[RESOLVED] Migrating to new version

Post by Luigi »

Hi,
I've just upgraded from Firefox 52 ESR to 59 and therefore to the new noscript.
The OS installation is a fresh one and I simply copied the firefox profile folder; thing is, the noscript settings are gone. Perhaps they're saved somewhere I haven't checked?

Automatic migration through hybrid WebExtensions (like NoScript 5 -> 10 has been designed) works only if you upgrade from 52 to 57 organically. Jumping to 59 by copying a new profile has never been tested, and I suspect won't work.
One thing you can do is using the Export button on NoScript 5 and thein the Import button on NoScript 10, as the latter's import functionality has been developed to be compatible with old export files.

Thanks, exporting and importing did the trick.
