WEB+ and hosts file ???

[tatoomi]

I'm using a ad blocker (adzhosts) that lists pub sites and returns on the local loop. it works well with Qupzilla, but is ignored by Web +. there is another bug with some site I have to reload the page 2/3 times for it to appear (qwant, 20 minutes ....)

The hosts file works just fine for me. I use one from ​https://github.com/StevenBlack/hosts Where did you put the hosts file?

[tatoomi]

in /media/fred/Haiku/system/settings/network/

There a other place ?

[pulkomandy]

No, that's the right place. It works fine for me using a file from the link I pasted. Can you try that? Also make sure the file is named "hosts" (lowercase) and not "HOSTS" or "Hosts" (as seems to be the default when downloading adzhosts from sourceforge)

[tatoomi]

OK , work fine with your link. I change ad blocker. thank you.

[pulkomandy]

Well, still we should identify what's the problem with adzhosts and why it does not work.

After tests: -Qupzilla has ad-block to install by default (shame on me). -Qupzilla + adzhosts is as effective as StevenBlack, It will seem that it is more restrictive than adzhosts. Web + is also more fluid, as expected. So I can say that there is no problem with Web + and you can close the bug. Next time, I will do more testing
