[RESOLVED] Show messages about blocked scripts on status bar

Post by piercedfreak »

I swear I had NoScript showing messages about blocked pages/scripts on the status bar before I updated, now I can not get it to do that. I can just the the icon to appear on the status bar, and have to mouse over to see the status of the scripts on the page. I tried creating a new profile in Firefox, and still can not get it to act the way I prefer. Did it change, or did I screw something up?

NoScript 5.1.1
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64; rv:56.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/56.0

EDIT: I can get it to show the messages, but they are not on the status bar, but above it. Instead of just the icon, it would say 'scripts blocked' or something on my status bar next to the icon, and I could mouse over to see which scripts were blocked, and allow them.

That is close to what I had before, but it was on the status bar, not its own bar.

NoScript Options > Appearance, check "Status bar label"
*Always* check the changelogs BEFORE updating that important software!

Same here - since a week or so no more message on status bar. May be in correlation with FF update to FF ESR 52.4, but not for shure.

Sorry, you're talking about status bars on Firefox 52 and above, right? How are you enabling it (it shouldn't be there on vanilla Firefox), any extension?

I use Status-4-Evar, and have been using it for quite some time with no problems.

EDIT: The only thing that I changed was updating NoScript.
