AdBlock for Firefox by AdBlock
Review by Firefox user 13602447
Rated 2 out of 5
by Firefox user 13602447, 6 жилийн өмнөThis is a really poor app. A lot of the on screen prompt instructions are very technical and I have no idea what they mean. And perhaps the most idiotic: There a feature to 'block a particular ad on a site'. I've used it and it works pretty well. But it's only a visible option when the page or site is already blocked. So why block an ad when all ads on the page or site are already blocked? Makes no sense.
So, to carry that further, I'm thinking I'll unblock the site but selectively block ads on the site. But once I unblock the site or page, the option to block a specific ad is no longer available.
Very poorly designed, poorly thought-out app. I'll try some others. They may be just as convoluted, but I'll try.

posted 6 жилийн өмнөHi, and thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts with us! We have a feature called "Block an ad on this page." It's available at all times when AdBlock is running, whether or not any ads on the page are being blocked or there are any ads at all. It can be used to hide things other than ads. Obviously, it can't be available when the extension is paused or the page or site is whitelisted, because AdBlock isn't running then.
However, you can also use AdBlock to exclude specific filters to see ads that have been blocked or hidden. That would allow you to selectively block ads on the page. We have more information here:

You're absolutely right about the on-screen help text being less than helpful. That's one of the things we're planning to improve in an upcoming release.
You're always welcome to open a ticket on our support site, https://help.getadblock.com, for help with how to use AdBlock. We want to make it as useful for you as possible. :)

- Rated 1 out of 5by Jet-Net, 20 өдрийн өмнөРаботает некорректно. Вместо блокировки указанного элемента блокирует ВСЕ содержимое страницы. Пропускает кучу рекламы. После блокировки всплывает навязчивое окно с предложением купить премиум. Кнопка "Не показывать снова" только для вида, все-равно показывает это раздражающее окно. Удаляю этот плагин и впредь буду пользоваться другими блокировщиками рекламы - вы зажрались, ребята. Не рекомендую устанавливать этот плагин.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Blue, 24 өдрийн өмнөI've uninstalled this extension, as it's way too obtrusive and unneccesary to be notified with a new browser window EVERYTIME the extension is updated. Ridiculous.
