Trying to block div but it doesn't seem to be working.

Post by kilimar »

:?:

When going to

Code: Select all

https://www.shopyourway.com/app/20750/l
, I'm trying to block <div class="PromotionAd"> (the ads) and as a rule I have

Code: Select all

http://www.shopyourway.com##div.PromotionAd
I have similar rules for other pages and it's working but this particular page... doesn't seem to be working. Any suggestions? Ideally it would completely collapse the box. I can block the individual images in the ad but it leaves the box.

Thanks!

Where are those ads ? Upload a screenshot (use imgur.com , post here the link) and indicate where on page are the ads

The black diamonds are the ads. In the screen grab there four ads visible.

Weird, I get no such ads.

Try

Code: Select all

shopyourway.com##div.PromotionAd
Try also disabling all other extensions and test again

So adding that filter in, results in what I'm seeing ... still seeing ads just different ones. Very strange:

Almost like there's a back up since it can't reach the other images... super strange.

okay.... so I took out shopyourway.com and just used ##div.PromotionAd and that seems to remove the ad. Okay more digging reveals that sywxtra.com##div.PromtionalAd works. So it must load in an iframe or something.... when the main ads not visible?

It used to be so easy. You go to website.com and everything was housed on website.com, now it's a huge spider web. Looking at sources for that one page it's loading at least 12 websites and at least 2 layers deep. Sigh.
