Can't install latest legacy UBO
Hi. Trying out Pale Moon again. Trying to install the latest legacy UBO, but there is no .xpi at github, or anywhere else I can find. (The assets keep loading, in an endless loop.) It looks like UBO legacy has not been updated in more than a year, anyway. Is the project kaput? Thanks.

Re: Can't install latest legacy UBO
The links in the GitHub repo's releases page are likely not appearing because you don't have Palefill installed (documented extensively elsewhere, you may search the forum for other details).
You can either install Palefill first then download from uBO's GitHub page, or you may try installing uBO directly from Fresco instead.

Thanks. The Fresco link worked perfectly. Much appreciated. Now to fight the good fight to block YouTube ads....

Re: Can't install latest legacy UBO

No issue with official uBO in other browsers.
Above filters don't deal with these...

What can be the cause of this?

Re: Can't install latest legacy UBO
I checked your link with PM, FX and SM and I get no ads. I use the above rules in all three within uBO. Maybe some of my other rules or filter subscriptions are blocking them.nicolaasjan wrote: ↑2023-01-22, 19:13Above filters don't deal with these...

If you're talking about the sponsor ads for the MPG Z690 Force Motherboard or the Corsair 7000X, those are embedded (part of the actual video) by the author.

I should have been more clear.LAR Grizzly wrote: ↑2023-01-22, 22:35If you're talking about the sponsor ads for the MPG Z690 Force Motherboard or the Corsair 7000X, those are embedded (part of the actual video) by the author.nicolaasjan wrote: ↑2023-01-22, 19:13Above filters don't deal with these...

I meant the pre-roll ads at the beginning of the video.
I thought these would be blocked by the default lists?

I get no ads with uBO in all three of the mentioned browsers. Maybe you should expand your filter subscriptions?

Re: Can't install latest legacy UBO
Just found out what was the culprit.LAR Grizzly wrote: ↑2023-01-23, 04:49I get no ads with uBO in all three of the mentioned browsers. Maybe you should expand your filter subscriptions?
Some time ago, I replaced the assets in uBO Legacy with the current ones from uBO...
(because some assets were out of date/removed, like "Online Malicious URL Blocklist" and "Spam404").
All seemed to work well untill now.
Did a complete uninstall of this version, including deleting ./extension-data/ublock0.sqlite and installed the test build from here.
Added "Online Malicious URL Blocklist" to "Custom".
Code: Select all
