, next it will change to facebook.com###dialog_2, etc...
I suspect same happens with facebook.com##._5ctm/facebook.com##._3ixn, since I already had facebook.com##._1yu and
facebook.com##._4s7c filtered with no hits (meaning it's a randomly generated name), but will give a try to the filters suggested and report back as needed.

edit: ok, so I had

Code: Select all

facebook.com##._1yu
facebook.com##._4s7c
facebook.com##.generic_dialog_modal
facebook.com##[id*="dialog_*"]
facebook.com##.timelineLoggedOutSignUp
facebook.com###timelineSignUpDialog
all with 0 hits, plus

Code: Select all

facebook.com###pagelet_growth_expanding_cta
with 10 hits.
Now

Code: Select all

facebook.com##._3ixn
has 5 hits and

Code: Select all

facebook.com##.timelineLoggedOutSignUp
has 8 hits, while the other filters haven't changed, so I guess those are obsolete and for the while these are the filters to use.

I have found out that the following rule works against the latest installment of this login nag-screen :

Code: Select all

facebook.com##DIV[id^="pagelet_growth_expanding_cta"]
