NoScript is not preserving permissions between sessions

Post by Endorphinity »

I've noticed that NoScript 10.1.6.1 is not preserving site permissions between Firefox 57.0.3 launches. This is true for some sites, while for others my permissions are preserved as expected. How can I fix this?

Have you clicked on the clock that says "temporary allow" when you mouseover?

No, why should I? I need permanent permissions. And they work, but only within one Firefox session. After quit and re-launch they are lost.

Didn't you just answer your own question?

When setting a site to Trusted, that clock is enabled by default. i.e. the permission is temporary by default. Click the clock to deactivate it and make the permission permanent.
*Always* check the changelogs BEFORE updating that important software!

Thanks a lot. I just didn't notice that clock right away ;) . I realize though, that it is really a hard task for the developer to create an easy to use UI in such a restricted space.

Beta 10.1.6.2rc1 introduces a separate button for Temporary trusted. So, in the near future you can pretty much forget about clocks, they ll apply only to the Custom preset. You can install the beta now if you like.
