scott 2016/11/24 11:40:32 For consistency here, we should always have the sa For consistency here, we should always have the same way to access the extension. For example, with the situation given here in Maxthon, if the user has the extension disabled, then there would not be any ABP icon for them to select. In addition to this, some browsers allow hiding of icons in the extensions bar, so it's safer for the user to navigate to the extensions page from within the browser menu first. In Maxthon 5+ the steps are as follows: Select the Options Menu from the top right Select Tools Select Extensions Philip Hill 2016/11/25 07:21:36 Good points.

I guess we could do this, but then we just add more content to the help centre. If creating more content isn't an issue, then we could just link that in-between the first and second step.

I'd prefer to leave it as the "long > way." Since this is a common issue on many platforms, I wonder if we should crosslink to the ABP icon hiding article with smtg like "What if I don't see the ABP icon" from every such text, otherwise we take the user to a detour in all cases or leave him searching for this issue himself.
