ABP, Chrome, Ubuntu

Post by kamyogi »

Hi,
I've been using ABP for Chrome in Ubuntu 12.04 for a long time. It worked fine.
For some reasons, I refreshed Chrome. With that, ABP was removed from the browser with other add-ons.
I am trying to re-install ABP from its site (adblockplus.org), but the 'Agree and Install for Chrome' green button has no effect. Also, it shows 'not compatible' while installing through Chrome Web Store (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/deta ... cddilifddb). I think its due to my old browser version (48.0.2564.116).
I can't change Chrome version because it is no longer supported by Ubuntu.
I still want to keep the same Chrome version and run ABP on it as before.
Is there a way to do so? I don't mind if its an old version of ABP. I even don't know which ABP version is good for me.
Thanks for your help.
Kam :)

you should ask on ABP irc channel where you can download an olld version for your chrome (I guess you need ABP 1.12.4)

Thanks mapx for your reply. You may be right.
Can anyone say for sure which version of ABP do I need and where to get it from?
Thanks.

1.13

Code: Select all

https://hg.adblockplus.org/adblockpluschrome/file/efc8095530a2/metadata.chrome
[compat]
chrome = 49.0
1.12.4

Code: Select all

https://hg.adblockplus.org/adblockpluschrome/file/bf02d461c499/metadata.chrome
[compat]
chrome = 41.0
So, since 1.13 your chrome is not compatible anymore

adblockchrome repository

I told you: contact some developer on their irc channel (see link above to know how to access it)
