How ElementHider works

Keyword filters, point-and-click element hiding, topic groups, and backup export/import.

Keyword, Phrase & Regexp Hiding

Type any word, exact phrase, or regular expression. ElementHider matches content as the page loads and hides the surrounding container cleanly.

Case-insensitive Domain-specific rules Adjustable reach depth

Point-and-Click Eraser

Click any element on a page (such as sticky headers, cookie banners, or sidebars) to hide it on that domain. Try clicking the sample elements below:

Newsletter subscription banner
Click to hide
Sticky promotional sidebar widget
Click to hide

On-Device Smart Learning

Finds co-occurring spoiler terms ("leaked ending", "post-credit twist") based on your active rules, processed locally in your browser with no external server calls.

One-Click Topic Groups

Organize keywords into groups like "TV Spoilers" or "Premier League", mute whole topics in one click, and export or import lists via compact share codes.
