agrora.de

Post by laurazaw »

Hello,

we run a online trading platform for agricultural raw material. The users access the site at

Code: Select all

https://agrora.de/
Recently we discovered that Adblocker blocks every element on the site named "advertisement". This causes problems as everything a customer wants to buy/sell is called an advertisement on the page.
We changed all elements to "offer" for the landing page, but want to avoid having to change all advertisment elements in the code.

Can we get the URL https://agrora.de/ added onto a whitelist?

Thanks in advance.

Hello, I think you misunderstood us.

We are currently building an Online Trading Platform for Agricultural Resources. We are talking about an existing, huge trading platform in development for 2 years now which has most of its content revolving around an entity called "Advertisement", which, in this case, isn't an advertisement for marketing, but an advertisement for your agricultural products inside our platform.

A preview of such an "Advertisement" can be seen on our current landing page, https://agrora.market. As you can see, they are simple information cards about the sold products on Agrora itself.

This (along with other agrora.* domains like .de, .com, .net, .eu) will also be the site where the finished platform will be hosted by the end of this year.

Every single instance in the frontend that is called "Advertisement" in any way and any single API URI that contains "advertisement" or even "ad" is blocked by EasyList currently, which are a lot since we are building an SPA using React and include BEM naming styles, which gives us a lot of class names like "AdvertisementList", "AdvertisementDetailsCard", "AdvertisementScreen" and a lot of URLs like "/advertisements", "/my-market/advertisements", "/advertisements/specify", "/v1/advertisements/search" etc.

We can't rename thousands of references and thousands of lines of code, especially because "Advertisement" is the absolute only correct term for this.

This is why we're asking for an exception on our hosts https://agrora.market, .de, .com, .net and .eu including all sub-domains (e.g. https://api.agrora.market/v1/advertisements, https://dev.next.agrora.market/advertisements etc.)

If you require any information about our platform, I'll answer any questions. If you want to audit it, we can make an appointment and I'll get it audited by you. If you want to take a look at it, we'll make a presentation appointment and I'll show you everything including the blocked elements.

Thanks for your time looking into this.

Kind regards,

Torben

Hello,

that's because, as said, the platform is still in development and not on a public domain yet.

The website you see right now is just our landing-page, but it actually suffers from the same problem.

As you can see in the image "images/preview-offer.png" in the header (The styled block with "E-WEIZEN" in it), the image actually was called "preview-advertisement.png" before because.
That block exactly is what we call "Advertisement" on our platform (We do have "Offers", too, you can create offers on advertisments, so "Offer" is actually not a name we can pick)

We renamed this one to "preview-offer.png" just to avoid it not being displayed through AdBlock/uBlock. It's actually named wrong just to avoid it getting removed.

As you can clearly see, this is not the kind of advertisement you want to block with AdBlock/uBlock. It's what our platform is made of and they are advertisements the users come for, it's what they're searching there.

If you require to check specific classes and exclude them explicitly, let's rather just wait for the release of the platform and I'll then create a new thread, if that works better for you.

Thanks in advance,

Torben

If you cannot rename during the development phase (which would be much better for all) .. well let's wait the public release and you will be able to tell us what is wrong and also provide specific links / pages to check the issues
