Block element doesn't work acceptable ad domains

Post by fillingout »

I'm using Chrome 77.0.3865.75 64-bit and ABP 3.6.3.

There is an add on this page to the left of the reviews:
https://www.amazon.com/LOHAS-Outdoor-Eq ... merReviews

I want to block just that ad. Element hiding helper does not work on the amazon page unless I disable allow acceptable ads.
If I disable allowing non-intrusive ads the element hiding helper works again.

I have mostly no objection to amazon ads but there are a few objectionable ones I've seen and I'd like to be able to block them, while still allowing other "acceptable" ads through. In this case the ad I wanted to block was an animated video that was annoying, but today it's gone and replaced by a picture of baby stuff.

Hi,

That's quite an unusual behavior! You should be able to use the "Block Element" feature even with Acceptable Ads enabled. Should you see this ad again, please take a screenshot and send to us. Also, send us a screenshot of your ABP filters and custom filters so we can take a look at your settings.

Thanks
