to your filter list. The picker will work and you should not see any anti adblock message.

Without that filter you'll get anti adblocking stuff

But if this filter is enabled, cosmetic filters and the pickup functionality are completely disabled :-|

For example I hide the complete header (via the pickup feature)

Yes, it's a uBO bug, hasn't been fixed yet.

Hmm, cannot be fixed (in this case), shide will disable any filter created by the picker

Just wanted to confirm that the solution by okiehsch works for me. Is there a reason why the filter list cannot be adjusted to reflect these changes?
