[RESOLVED] NoScript breaks Disqus, even with Allow Globally

Post by Jake Swenson »

Salutations,
Recently NoScript has almost completely blocked embedded Disqus forums across all known sites.
Prior, and with increasing frequency, NoScript would allow Disqus, but generated frequent XSS warnings.
Now it does now allow any Disqus use at all, even with "Allow Scripts Globally" enabled.
I upgraded to version 5.0RC2, same behavior.
Disabling the NoScript addon entirely restores Disqus functions (and is scary).

Thank you for you help in this matter.

When this issue occurs, do you see anything related in the Browser Console? (Ctrl-Shift-J)
(if you don't know what's related, turn off CSS warnings and post everything else you see)
*Always* check the changelogs BEFORE updating that important software!

I saw in another thread to add a ClearClick exception for .disqus.com, this did not seem to help.

Checked the Browser Console and found the following messages while attempting to use embedded Disqus:

Code: Select all

If I turn off ClearClick in Options, Disqus resumes working.

Ahh, I had the domain added in "exceptions", moved it to "subexceptions" and all is well again!
Thank you.

PS your support rules.
