  • 1. What is Block Image|Video?

Now, before using the addon, please visit the options page and choose a desired item(s) to block or hide (i.e. image). By default, NO item is selected. Please note that, if you choose to - hide - items, the addon lets these items to be loaded in the browser, but, will make them invisible. On the other hand, if you choose to - block - any item, the addon prevents that specific item from loading into your browser.

In this situation, if you disable the addon (click on the toolbar button to make it gray) all the in invisible elements will become visible again. On the other hand, once you choose block from the options page, the addon will block all elements from loading into your browser.
