Excuse my ignorance, but can someone please provide information on to get a block list working on the latest version. I have read the threads but have no idea how to delete the ~/.config/deluge/blocklist.conf as suggested in the post viewtopic.php?f=8&t=1139 I am not sure where the conf. file is located therefore I have no hope of deleting it. I know how to get the conf. file through gedit, but still need help deleting it. I don't think just removing the file contents is enough.
A step by step answer would be good. I am using feisty fawn.
Thankyou to anyone who can point me in the right direction.

Thanks for the reply. I had already seen that thread. I have now removed the ~/.config/deluge/blocklist.conf (well at least it is empty). I am unsure where I am meant to insert the blocklist. I have searched to /share/deluge/plugins/blocklist import and can see a number of files including the nipfilter.dat.gz. i have attached a screenshot. Would you be kind enough to tell what to do next. Thank you loki.

Please disregard the last post, it didn't work initially, but I have just opened deluge again and the blocklist has appeared. Thanks again for your help. (I think I had it right when I deleted the text in the gedit list, but it seems to take a few minutes before it appears).

~ refers to the active users home directory. If you login with 'sickofit' and you use a Linux system, ~ would point to /home/sickofit.
rm /home/sickofit/.config/deluge/blocklist.conf
or
rm ~/.config/deluge/blocklist.conf
Either does the same thing.
