by Wirek, 6 years agoMissing import/export functionality (present in older versions!)! Copying and pasting rules exported from older version into text-box areas is counter-intuitive (some of elements like prefixes and suffixes must be manually removed!)! A separate text-box area for "Element Hiding Rules" is missing (it is joined/merged with "Custom Filter Rules" now).
It lets through far too many advertisements and "Adblock Warning and blocking" screens (even with "Adblock Warning Removal List" and "ABP filters" added and enabled) - so it doesn't really do what it is supposed to do!
Shame on you, Adblock Plus!
Edit:
I have abandoned you after many years together in favour of your rival uBlock Origin - their add-on is far more useful.

We hate to see you go! I will certainly pass along the feedback to the team for further improvements. I agree, and export option for custom rules would be great for users. Can you send us some example URLs where you were seeing ads? Feel free to send these details to us via support@adblockplus.org. We look forward to your follow up!
Thanks
