- Rated 2 out of 5by Mark Craig, 7 years agoWithout the flexibility of Element Hiding Helper, this extension is DEAD TO ME. The functionality that tries to replace EHH in the latest AdBlockPlus is apparently no longer based on Aardvark, lacks the utility of the earlier versions that were, and is utterly UNUSABLE... even after I figured out that some old syntax was no longer recognized and caused ALL the custom filters to be ignored until I removed the offending rules, which had to be done in a separate text editor because the error dialog made LINE references that were not duplicated in the built-in textarea editor.
The world is soon to gain another Luddite, because I won't want to set foot in the Corporate Web without sufficient tools to combat it. Adblock Plus alone is a toy for idiots that, much like the Corporate Web itself, leaves all the crucial decisions in the hands of someone other than me. - Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 13417130, 7 years agoSucks since the update for web extensions.
Many options i have come to rely on are now missing.
Very disappointed.
Edit: Added a start because it was possible to downgrade again.
Thoughtful, since i plan to stay with 56 until Mozilla has come back to their senses. - Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 13416786, 7 years agoAfter the latest ABP update the firefox is taking too much memory (1gb+ )... never had this problem with 2.x.x versions ...i dont have any other addons installed in my browser so i suspect this is an ABP issue

OK read your explanation. When you fix it, you'll get more stars. - Rated 2 out of 5by kalel0, 7 years agoCette nouvelle version de Adblock Plus compatible avec Firefox 57 est décevante. D'abord la fonction pour bloquer des éléments sur une page ne fonctionne tout simplement pas ensuite le choix de liste de blocage qu'on peut ajouter est très réduit et pour terminer les fonctionnalités des options ne sont même pas toutes traduites (en l’occurrence (en français). Avoir pris tout ce temps pour ce résultat décevant, honnêtement ça ne valait pas la peine.
Developer response
posted 7 years agoWe are aware of the issue with the Block Element dialog and are investigating it. You should expect it to be addressed with a follow-up release soon. You can still add any filter list you want, nothing changed here (you can use the links on https://adblockplus.org/subscriptions for example). As to missing translations, everybody is free to help out with those on https://crowdin.com/project/adblockpluschrome and https://crowdin.com/project/adblockplusui (strangely, French is supposed to be 100% translated). - Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 10936178, 7 years agoI can't seem to add more than one filter list on Android. Maybe this is intentional if having a lot of filters is bad for performance? Surely adding the no coin list alongside easy list should be fine?
