Are Trusted / Untrusted settings global?

Post by ppaker »

What I mean is:

1. I go to website wikipedia.org and trust domain adserver.com
2. I go to website askjeeves.com and it also has adserver.com

Will adserver.com be trusted on "askjeeves.com" as well?

If these settings are global, is there a way to trust / untrust "adserver.com" PER website?

Yes

Set adserver.com to CUSTOM in the NoScript popup, then you can configure its permissions in "ANY SITE" context and, separately, the context of the specific site you're on. You can't "directly" trust/untrust this way, but you can manually set the permissions identically to that (if you don't know what that would be, check NoScript Options > General for how you've configured TRUSTED and UNTRUSTED).
*Always* check the changelogs BEFORE updating that important software!

Thank you barbaz!
I didn't not realize that option existed.
I actually like it even better because I can tailor it exactly to accept or deny different capabilities as I see fit on any given domain for specific websites (or any).
