Hi everyone,

First post on Team Liquid ! - TL Fighting !

Ok so in this post I will cover :

1) - How to install the Firefox addon "Addblock Plus"

and

2) - How to add Starcraft streaming and community sites to a whitelist so that the featured adds still appear. Support eSport ! =)

Edit : Adblock Plus doesn't work for streams in Google Chrome ! Thanks ruXxar.

1) Installation :

For Firefox users :

+ Show Spoiler +

- First click on this link, it will lead you to the AddBlock Plus page on the Firefox website.
> https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/adblock-plus/

- Then click on the green "+ Add to Firefox" button, this will download the exension so it might take 5 or 10 seconds.

[image loading]

- After the download is finished Firefox will ask you if you really want to install Addblock Plus, so you clic on "Install now" button.
(I have a "Installer maintenant" button but obviously it's because I have a french Windows...^^)


[image loading]


- Quickly after that Firefox will pop-up a small window in the left top corner where it asks you if you want to restart Firefox now.
First check that you don't have anything important opened on a Firefox tab or any downloads that are still active (some downloads crash if you restart Firefox) because this will restart everything in Firefox.
If you don't want to restart Firefox, just click on the cross at the top right corner of the "Restart now" window.
(Again I have "Redémarrer maintenant" on my button but you should have "Restart now")


[image loading]


- Now that you have restarted Firefox you will have to subscribe to an add filter.
No worries, you won't need to creat an account or so.
Ok, so now click on this link, it will lead you to Adblock's official website
> http://adblockplus.org/en/subscriptions

- Like you see there are a lot of different filters, some of them cover the same sites or have elements in common, but my advise is to just subscribe to 1 big filter that will cover most of the adds on the internet.
The one we will subscribe to is "EasyList", but you can subscribe to other one if you like to.


[image loading]


- So now you have to confirm to Firefox that you want to subscribe to this filter by clicking on "Add subscription".
You can also rename the filter if you want.


[image loading]


- Tadaam ! Your done with the installation !

- If you delayed the restart of Firefox because you had something important on your other tabs you will have to click on the "Firefox" button at the top left corner and then click on "Addons".
Or just clic on Ctrl + Shift + A.


[image loading]



- The you just have to clicl on the "Restart now" text.


[image loading]


- Now you only have to go back in this tutorial to the step after the restart.



2) - Whitelists

So for people that don't know, the issue with Adblock Plus is that while blocking adds you are also blocking adds comming from streams and community sites.
That means that pro-gamers and websites won't make money with what they do.

- Streaming -> for pro-gamers and casters
- Hosting space -> for community sites
- Paying pro-gamers and send them to korea -> teams

So if you want to support eSport and you really should !!! ^^
--> Follow this quick tutorial !

For Firefox users :

+ Show Spoiler +

- First download this file, it's ok, no virus, just a text file. =)
> http://www.2shared.com/document/wH_g3NR9/Whitelist.html

Or if you are really paranoid creat a text file and add this code :

> + Show Spoiler +


[Adblock Plus 1.1]
! Checksum: 5/038LzkOs8K2b1UgJRatw
@@||*teamliquid.net/
@@||teamliquid.net^$document
@@||twitch.tv^$document
@@||*twitch.tv/
@@||*justin.tv/
@@||justin.tv^$document



- Now you have to import that text file by clicking on the small red "ABP" button in the bottom left corner and the on "Preferences".
Or just Ctrl + Shift + O.


[image loading]

- If you don't have that red "ABP" button in the bottom left corner lick on "Spoiler" just below.

+ Show Spoiler +

- If the button doesn't appears it's most likely that you don't have your addon navigationbar activated.
To do so click on the "Firefox" button and then on "Options".
If "Addon navigationbar" isn't checked, click on it.
Or simply Ctrl + /.


[image loading]




- To actually import the text file click on "Filters" at the top left corner and then "Import Filters...".
Or just Ctrl + Shift + I.


[image loading]


- When the importation is done you'll have to click on "Apply" and then "Ok".
Tadam your done whith adding the sites to the White list !

To add more sites to the whitelist, just creat a text file, add the code above, replace teamliquid / justin.tv / twitch.tv with whatever site you choose not to block and import it like before.



So that's it for the tutorial !
Feel free to ask questions or pm me if you have issues !

ps : I'm looking for Ruby on Rails and C / C++ developpers to help me realise some software and web application ideas that I have and that could be great for the Starcraft community. So if your interested pm me.
