Title: Is this a forum bug? Post by: JeromeTash on December 15, 2019, 06:06:50 PM For some reason, I am unable to view this topic (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5209747.0) directly. It's just blank when using both my Firefox and chrome browsers. It's the first time something like this has happened to me here.
Is there any possible explanation to what causes this or it's probably bug? https://talkimg.com/images/2023/05/14/blobdd109be28ad45778.png Title: Re: Is this a forum bug?

Title: Re: Is this a forum bug? Post by: Welsh on December 15, 2019, 06:18:36 PM It appears that this is being blocked via a ad blocker. Are you using one? I'm unsure why this particular post is being blocked by it, but upon enabling an ad blocker the contents of the post disappear. I'll take a look at what might be causing this a little later.

This seems the reason which I encountered the same as OP on my thread which I asked here (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1610428.msg53293854#msg53293854). I'm using uBlock for some reason it blocks the whole op. Title: Re: Is this a forum bug?

I'm wondering whether Ublock Origin doesn't like some of the BBCODE in that thread.

I'm using uBlock for some reason it blocks the whole op. Cool, thanks for that. When I have time later I'll take a look at the page sources, and requests from popular ad blockers see what is going on. Its not immediately obvious to me. However, this isn't a forum bug. Definitely something ad blockers are picking up on the contents of the post. Title: Re: Is this a forum bug?

I'm wondering whether Ublock Origin doesn't like some of the BBCODE in that thread. I just tried to remove the ad place like the words advertisements/advertise/d on the top part of the op (image below) and it shows while the uBlock enabled on my firefox.https://i.imgur.com/tt1MCek.png Screenshot of the ad place on my op from edge browser which doesn't have uBlock installed. So apparently, uBlock blocked all pages that have ads/advertisements/advertise or similar keywords on it. While on sfr10 thread there's only 2 Advertising keywords shown and it blocks the whole post.

I think it's somehow related to forum ad slots and this particular message which is displayed under every slot: Quote Advertised sites are not endorsed by the Bitcoin Forum. They may be unsafe, untrustworthy, or illegal in your jurisdiction. Advertise here. With uBlock Origin turned on i cannot see a single ad. They're gone from adinfo (https://bitcointalk.org/adrotate.php?adinfo) page too. Title: Re: Is this a forum bug? Post by: theymos on December 15, 2019, 09:06:50 PM It's a bug in the "uBlock filters" filter list: complain to them. They're blocking every <span> containing the text "advert" with the rule: bitcointalk.org##:xpath(//span[contains(text(),"Advert")]/../..). This is such a general rule that there isn't much I could do to prevent it from blocking posts.
Ironically, I could easily make it not actually match the ad area, since unlike post contents, I control that... |
