Introduction
As a web developer or a website administrator, detecting and dealing with AdBlock usage can be a pesky task. To address this issue, I stumbled upon Adblock Detection Add-on For Filebob, which claims to detect AdBlock usage and force visitors to disable it to continue accessing the website. In this review, I’ll dig deeper into this add-on and its capabilities.
Review
Note: Adblock Detection Add-on isn’t an independent storage system. Adblock Detection Add-on is available only for Filebob. If you do not purchase Filebob yet then click here for purchasing [link]
This add-on is specifically designed to detect AdBlock usage and encourage visitors to disable it by blocking content. It appears to be a straightforward tool that doesn’t require significant setup or configuration. Since it’s built for Filebob 1.8x, I assume you’ll need to have a compatible version of Filebob installed.
Features and Functionality
The core feature of this add-on is, as expected, AdBlock detection. The add-on does its job by detecting whether a user has an AdBlock browser extension enabled and, if so, displaying a popup or a modal window informing the visitor that AdBlock is enabled. The content of this notification is fully customizable, allowing you to tailor your message to fit your website’s tone.
Change Logs
For now, there’s only one change log available: Version 1.0, which lists a single update: "Initial Release". Unfortunately, this adds to my uncertainty about this add-on’s reliability, as I have no history or track record of updates.
Overall Experience
Disappointingly, my overall experience with this add-on was not impressive. It’s essentially a basic ad-block detector with limited options for customization and no obvious updates in its history.
Rating: 0/10
Why?: With no other versions available and no indications of any further development or updates, this add-on feels unfinished and unreliable.
Recommendation
Due to its lack of depth and minimal customization options, I wouldn’t recommend using this add-on for blocking AdBlock users. Further development and more comprehensive capabilities are essential to make it a useful tool for detecting and combating AdBlock abuse.
Hope this review captures the essence of the ad-block detector!
