No context menu after update to Firefox 56

Post by wroot »

A few days ago i was still able to block pictures by right clicking on them and selecting Adblock Plus: Block image.. After update to 56 it doesn't show up. It does sometimes shows up when i clicl on a link, say on a topic link in this forum. Though it says Block image for some reason. I have tried fresh profile. Same problem.

Did you try the last beta ABP ? (which totally different from the old ABP on FF)

(this 1 will be the standard ABP from FF 57)

I have just tried the latest beta on a new profile. It shows "Block element" menu when you right click an image. But when i press it, it shows an input window "Add filters". Not what i expect from this menu (and no matter what i input, it doesn't block the image"). Maybe it will only work correctly with 57 version of Firefox or is still rough beta.

So, current Adblock version won't be updated/fixed to work correctly with the latest stable Firefox version?

@wroot, there are still some issues with the new ABP.
And no, the old ABP is deprecated wont be updated anymore.
