I'm wondering if it's possible to disable the dropdown menu from appearing when I hover my pointer over the S! NoScript button. Instead, I would like the dropdown menu to only appear when I click the button.
I'm asking because on numerous occasions, I have accidentally marked a website as untrusted while moving my pointer around that general area. I have the NoScript icon on the top-right corner of my Firefox browser.
I am not a programmer, but I am comfortable editing code if that is what needs to be done to make this change.

Just uncheck NoScript Options>General>Open permissions menu when mouse hovers over NoScript's icon.

Wow, that was so easy! For whatever reason, I never noticed that option before. Thank you for such a fast response.Giorgio Maone wrote:Just uncheck NoScript Options>General>Open permissions menu when mouse hovers over NoScript's icon.

If you still wanted the dropdown, but did not want the Untrusted, you can do that too.
Options | Appearance -> Mark [...] as Untrusted (uncheck)

Another great piece of advice. Thanks! Is there a way to rearrange the order of the items in the dropdown too?therube wrote:If you still wanted the dropdown, but did not want the Untrusted, you can do that too.

(Also, how do I mark this thread as resolved? I see some other threads with that label.)

Unfortunately not, the best you can do is put your NoScript icon on the other side of your browser (which may not work).infria wrote:Is there a way to rearrange the order of the items in the dropdown too?
