AdGuard Extra

AdGuard Extra is a userscript (or a browser extension) that is supposed to fight ad blocking circumvention attempts which become more and more and popular. Regular ad blocking rules do not allow us being as flexible as it's necessary, that's why AdGuard Extra was developed.

AdGuard Extra comes pre-installed with all premium AdGuard versions for if you use it, you don't need to do anything. However, if you want to use it alongside AdGuard browser extension or any other ad blocker, you'll need to use an additional extension.

How to exclude websites

Userscript

You can restrict userscript from working on certain websites by adding @exclude rule to the userscript header. For example, to exclude example.com, you should add the following line to the userscript header:

// @exclude  *://example.com/*
// @exclude *://*.example.com/*

When using Tampermonkey, you can also use the built-in editor to add the rule. To do so, open the userscript settings, and add the pattern to the Blacklisted Pages field of Security section.

Extension

AdGuard Extra is a companion extension, it is supposed to be used with a full-scale ad blocker like AdGuard or any other.

It provides no user interface save for the extension icon in the toolbar. Your browser should allow you to hide the icon if it annoys you.

Please note that it is only useful on a limited set of websites, and it does nothing on the websites not from this list.
