It's hidden correctly for me, screenshot: https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uAssets/assets/66517106/f2654027-877c-4a98-bc08-4f2099cddc49

The site is unusable for me becuase I can't click the GDPR modal. I will add a fix for that issue.

[krystian3w]

EL cookies addresed cookie prompt by generic:

###ez-cookie-dialog-wrapper

same AdGuard Cookie notices and optional list "I don't care about cookies".

3 projects have 0 obvious exception for cosmetic filtering.

[okiehsch]

That doesn't help the user with a default setup.

[krystian3w]

So you meant all list should implement too:

learncpp.com#@##ez-cookie-dialog-wrapper

what function out of modal is broken without minimal/full accept?

[KAGEYAM4]

Both Webpages for issue mentioned above, now correctly works. One time it wasn't , now its working.

[krystian3w]

It is possible that they are testing a new way of injecting ads and, because of the failure, have revoked the reservation of ad space.

[KAGEYAM4]

Update - It's working in container ( firefox multi-account container ) but not otherwise

[okiehsch]

So you meant all list should implemen

No. what I mean is we have to fix a broken site if it is broken with a default setup.

what function out of modal is broken without minimal/full accept?

I can't click "Continue with Recommended Cookies" and without clicking that button the site will not function.

[krystian3w]

But I'm not asking why you're allowing a JS file, I'm asking what you have broken after using the filter:

learncpp.com###ez-cookie-dialog-wrapper#ez-cookie-dialog-wrapper

(Those willing can convert the cosmetic filter to a rejecting one using set.js or in uBo dev set-cookie / trusted-set-cookie / trusted-set-local-storage)

That allowing JS seems better.

[okiehsch]

I'm asking what you have broken after using the filter: learncpp.com###ez-cookie-dialog-wrapper#ez-cookie-dialog-wrapper

The ability to interact with your GDPR settings.

[krystian3w]

Well, let you have this evasive answer (In this way, we can disprove the sense of the whole list of EL Cookies, that people will close themselves).

[okiehsch]

It's not evasive, we don't fix, i.e. hide cookie notices or GDPR modals for users with a default setup. If I use your suggested filter that's exactly what I would be doing.

Hm, it was the same on my end but now I can reproduce.

@KAGEYAM4 does it work for you if you add learncpp.com##.cf_monitor to your filter list?

[KAGEYAM4]

@okiehsch now even i can't reproduce. It's working perfectly now. didn't even used learncpp.com##.cf_monitor.

[okiehsch]

Maybe it's a site issue. I will close for now, if the issue reappears just post it here.
