[QUOTE="oldschool, post: 865589, member: 71262"] Brave user tip! Here are two ways to block unwanted elements if you are using Brave's built-in adblocker. #1 - The easier way: Hover over , e.g. a cookie notice or an empty placeholder which breaks the page > Right-click on Brave icon > Choose "Block element via selector." > If Brave selector is now populated, choose "OK" > Element removed > Voila! You are done. #2 - If #1 results in "We were unable to automatically populate a correct CSS selector for you. Please manually enter a CSS selector to block:" message, this means you must manually choose selector. To do so, proceed as follows: Hover over element as above (in #1) > Right-click on "Inspect" (which will open developer tools) > Hover over element (again, as in #1) > You will now see [I]the same element highlighted[/I] in developer tools window > Hover over highlighted area (code) in developer tools window > right-click & Choose "copy selector" > Right-click on Brave and choose "Block element via selector" > Paste into empty Brave selector window > Element removed > Voila! You are done. My opinion: Method #2 looks complicated but is pretty easy once you are familiar with the method. Of course, µBO manual element blocking is simpler and easier, but the Brave feature is still pretty nice. And it means one less extension in Brave. Enjoy! (y):D [/QUOTE]
