Google Chrome Plugins and Themes

I think it uses sqlite database %PROFILE%\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\localStorage\chrome-extension_chmimgmjdabgiilljdjfbonifbhiglao_0.localstorage
Author can confirm this (or not)

Personally, I think calling this extension Adblock+ is a mistake. A lot of people are confusing it with the Firefox Adblock+ which blocks both ad sites and page elements. This would have been better named Element Hider, as that's what it does. The only way to get a plugin to block ads from loading is in Firefox as far as I can tell.

Edit: Further info for beginners in this thread.

Thanks mindphaser.

Does anyone know if there's a script version of this extension anywhere? Links I've found only lead to the .crx file, and I want to try it in SRWare Iron, which can't load .crx files.

EDIT: Found it, and it's working fine. Anyone know how to edit the strings it saves (assuming they're in the sqlite database file?)

I use SQLite Expert Personal when there is a need to edit

Thanks Sulasno. I can't find the file Adblock's data is stored in, but at least can open the storage files now.

Yes. Also you can use button "Edit" for rules a current page and preferences for global filters.

When the extension system is completed, it will obviously include content policy/BlacklistManager

Lex, is there any chance of having a larger edit dialog with a textarea for editing the filters? Once there are a few it becomes awkward, and I tend to copy-edit-paste then OK.

Great work, by the way!

After blocking several elements it gives me a box "cookies is full ". And i can't block more. How to fix it?

@drozdii: Put --enable-local-storage in your Chrome shortcut.

Mind you, I'm giving Iron a good testing as I like the .ini file content blocking, and I've used this setting, but Adblock+ is loosing my settings on reloading filtered sites. Anyone know why that might be..?

thanks it works
