Firefox 사용자 12812696 님, 6년 전SECOND NEW FEATURE REQUEST 9/12/2019:
Thanks again to the developer for implementing a new keyboard shortcut to trigger element blocking. If possible, I'd like to request another important feature. I'd like to be able to undo the previous block operation in order to restore page elements unintentionally zapped by said operation. Currently I see no way to do this other than unblocking ALL blocked items for the site and starting over, which is very tedious. An alternative remedy to an "undo" option might be to highlight blockable elements on mouseover to isolate precisely what content will be effected, thus mitigating the need for an undo option (though it would still not address accidental clicks).
--END OF SECOND NEW FEATURE REQUEST--
A very lightweight, sleek and swift content blocker, but like so many others there is no keyboard shortcut option to invoke the function. An ideal element blocker should require no more than one keystroke and one mouse click, but I have yet to encounter one. Best advantage this addon has over similar offerings is that this one remembers blocked items.
UPDATE: Great thanks to the developer for adding the keyboard shortcut option after only two days of leaving the review! This addon is now officially the least cumbersome and slickest element blocker there is for Firefox, and I've tried every one of them.

6년 전에 게시됨Hey, thanks for the nice review :) Because of your comment I've just added a keyboard shortcut to initiate element-blocking mode. It's Ctrl+B by default, but you should be able to reconfigure it to any keyboard combo you like within your Firefox settings.
EDIT: I just added a feature to show all blocked elements that also lets you remove any specific items, which makes fixing mistakes much easier.

- I haven't used it yet, but here is a 5-star review for your snarky comeback in response to that guy 10 months ago who gave you a 2-star rating because you didn't implement his request by the time he finished writing his review and chastised you for not reading his mind in advance.
Thank you for your contributions! ;-) - 5점 만점에 3점Firefox 사용자 14065238 님, 일 년 전up until the most recent update when I blocked an element IT STAYED BLOCKED. Now the items I list as blocked keep maliciously reappearing! This is prevalent on Youtube! I was using this app to block abusive playlist content that could NOT be dismissed from the Home page.

일 년 전에 게시됨Thanks for your feedback. I can work to make it a more intuitive experience!
Also, I appreciated your sassy last line there, so in response to that...
Seems like a simple 5-star rating is not that much to ask for. 🤪- 5점 만점에 5점Firefox 사용자 15544790 님, 2년 전
- 5점 만점에 4점Firefox 사용자 18229160 님, 2년 전Just added this add-on on firefox, GOD is so good, the only minus i can say about it is that you can not edit selected elements as you would block selected elements.
i blocked every sidebar on my most visited sites and zoomed en a bit JUST TO HAVE A NICE CENTERED EXEPRIENCE ON THOSE SITES.
4/5 Good enough for me개발자 답글
2년 전에 게시됨I'll have to add an edit feature at some point! Thank you for the review :) I'm glad you're finding it useful. - 5점 만점에 5점Firefox 사용자 13997858 님, 2년 전
- 5점 만점에 5점SomeGuysName 님, 2년 전Would have liked to give 5 stars, since this is the only add-on of it's type that consistently works in Firefox, but it needs an ON/OFF mode. Instead of having to activate this add-on for every element I'd like to remove, it would be nice to turn it on, remove everything, then toggle "Element Blocker" off. Too many unnecessary clicks and keystrokes otherwise. Besides that this add-on works perfectly. (Edit: added 5th star for developer responsiveness)

2년 전에 게시됨Hi, thanks for the feedback and functionality suggestion! That's a very good idea - perhaps I can implement an Edit Mode where you add everything you want to block then press Save. - 5점 만점에 4점Peter Lyons Kehl 님, 2년 전Thank you. This works well.
Feature request: An option not just to hide the element, but to make the space it took shrink (if there's nothing else in that table column, or similar). It can be done through CSS, I don't remember if it's visibility, display or what property.개발자 답글
2년 전에 게시됨This is already how it works. As an example, if you hide all of the contents of a table row, the empty row will still be there. Instead of hiding contents of the row, you should hide the row itself, and then it's space disappears. Sometimes when you hide an item you don't get the parent element, so just hide and hover over the area again to find and hide it. - 5점 만점에 3점Firefox 사용자 13866330 님, 2년 전It works but it keeps unhiding the element. I want to hide the safesearch is on and it does for a bit then it pops back up. When I hid it with ublock it worked much better(but I had to remove that from the browser for issues with it).
Ps this is to stop a dementia patient from spending ALL day with porn. He's in a much better mood when he just spending his time watching tv shows and movies on the streaming service. - 5점 만점에 5점Firefox 사용자 17848028 님, 2년 전Love this- can't stand those little advertising movies in the lower right corner of sites. Ad Blockers don't get them - but this does.
- I like it very much!
Only 3 stars, because two things are missing for me:
1. Writing rules by hand / modifying rules
--> sometimes it is not possible to click the element which should be blocked and you need to click all contained elements to get rid of everything)
2. The possibility to block elements only for a certain URL (and not the whole domain)
--> e.g. blocking video suggestions on YouTube start page is not possible without simultaneously blocking the list of videos when visiting a certain channel (Since both elements have id="primary" and are contained in the same hierarchy)
Probably the best solution would be to allow the user to enter a regex to specify the URLs.
I would implement these features myself, but unfortunately this plugin seems to be closed source?개발자 답글
2년 전에 게시됨Thanks for the detailed suggestions and the very carefully selected 3 stars 😜
URL-specific blocking is a good idea. And adding/modifying rules by hand is definitely on my radar as a feature I want to add next.
Regex is great for very technical users, but not for everyone else. I'll try to come up with a more user-friendly approach.
You can and should implement these features in your own add-on and release it to the community! Creating an add-on isn't hard if you have some basic HTML, CSS, and JavaScript knowledge, which it sounds like you may have.
