After allowing "Vimeo", VimeoCDN needs allowing but NS doesn't show it does

Post by MusicGuy »

Hi,

Thanks for having this plugin, it's great!

One thing I did notice though was when I go to a site that has an embedded video from Vimeo that I have to temp allow Vimeo, then the page loads like normal after allowing something and then more loads (in this case VimeoCDN), but unlike normal there is no red or numbers on the little NoScript button up in the toolbar as there were before I allowed Vimeo.

So, I would assume a lot of people would think the video's just not working as it's just a blurry picture of the video that only goes to clear looking and being able to be played once I go to the NS button, click it and allow VimeoCDN, but since it doesn't tell me something new popped up needing a decision to allow or not like with a lot of other sites and content, I would guess most or many people won't think they need to allow something else and will skip the video or leave whatever site they are on.

I hope that makes sense.

Thanks again!

Peace.

Hi,

Sorry for not including it and sorry for the delay in responding.

Here's a page where that happens...

Thanks.

So you allow vimeo.
Then you allow abetterworldwithsteveandmusic.

At that point, the icon shows no "numbers", & its white.

Confirmed.

And based upon that, one might assume there is nothing more to allow.
But in fact, at that point, vimeocdn is there, silently, if you will.
And the video won't play without it.
