Block Element icon disappears.

Post by Marco »

FF Quantum 57.0.2.
ABP Development build.

I have twice been looking to block elements in Outlook.com and FB, but the icon isn't there. Just in case, I checked: If I right click on the object - element - the usual result of a right click is present.

When I came to this forum, I checked again.
It's present on my ADP screen.

Suggestions?

Thank you.

Problem here, 3.0.2, is that I can get the block element for an image to show, but it either doesn't last past a page reload, or doesn't have any effect at all. Plus, already have custom filter imported from pre-WE for specific element I'm wishing to block, but that also is ineffective.

"Add" filter does nothing.

- all fine for me, same filter is able to hide the banner (last beta firefox (58), last beta ABP version)

firefox version ? filter lists ?

- if you have other filters for that site disable them try using only easylist + the created filter
- disable all other addons, see if still happens

This one didn't work, but those I've been able to get working don't last through a page reload. Does this one persist after a page reload for you?

I already responded "all fine for me", so just follow the indications above.

Deleted then manually re-imported custom filters from 52esr. That banner is now blocked through a page reload, plus custom filters appear to be working again. Deleting all of those that came over with the move from 52esr to 57 appears to be the fix.
