Limited Undo for new filters

[IAmBroom]

Adblock should really, really, really have Undo for filters. It's tedious to go open Options, Custom Filters, and search through for the new filter additions - and FSM help you if you already had some filters for that site, and didn't pay careful attention. Even one level of Undo would be good; three would be enough for about anyone's blunder.

Otherwise, tagging each filter with the creation date would be the next-best solution - and ironically, probably harder.

Please?

probably you are talking about ABP for firefox

go into custom filters window
right click (in the right panel) the menu (where is "Filter rule", "Hits" ...), enable "Last hit" ==> you'll see the last date, you can sort for that attribute

Actually, I use both FF and Chrome, but generally I use Chrome. Does this feature exist there?

I notice that Chrome is missing other features, like keycode combinations for blocking an element, so it might not.

no, only in FF

Does anyone know why the FF version is so much superior to the Chrome one? More options, the ability to sort by date created, keyboard shortcuts...

ABP for firefox has more years of development.

The devs are working on some new gui
https://issues.adblockplus.org/ticket/2372
https://issues.adblockplus.org/ticket/2746

and so on (see related issues)

There is also a patch under review to have something similar to blockable items list from firefox
