Not blocking Facebook Ads

Post by Overdose »

Each time I open Opera, it does not block Facebook ads. It's quite annoying to update the list each time you open the browser, as it seems to be fixing this issue. What could be the problem? I really like Opera's speed and would like to keep it as my main browser.

the start page is loading before the intialization of the extension (ABP)

so, change your start page (put for example a search engine) and then open FB from the bookmarks bar

Ehm, my start page was already set to Google.

The filter lists are not disappearing, the extension doesn't block only the Facebook ads. Yesterday it worked after I updated them, now it's back again. I've updated once more, yet they still appear.

Opera 22.0
Adblock Plus Version 1.8.3

strange... did you check your custom filters if you have by chance some wrong FB filter ?
easylist list is downloaded / updated without failures ?

what ads are you seeing on FB ? you could upload a screenshot (use imgur.com, post here the link)

try disabling the other extensions and re-test

also, while on FB, press ctrl-shift-J (go into console) and post here what you see there
