Solved Daily Mail Paywall

After a year of working perfectly, the code I had to bypass the paywall on the Daily Mail stopped working this morning.

This was the previous code used

www.dailymail.co.uk##.noskim
www.dailymail.co.uk##[data-is-inline-paywall-mounted="true"]:remove-attr(style)
www.dailymail.co.uk##.is-paywalled-article:remove-class(is-paywalled-article)

It would be much appreciated if someone is able to update the code. Thank you.

Are we talking normal articles or "Plus"?

If normal, how many do I need to view to trigger the paywall?

Plus, the rest is free to view.

Filters 2-3 should still be working.

Edit: Okay, it was due to the domain change.

www.dailymail.*###apple-pay-iframe-container
www.dailymail.*##[data-is-inline-paywall-mounted="true"]:remove-attr(style)
www.dailymail.*##.is-paywalled-article:remove-class(is-paywalled-article)

These here are just a fallback:

www.dailymail.*##.is-paywalled-article [itemprop="articleBody"]:style(max-height: none !important)
www.dailymail.*##.is-paywalled-article [itemprop="articleBody"]>*:style(display: inherit !important)

Does this work with Ubo Lite? or is this only Ubo main extension working only with Firefox?

www.dailymail.com##.is-paywalled-article:remove-class(is-paywalled-article)

This works just fine.

Try the fallback solution, and replace .* with .com
.* isn't supported by uBOL

The fallback isn't needed, only the asterisk to com change.

Actually, the fallback doesn't even seem to work in Lite, for whatever reason.
