[INVALID] NoScript breaks imgur.com when blocking Flash

[DavidCG]

I use NoScript to block Flash with 'Forbid Flash' and 'Apply these restrictions to whitelisted sites'. With these settings selected the upload facility at http://imgur.com/ does not work. Can anyone suggest a solution - other than not blocking Flash, which I want to do for all sites?

[Giorgio Maone]

Blocked Objects submenu, Temporarily Allow *@http://imgur.com?

[DavidCG]

Thanks, Giorgio but that does not fix the problem. Any other suggestions?

I use imgur a lot so this is a nuisance for me. If there is no solution within NoScript, I will maybe use FlashBlock instead and always allow Flash in NoScript.

[Giorgio Maone]

Again, it works just fine for me, so it must be something else in your case.
Please try:

1. Using NoScript Options|Reset
2. Checking "Apply these restrictions to whitelisted sites as well"
3. Allow imgur.com and googleapis.com
4. Use Blocked Objects|Allow *@http://imgur.com

Should that not help, trying disabling all your extensions except NoScript.

[DavidCG]

OK, it was not clear from your first reply that it worked you.

I installed NoScript in to a new, clean profile. I added imgur.com and googleapis.com to whitelist. I selected Blocked Objects -> Temporarily Allow *@http://imgur.com. The problem is still there for me.

I should have mentioned that I'm using latest 3.7 Minefield - if that makes any difference?

Here are my settings if you want to check them:

Thanks for your help.

I found the solution: it was Adblock. Once I disabled it, the problem was solved.
