Adblock filter allow a specific div?


How do you unblock a specific div using Adblock filters?

For e.g. StackOverflow .network-items is blocked by AdBlock. How can this specific div be un-blocked?


Solution

  • There are basically two ways (see adblockplus.org):

    1. Disable element hiding for the whole domain (e.g. @@||example.com^$elemhide).
    2. Create an exception filter for each filter that is being applied on that element (e.g. #@#.network-items would disable the filter ##.network-items). In Firefox you can see all active filters by choosing "Open blockable items" from the Adblock Plus icon menu.

    Generally, if you think that something shouldn't be blocked and a manual filter list update didn't help then the Adblock Plus forum is the best place to report that.
