I saw some untranslated strings in global.properties (ABP for Firefox on Crowdin) like typo_optin_message.
Could someone tell me what it is?
Thanks.

Code: Select all

//typo_optin_message
It seems that you meant ?1?. Do you want Adblock Plus to correct typos to protect you from malicious websites?
//typo_optin_yes
Yes, enable protection

When the user types in "facebook.con" this message will say: "It seems that you meant facebook.com. Do you want Adblock Plus to correct typos to protect you from malicious websites?" It's the opt-in message of the new typo correction feature that will soon land in the development builds.

This feature is now in Adblock Plus 2.1.3a.3572. But I'll try to make sure next week that we have screenshots for all the strings so that installing development builds just to have a look won't be necessary.

I just ran into this for the first time when I tried to access tfd.com, which I'm accessing frequently and which definitely is a legitimate website. It claimed that I'd tried to type ted.com, a site that I've probably never visited and that I've no knowledge about whatsoever.

Result: I just turned off the whole feature. Shouldn't there be a button to easily whitelist misdetected websites instead?

ABP 2.2.1, last updated 23/11/2012.
