Can't add or configure personal filters on Android

Post by spip93 »

Hello everybody,

First, excuse my english but I'm french and my english is a little rusty :) So I hope you would understand what I write and what I mean.

I have a smartphone (Asus ZenFone 2) with
- Android 5.0 (Lollipop)
- FireFox 51.0 (updated today)
- AdBlock Plus 2.8.2

I would like to add or configure personal filters, but I can't. When I go to tools > plugins (of FireFox)> AdBlock Plus 2.8.2, I can just :
- Disable (AdBlock Plus)
- Uninstall (AdBlock Plus)

On my computer, I can do it easily, but I can't do it on my smartphone.
Could you please help me and explain to me how to add personal filters ?

Thank you for your answers.
Have a nice day.

A eyeo (the company behind ABP) person said:
We don't have custom filters feature for mobile at the moment, but we hope to have it at some point in the near future.

(I am also French and your English is perfect :-) :-) )

I started a thread last week with this same problem (then only in Firefox Beta) and I can confirm that after this morning's update to Normal Firefox (51.0.2) this bug is now ported.

I was asked to create a full Bug report, but do not have an account. Would you be willing (if you have one) to escalate.
