Using Adblock Plus to remove Facebook ticker and Sponsored Ads
The Facebook ticker and Sponsored Ads are a waste of everyone's time. Do you seriously want to allow it to distract you from doing more productive things?
I downloaded Adblock Plus so as to be able to streamline facebook and remove that godawful ticker.
Download Adblock Plus here: Adblock Plus
After you have downloaded and installed Adblock Plus, to edit your filter subscription and add an automated filter list to it, you can copy and paste this address into your browser - chrome://adblockplus/content/ui/subscriptionSelection.xul
But this is not what we're here to do today. We're here to add very specific filters to remove the ticker and sponsored ads while we're at it.
Go to your Adblock Plus Preferences under Tools, and Add these filters to the list:
www.facebook.com##[id="pagelet_rhc_ticker"] www.facebook.com##[id="pagelet_ticker"] www.facebook.com##[class="ego_section"]
Its really simple - and as you can see, you can also use this to remove specific div elements from any page as long as you know the name of the element.
