Hi,

Opera has now feature to block ads and you can add own block list in settings panel. But how the file should looks like? I am trying to use the adblockplus syntex (https://adblockplus.org/filters) and it is not working. Here is how my file looks like:

dobreprogramy.pl##.content-list iframe
dobreprogramy.pl##.page-element
dobreprogramy.pl##*.content-list iframe
dobreprogramy.pl##*.page-element

but not working. How to fix it? Thx.

Is there any update on an official way to do these block lists? I see there is now a validator that checks the format of your block list when you add it. Mine was invalid until I put the following header in the text file:

[Adblock Plus 2.0]

Even after doing this all my rules that work fine in uBlock Origin seem to have no effect when used in Opera's built-in blocker. My understanding is that both use the easylist format.
