Since Quantum, most of the time, when I make a custom setting for a site, NoScript ignores the setting. It seems reasonably likely that this happens only for sites that were allowed in the previous version. As soon as I hit refresh, it shows the site as Default, not Custom, but if I go into NoScript Options, I see the Custom settings I selected. NoScript is just ignoring them. Uninstalling, closing browser, then reinstalling did not help. The development build did not help. Perhaps a corruption in Options persists through reinstalling? If so, how can I get rid of NoScript data and start from scratch? I do want to keep the default white list. I just want to get rid my personal settings, because they appear to be causing problems. Now that we can control script and fetch separately--or if we could before, I didn't know--I rather like the idea of starting over.

On this site, for posting this message, Custom worked. I had to allow scripts so I could see the confirmation code. This is actually what led me to realize that it's probably sites that I allowed in previous versions that are not working in Quantum.

The probable reason for this is: you used the green padlock for http-only websites. You would need to set it to red for those which then would allow loading scripts etc. for http + https URLs. This very site here uses https which is why Custom worked for you.

Thanks. That was it. I didn't get that the padlock ~controlled the other settings. I hindsight though, I see that's the only thing that makes sense.
