ABL 3.0.0 has been released.

(And Yes I know the BinOC page isn't up yet.)

Thank You.

I get the same memory consume with ABL as I had with ABE, also ABE supported this addon: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefo ... -up-addon/

My browser is Pale Moon x64 on Windows 7.

I've just installed Adblock Latitude, and it's working perfectly for me. @Tobin: thank you for all the hard work you must have put into developing it!

Perhaps he/she was trying to ask if Adblock Latitude is compatible with the Adblock Plus Pop-up Addon. Is it?

I have been told it does.. I do intend on actually integrating this and that other abp helper extension's functionality into ABL at some point in the future.

I forgot about it I saw that you already replied that you will add support for it soon. I think that with ABL you have to focus on memory consume, just ABP/ABE/ABL consume nearly the same of ram as Pale Moon without addons.

Ram usage is dependent on how many filters are enabled and how many tabs you have on it.. There is no easy way to reduce this.. It is a consequence of having such an extensive amount of filtering.

That would be nice!

By the way, it seems that the checkbox with "Show in add-on bar" (in the options menu) doesn't work. Is this a known issue?

[groundhog2]

At last! Works great, thanks. Toolbar icon could use a bit of work though (just used to the old ABP icon I guess).

WORKSFORME but that being said, I don't understand the need for such a box.. If it is unchecked it throws it back into the customize box.. When rechecked it goes back to where ever it was before.. Very odd.. I think it may have been a superficial hold over from when it used to be a traditional status bar icon.. Just adapted to function similarly.

Yes I know.. I plan to address that in an update. I actually planned to address that before release but ABP's increased dissatisfaction with the Pseudo-Static existing kinda got in the way..

Hi Tobin-
"On 20/11/2014 when attempting to download Adblock Latitude, I get the following error message: "The add-on could not be downloaded because of a connection failure on addons.palemoon.org"."

Per your reply, I tried again. Results were the same: Nada. I' ll keep trying. Right now I'm using the shareware version of Adguard. It works well with PM.

Cheers.

Again, WORKSFORME.. Was Adguard on when you attempted to get ABL? Perhaps it is actually blocking it..

[gcgriswold]

Hi Tobin-

Closed Adguard; tried downloading AL; got the same results. Appreciate the suggestion. I'll try again, when the spirit moves me.

I had no problems downloading and then installing Adblock Latitude in both Windows and linux Pale Moon earlier this morning. Works flawlessly for me too.

I downloaded\installed ABL earlier this morning on one of my Win7 systems, no problem, just finished installing on Xubuntu, Win7 and Win8.1, no issues at all.

have you tried installing another extension, just as a test?

[mikeysc]

Just wanted to note that "Restore own backup" in ABL did restore my custom filters that I backed up before removing ABE. So manually reentering (i.e. retyping) the custom filters wasn't necessary. All seems to be working (no list subscriptions, and not many hits to test my custom filters).

[gcgriswold]

Concerning ABL:

1. Successfully downloaded ABL with Yandex.
2. Manually installed ABL in PM.
3. It works.
4. Thanks for all of your suggestions.

Cheers.

Great! Glad you've got it installed. I am confused, what does it mean:

1. Successfully downloaded ABL with Yandex.
2. Manually installed ABL in PM.

I thought Yandex was a search engine like !G or DDG. Clearly I'm out of the loop.
