How do we add to the whitelist

Post by Tripler »

Hi! I've been using NoScript for a long time, but with this latest update I cannot find how to add sites to the whitelist. There is no easy way to add to the whitelist. . .

For argument, I want to add sites like cnn.com, fark.com, etc. But I cannot find the feature in the menu where to add top level sites.

Any help?

1) Open NoScript Options

2) In "Search or add a web site:", type cnn.com

3) Click the + button

Funny thing, I just did that and noticed after I went to the specific website I whitelisted, the NS extension couldn't be clicked no longer on that site. The NS icon doesn't even get highlighted. Can anyone reproduce that bug?

Did you visit the site in the same tab as the NoScript Options page was opened in?

Yes, you are right! I was baffled and felt a little silly yesterday when, after posting this, I couldn't reproduce that in a different tab again. But now that you mention it, it seems like this is the reason.
