ElementHider: Declutter Your Web
Tired of spoilers, annoying ads, clickbait, or irrelevant content getting in your way online? ElementHider empowers you to hide or blur any part of a web page, creating a cleaner, more focused, and personalized Browse experience.
Take control of what you see. Whether you're filtering specific topics on social media feeds or decluttering news articles, ElementHider puts you in charge.
Key Features for a Tailored Web Experience:
* Hide Anything, Easily:
* Point & Click Hiding: Simply click the extension icon, visually select any element—from a small text link to an entire sidebar, user profile, or "suggested for you" box—and hide it.
* Hide by Keyword: Create a custom list of words or phrases. Any element containing them will automatically disappear, offering precise control over your content.
* Blur Instead of Hide: If you don't want to completely hide content, choose to blur elements instead. Just hover your mouse over them to reveal the content when you're ready, providing a flexible way to manage distractions.
* Boost Productivity & Focus: Remove visual noise from social media, news sites, video platforms, and more. Work or browse with fewer interruptions.
* Smart & Reliable Detection: Our advanced engine is built to handle complex, dynamic websites, including social media feeds and video sites where new content loads continuously. It reliably finds and hides unwanted elements as you scroll.
* Customizable Rules for Precision:
* Safe Test Mode: Use "Test Mode" to highlight matching elements in green before they hide. This helps you fine-tune your rules with confidence.
* Advanced Options: Set keywords to be case-insensitive or exact match. Apply rules to specific websites only (e.g., hide a keyword only on news sites). Adjust "Hiding Sensitivity" to hide just a small link or the entire post containing it.
Works Seamlessly Across Your Favorite Sites:
Element Hider is designed to give you control across virtually any website you visit, including:
* YouTube: Hide recommended videos, comments, or distracting sidebars.
* X (Twitter): Clean up your feed by hiding trending topics, "who to follow," or promotional posts.
* Facebook: Remove ads, suggested posts, or event notifications for a cleaner feed.
* News & Blog Sites: Get rid of pop-ups, sticky headers, and irrelevant sections.
* Shopping Sites: Clear out "similar items" or "recently viewed" for a simpler experience.
* ...and many more!

A Quick Note: While Element Hider is highly effective, website structures can vary. Because of this, it may not hide every single element on every page. If you encounter any issues, please feel free to leave feedback.

- (2025-07-12) Jonah: Very useful extension that can do a good job shielding you from toxic content. The only problem is that it makes web pages slower to load when using a lot of filters. It's worse for some websites (e.g. Youtube) than others
- (2025-06-16) CRISTAL SENSATA: I use this to softblock some people from an online forum, but since this last update it is not hiding the keywords I add that are usernames (starting with the @ character). I want to hide only comments by "@user" but not block the word "user" because the usernames usually are casual words that other posts may use, like @love, @champion etc.
- (2025-06-12) John: Better! We lost uBlock Origin, and so far all the other ones I've tried let you click on elements, but it never selects the 'right' element, and they give no way to directly 'edit' what they picked. 99% of the time, I just want to hit F12, find the id or class "I" want to remove, and add that to a list of things to block. This did the trick in QBO...thanks!
- (2025-04-16) Milly Parker: easy to use with immediate results -- so grateful for this extension!!
- (2025-03-11) 永水: not hide image on twitter but its good
- (2025-03-03) r.e.m: frustrating that it hides every first 5 images on google for any search, with option to exclude google.com not working.
- (2025-02-23) Darryl: Works really well on MyAnimeList. This extension is The Best <3 Thank you so much <3
- (2025-02-10) con3x man: I have been using this extension for many years, and it’s really great. The only inconvenience is that it only blocks based on the title. Please consider adding a feature to check the href, alt, and text content to block as well. Thank you very much!
- (2024-11-21) Partridge Rosenthol: An actual lifesaver
- (2024-11-18) ThatsMyKulture: Great App but Delay feature is required as Elements Reappear when page finish loading.
- (2024-09-30) subhash: One of the best extension
- (2024-08-20) Edwin H.: Helps a lot when you try to read a blog or a website full of Ad content articles.
- (2024-08-19) AsGood AsItGets: Although I managed to write a selector that correctly identifies the items I want to hide from a listing, using the non-standard :contains() selector, unfortunately it doesn't hide them because I assume it runs before the page is refreshed by Next/React, and as a result the extension "sees" only the initial mostly empty page. It would be nice if it could have an option for milliseconds to run after page load, maybe it would solve the issue for most modern SPA apps.

- (2024-06-14) Alison Davidson: Thank you so much! I'm using it to block Taylor Swift from my serious news feeds (I'm confident I won't be able to see this review once I post it).
- (2024-04-07) Christian Rauch: Great extension if you like to read the news in the morning and watch a stream of a sports event afterwards
- (2024-02-28) Rnjai Lamba: This is the most comprehensive and functional extension. ex. removes twitter "What's Happening" with {div[aria-label="Timeline: Trending now"]} >>> twitter.com Other extensions weren't able to remove "What's Happening" without issues.
- (2023-12-14) nox player74: -does not detect words in all elements on the page -no examples of blocking specific elements, not everyone understands what is {.class} {#id-element}
- (2023-09-30) James Wheatley: It was really good, but now it seems as though the exclusion list doesn't work fully so it runs on ALL sites rather than just the sites I specify.

- (2022-08-29) t e: I've been really put much faith in this extension until today but stopped working on Chrome with the latest update applied. Apparently there are no extensions like this out there which allows us to hide any element on any site by just simply setting keywords in advance. It worked perfectly in most cases, helped me a ton, and special thanks go to the developer. I hope for updates to this extension in the future.
