I'm using latest version of both the browser and the extension. Now every time I close Firefox, NoScript forgets which sites I have trusted.

I've tried searching for a solution myself, and found something about needing to change the green lock to a red one. Tried this. No difference.

Any idea why my settings are being forgotten? It's driving me mad! I've had to disable NoScript for now so sites that need to be allowed can run as intended without having to allow everything again.

Are you making temp rules? (Clock visible?)

No. Always allow.

there is no "always allow" any more.

If you have 10.5.1
you set trusted rules with the translucent clock instead of the solid one
and you chose http or https accordingly (if not the rule should vanish on tab reload and not wait until FF gets restarted)

I think we will need some screenshots, because that is not how it currently behaves.

I'll have to try getting some screenshots tomorrow.

However, I have no reason to beleive that I've been setting it wrong. This problem starter after I had to restart Firefox with a fresh user profile and resintall all my addons. Up until then, settings for NoScript were being remembered after closing and restarting Firefox.

The problem is that from one version to another the "start" behaviour of the clock changed.
In 10.1.1 the behaviour was "rules are permanent unless made temporary"
Later it was changed to "rules are temporary unless changed to permanent.

Whether the clock was active/solid or inactive/transparent when you made a new rule changed.
That is basically the only "normal" thing that interfeers with rules keeping after a restart of the browser, instead of a reload of the tab.

Both the bugs interfering with the rule setting OR setting the wrong protocol (http https) manifested on reloading the tab. They didn't wait on a browser restart.

Okay, no need for screenshots. There was a slight difference between how setting pages as trusted works after I updated the browser and NoScript (it was the clock icon you mentioned), and I missed that at first. I know what I'm doing now, and the settings are being remembered after closing and reopening Firefox.

Thanks for your help.
