GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 711124
Epiphany adblocker renders doodle.com unusable
Last modified: 2014-03-01 20:41:17 UTC
Doodle.com is a Internet calendar tool for time management, and coordinating meetings. If Epiphany's built-in adblocker is enabled, it does not display contents for an appointment pool or the poll wizard. If I disable the adblocker, doodle.com works fine. Firefox + Adblock Plus and Chomium + Adblock Plus do not have this Problem. Example page that is not correctly displayed: http://doodle.com/polls/wizard.html Related support page on doodle.com: http://support.doodle.com/customer/portal/articles/645339-i-can-only-see-a-white-page
Dupe of #710661 ?
Possibly. Jan, can you try the workaround in bug 710661?
I tried the workaround in bug #710661, but it didn't fix it for me. Adblock Plus in Firefox uses this filter list: https://easylist-downloads.adblockplus.org/easylistgermany+easylist.txt Checksum: 4m0Wi5q74OiqB/HJV9rQ9g Version: 201311041230 Also, I disabled "Allow acceptable Ads" (see https://adblockplus.org/en/acceptable-ads). The doodle.com example page (http://doodle.com/bspbg7u75gu4xkh9) works fine. I changed epiphany's "filters.list"-file accordingly: $ ls ~/.config/epiphany/adblock/ 16c61c1fb2095d0c44a9c6441113d772 filters.list $ head -n 3 ~/.config/epiphany/adblock/16c61c1fb2095d0c44a9c6441113d772 [Adblock Plus 2.0] ! Checksum: 4m0Wi5q74OiqB/HJV9rQ9g ! Version: 201311041230 $ cat ~/.config/epiphany/adblock/filters.list https://easylist-downloads.adblockplus.org/easylistgermany+easylist.txt; But still no success, doodle.com's example page does not work.
Bug 710661 was marked as solved even with the main issue still there. Some websites are being made unusable. I still have the same problem with http://imgur.com/ and http://softpedia.com after an update. I do not want to edit that rules file every time an update changes it. And Firefox/Chrome do not have that problem, I think there must be a problem the way epiphany handles specific adblock rules.
Created attachment 265248 [details] [review] uri-tester: do not block on rules we do not handle I once debugged a problem I had with imgur.com and narrowed it to rules containing a domain= specifier, here is a quick patch, it doesn't implement correct support but prevents Epiphany from blocking too much.
Review of attachment 265248 [details] [review]: Okay.
