Note for Chrome users wishing to update to the latest version of FBP.
Now that FBP is back in the Chrome Webstore, if you have installed the FBP Chrome extension via the “Inline Install” method (by clicking the green “Install F.B. Purity” button on the FBP Install page) or directly via the Chrome Webstore, you should now receive automatic updates, though you can force an update by turning on “Developer Mode” on the Chrome extensions management page, then clicking the “Update Extensions Now” button (make sure you don’t have any facebook tabs open, so Chrome can unload the existing version first).
Please note at present if you search for “F.B. Purity” on the Chrome Webstore, there are 2 fake copies of F.B. Purity also showing up in the search results, In order to let people know which is the safe and real version, please leave a 5* review for the real F.B. Purity in the Chrome Webstore

I haven`t found an answer hot to hide “Page Stories You May Like” nuisance…
If you have FBP’s hide “sponsored box / posts” option ticked, as well as hiding all newsfeed ads, it should also hide the “Page Stories You May Like” box that appears in the Newsfeed
No, that doesn’t work and I don’t want to update Purity because it loses all my settings and I have to start again. How do I hide Page Stories You May Like properly?
the latest update fixes this
I have the “sponsored box / posts” option ticked, as well as “recent ad activity” (which is the only thing I’ve seen about ads) and I still see the “Page Stories You Might Like” in my newsfeed. I see no “hide all newsfeed ads” option and I’ve gone over the entire list several times.
the latest update fixes this
Not working for me. It’s ticked but “Page Stories You May Like” keeps appearing.
