[ARCHIVED THREAD] - AdBlock on the new format (Page 2 of 4)

took me about 30 minutes to hide add the shit at the top and the HUGE useless icons Yeah, more concerning than the adds arethe large "AR15.COM" banner and other assorted widgets that makes surfing a little more conspicuous. I'll have to do some kind of third-party tweaking, haven't look at the underlying site code yet to see if custom CSS will resolve the issues. |

I've added uBlock Origin to Chrome and blocked the images, but how do you get rid of the actual ad rows? After doing some googling and inspecting the page, add this to your uBlock MyFilters tab and the ad rows will disappear: ##div[class="expanded row collapse show-for-large minis"] |

Edit to add: Also the following in Adblock Plus rules will block additional ads and the large blank ad space after the first post. ||ar15.com/images/buttons/* ||ar15.com/images/main/* ##div[class="expanded row collapse"] |

Yes, thank you! Looks much better when the top third of the page isn't covered in ads. I understand it costs money to keep the lights on, but paying for a membership and still being subjected to ads is a little much for me. |

The ability to select and block content and content container areas un uBO is pretty good. Learning it now.. This is cool as hell. I've been using UBO for a while and did not know it would do this. I now have NOTHING on the page but just what I want.

My problem with the was that they were all animated, and worked my laptop hard enough to make the fan run. That's ridiculous. I don't think any web site has ever done that before. |

Trying it back to back I'm noticing longer load times with ads manually blocked than with uBlock disabled. Probably just because my Chromebook's CPU can't handle it. Did you block them all one at the time, or did you use the filter string posted above? |

I blocked the row as a whole: "www.ar15.com##.header.row.expanded > .minis.show-for-large.collapse.row.expanded" Same for the bottom row. Quoted:

I blocked the row as a whole: "www.ar15.com##.header.row.expanded > .minis.show-for-large.collapse.row.expanded" Same for the bottom row. Just wondering, because some people were initially blocking the individual elements, including myself. I wondered if that many filters would slow down page load across the board. |

I ad blocked the crap out of everything. http://AR15.Com/media/mediaFiles/57852/Capture-95071.JPG yeah but HOW.. i fucked with my settings and am still getting banner ads.
Or, click on ad block, click block element, highlight entire bar where ads are, done in one shot and it sped my load times up without all the blinking ad shit at the top |

Frankly, even with ABP broken the new website loads much faster than before. The only reason I used ABP on ARF was because the ads took forever to load and slowed my computer to a crawl. That doesn't seem to be an issue anymore. Funny, my load times have gone down the shifter. Like, 27 seconds to load a page on mobile with 58mbps wifi |

Thanks to the knowledgeable posters. The below got mine sorted out and I learned a good deal about customizing ad blockers.
||ar15.com/images/buttons/* ||ar15.com/images/main/* ##div[class="expanded row collapse show-for-large minis"] ##div[class="expanded row collapse"] ar15.com##.footer |

Boom, this worked perfectly. Thanks for the tip. This method works fine, but I wonder if having that many filters has a noticeable impact on ALL page loads. I would think that the other method, with just one filter would be much more efficient. |

And as I just posted in the main thread, they beat the shit out of your processor. There are probably over 40 GIF's running in every window you have open. The fan on my asus gaming laptop was winding up, and that never happens on a web page. I blocked the GIF's at the top and bottom of the page, and all is cool and calm again. Quoted:

The ad banners at the top and bottom of the pages. Adblock Plus used to block them, but apparently not anymore. And as I just posted in the main thread, they beat the shit out of your processor.
