Tony Posted August 11, 2016 Report Share Posted August 11, 2016 dont know about that but something seems to have changed - blocking rules i had on here no longer work - i wish like the search addon they would get the hell off my system - its a browser i dont need someone in China deciding what i can or cannot see - just another nail in their coffin to me - one day they will push it too far as they have with many other users 4 hours ago, -ody- said: blocking rules and subscription lists should be stored to the cloud and synced Tony - Vivaldi 4 on Windows 10 64Bit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A.S. Posted August 11, 2016 Report Share Posted August 11, 2016 It's OK. All MX addons don't work on all maxthon.com pages and all inside browsers pages. People very often ask about this when extension does not work as they want. By the way, is here ad? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted August 11, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2016 was just coming back to this - to summerise - i have a couple of adblock rules for this site - they or similar have worked for months - this morning they did not work - i had done nothing but turn the laptop off last night and back on this morning - had not installed any updates to maxthon so in my mind something had changed with the syncing - an hour later after a clean install and the rule file coped over they started to work again - nothing different at my end - no re applying rules - just the same file from an earlier install - so has to be a bug or the syncing that is suspect i have adblock rules on other sites they worked fine - no problems - just here - the whole thing with stuff being blocked here either at the server or lines mysteriously added to adblock is out of order but its always been so - paranoia is alive in Maxthon land Tony - Vivaldi 4 on Windows 10 64Bit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galileusz Posted August 11, 2016 Report Share Posted August 11, 2016 Rules Adblock work well on maxthon.com but you must check whether you have sometimes in their own or the global filters such entry (or similar): @@||maxthon.com^$document If so, blocking will not work. This entry does not have a clean installation. No blocking Blocking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ALeXkRU Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 By the way, I am remembered (in continued): in AdBlock in the settings have a tab to add domains to the white list. So that, may be, the filters not work, because the site is listed in this list. And filled it completely independently, without any user intervention !! I, for example, for all years of use Mx in this list (and its predecessors) did not add anything .. But when looking into this tab, there is always a dozen-other domains in this list... Question: how they appear there ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I fully agree. I've never found a whitelist entry unless I made one. However, on the "Add Tolur Own Filters" tab theree will be automatice entries of exceptions for domainns maxthon.c &, maxthon.cn and exceptions for maxthon domains and Google Search Engine in Global Rules. I have to delete these on clean installs and check them between times. <<SL>> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not know how it is in the installation version, because I use a portable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you remove the UserData folder and start from scratch, you will find a couple exceptions under Global Rules and if you have visited maxthon.com or maxthon.cn, there will be exception rules under those domains too. They do not reappear once I delete them until the next time I create a clean UserData folder. This behavior hasn't changed with MX5. <<SL>> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, there is no problem to remove them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
