This has been fixed now. If you have FBP v14 installed already, but this option is not working for you, clear your browser cache *then* re-install FBP, as this fix was added a few days after the initial release.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Whats New in FBP 14.0:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Added: Hide<\/strong> &#8220;<strong>Sale Groups<\/strong>&#8221; option under the &#8220;<strong>Hide Links in Left Column<\/strong>&#8221; heading on FBP options screen.

Once that is done, install the new version of FBP, then go to the Options screen and Import the settings you saved previously, via the &#8220;<strong>Import Settings<\/strong>&#8221; link.<\/p>\n<p>If you previously installed <strong>FF ESR<\/strong> to get FBP working properly again, you can either stick with that version of Firefox if you prefer it, or you can now update to the latest version of Firefox, by simply\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.mozilla.org\/en-US\/firefox\/new\/\" target=\"_blank\">Downloading the latest version of Firefox<\/a>\u00a0 and installing it directly over the FF ESR installation. This should preserve all your bookmarks, settings, extensions, profiles etc. If you switched to the GM script version of FBP to get FBP working again when FF43 was released, again you can either stick with that, or disable that and go back to the extension version of FBP, its up to you.<\/p>\n<p>Its also worth noting that if you turned off the &#8220;<strong>xpinstall.signatures.required<\/strong>&#8221; setting in Firefox previously, you can turn it back on after installing FBP v14, now that FBP is signed.<\/p>\n<p>One last piece of Firefox related news. Although I can&#8217;t support users who use Alpha\/Beta\/Dev\/ versions of browsers, if you do want to get FBP running in the latest Firefox Dev or Nightly versions of FF with Electrolysis turned on, you should know that the current version of the FBP extension does not work under Electrolysis, but it seems the GM script version of FBP does work fine in the latest FF Nightly builds with Electrolysis turned on. It didn&#8217;t work too great in the Dev version when i tried it, but I&#8217;m sure it will catch up with the Nightly version soon.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Other FBP \u00a0Related\u00a0News<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Facebook has been showing a box in the newsfeed recently asking for &#8220;Feedback&#8221; that looks like this:<\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 507px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"  src=\"https:\/\/s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com\/736x\/25\/6a\/69\/256a69ac148425eec7a35a15ebad2e35.jpg\" alt=\"We'd like to improve your Facebook experience. \" width=\"497\" height=\"153\" \/><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">The &#8220;We&#8217;d like to improve your Facebook experience&#8221; box<\/p><\/div>\n<p>If you are fed up of clicking the hide this post menu item under the chevron in the top right corner, and seeing it keep re-appearing.

If that doesn&#8217;t work, you will need to install via the drag and drop method explained on the install page. Or another way to do it would be to export your settings via the FBP options screen, then remove the existing version of FBP via the extensions management page, then goto the install page and install fbp by clicking the green button. Then once its installed, import your settings again.<\/p>\n<p>If you wish to support <strong>FB Purity<\/strong>, <strong><a title=\"Donate to support the FB Purity project.\" href=\"http:\/\/donate.fbpurity.com\/\">please Donate<\/a><\/strong> to ensure the continuation of this project.
