Corona Virus Message

Anyone getting fed up with the info message at the top of every board, it can be hidden using the following filter in uBlock Origin. (Will probably also work in ABP).

Can you explain how to do this in U Block please

DoaM

Right click on the icon and select Options
Click the My Filters tab
Copy the above into the box and click Apply Changes

Reload the MSE page and the message should be gone. FWIW these are the filters I use for MSE:

Sorry - Firefox 74.0

Right clicking on the UB icon (top right) doesn't offer me 'options'

DoaM

It'll be either Manage Extension or Customise, probably the latter. (Options is what it shows in Chrome).

The alternative is to left click on it and select the Dashboard icon (which looks a little like a graphics equaliser in the Chrome version).

Still couldn't find how to do it, sorry, but simply ...

Right click on the annoying message and click 'block element' and then 'create' ... job done!

Job's a good un!
