I added a filter to "My Filters" in uBlock Origin:
#div(id^=dropin)
Just recently, it was greyed out. Why? What is wrong with it?

Yes. I am now using uBlock Origin 1.15.24. Why would it find a filter unusable?

Re: uBlock Origin filter greyed out
have you tried removing the filter then reinstating it?

Re: uBlock Origin filter greyed out
Since v.1.15.12 a text editor, CodeMirror, has been integrated into uBO's dashboard.Goodydino wrote:Yes. I am now using uBlock Origin 1.15.24. Why would it find a filter unusable?
The text editor rejected the filter's syntax, it doesn't see it as a valid filter.
I'm not remotely knowledgeable about these filters, but do have one suggestion.....
To make the editor recognize your filter, add a second ' # ' at the beginning, like so: ##div(id^=dropin)

Re: uBlock Origin filter greyed out
Coffeebreak, the extra "#" did the trick. It is now an acceptable filter. Thanks a bunch.
