Ad blocking and the Gawker Family of sites Thread Tools Search this Thread Display Modes

The Gawker family of blogs updated their site structure recently and caused one of the default "Blocked URL" rules included with OmniWeb to prevent the stylesheet from loading.

If you visit any of these sites:

Consumerist Deadspin Defamer Fleshbot Gawker Gizmodo Gridskipper Idolator io9 Jalopnik Jezebel Kotaku Lifehacker Valleywag Wonkette

Then you may have encountered this problem. To fix it, just open your Ad Block preference pane. Click on Edit Blocked URLs List.... And in the lower table (the White List), add this rule:

Code:
gawker\.com.*style
Now OmniWeb will always allow anything that matches this rule which includes the stylesheets for the above sites and not much else.
