[Resolved] How do I whitelist a protocol?

I have turned on the feature to block components on allowed sites in order to get Flash and Silverlight blocking through Noscript. However, it also catches Font and Mediasource protocols, which I don't mind being generally allowed. Currently, I only seem to have the option to temporarily allow those protocols, and for specific sites. Is there a quick way to whitelist those protocols entirely? When I try in the Options, it doesn't seem to like my syntax, as it won't let me make the entry.

mediasource: looks to be permanently whitelisted?
Fonts.
NoScript | Options | Embeddings -> Forbid @font-face.
(Or you may have a similar Pref set in FF itself?)

FONT is not a protocol, and mediasource is a pseudo-protocol
You have to edit about:config >
noscript.allowedMimeRegExp
or go to NoScript Options > Embeddings, un-check "Apply these restrictions to whitelisted sites too"

I had to wipe and clean install to get the version that had the mediasource whitelisted. Not sure why.
As for fonts, can't believe I missed that. Thanks! How do I mark this resolved?

You can't since you aren't registered and as such can't edit posts, but I will for you. Thanks for reporting back
