[FIXED] The new import feature doesn't import whitelists (?)

The import button which has returned in one of the most recent updates doesn't seem to be working with whitelists from old versions unless I am missing something. I import a whitelist from the October 2017 version of NoScript and the page refreshes without changing anything on the list. Is this the intended behaviour? What am I doing wrong?

Thanks.

Thank you for the suggestion. It appears that all the whitelists I saved over the years were not simple URL lists but "NoScript settings + whitelists". After trying the suggestion here, I managed to get it working:

That is, apparently the content of the text file has to simply be:
Code: Select all
"whitelist":"something.com etc.org ................... ",

Actually NoScript 10 should be able to import also full NoScript 5 preferences JSON exports like yours, so I'm still interested to see what's wrong with it.
OTHO, "whitelist-only" imports just need to be space (or newline) separated list of URL/domains (possibly followed by an [UNTRUSTED] section with the legacy "blacklist").

A bug preventing some JSON exports from NoScript "classic" to be imported has been fixed in
10.1.6.2rc2 thanks to the file the OP emailed me today

I can confirm, Import is working again.
