Feature Rq: Appearance Option to show/hide "Block[...]" menu

Post by mamas6667 »

Appearance Option to show/hide "Block[...]" menu items

Reason: To avoid Blocking a site by mistake, also cleaner for some eyes.


I'm kind of a "Temporarily Allow" only user, I Allow or Block by hand.
+ Appearence Option to show/hide "Allow" menu items(thanks mamas6667)


Thks for nice Addon :-)
I read Joanna Rutkowska uses it too, I'm really impressed, congratulations m8

Doesn't unchecking Appearance|Show|Contextual menu|Allow work for you?

My mistake

Appearance|Show|Contextual menu|Forbid[...]

Is what I wanted as an option.

Not
Appearance|Show|Contextual menu|Block[...]


Thks again for prompt reply. and excellent Addon.

I'm a "Temporarily Allow" user too...
The "Options" > "Appearence" tab miss two elements which imho are needed to avoid to accidentally remove sites from Whitelist:

Forbid [...]
Temporarily forbid [...]

I would like to remove only temporarily allowed sites from my Whitelist, and not the other ones...
Is it possibile to do this?

You're right, it's odd that this one isn't explicitly listed. I'd say +1 but first I need to dig around in the code to see if/how it's tied to Allow & Temp-Allow menu items. Let me get back to you on this.

This makes no sense. NoScript is a seurity tool, and from a security perspective either you trust a site or you don't, there is no partial trust.
"Temporarily forbid" has no use security-wise.

Or are you looking for a separate option for "Forbid [...]" that only applies to Forbidding Temp-Allowed items? In which case, again, it's a useful option but I'll need to dig around in the code to give you a decent answer about it.

Yes, that is the "Revoke Temporary Permissions" option, both in NoScript menu and under NoScript Options > Whitelist.


EDIT
I've played around with it a bit, and it seems there is really no way to toggle the "Forbid [...]" menu entries off. In the mean time, it's probably possible to use a user style to get the desired effect:

Code: Select all

@namespace url(http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul);

/* this hides "temporarily allowed" forbids */
.noscript-temp.noscript-forbid {
  display:none ! important;
}

/* this hides "permanently allowed" forbids */
.noscript-forbid:not(.noscript-temp) {
  display:none ! important;
}
