Blacklisting does not work

See original GitHub issue

I’m opening this issue because:

  • I’ll report a bug
  • I’ll propose a new feature

Description

Even after blacklisting https://duckduckgo.com/, I still have Vim Vixen extension enabled. I can use Shift + Esc to disable it, but it is not permanent. I have seen a similar Issue saying you have to restart the browser in order for the settings to apply, but it doesn’t work for me.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Add "blacklist": [ "https://duckduckgo.com/" ] to the JSON
  2. Go to https://duckduckgo.com/
  3. The Vim-like shortcuts provided by DuckDuckGo does not work anymore. To make them work again, press Shift + Esc

System configuration

  • Operating system: Ubuntu 19.10
  • Firefox version: 73.0
  • Vim-Vixen version: 0.27

Firefox 75.0 on Linux, I was struggling with this as well, however it seems like the solution is not to include the protocol and just type the FQDN, so:

  • github.com
  • www.google.com

I had similar issues. For me it turned out that I had to remove the https:// and more importantly end with a * to clarify that I want the blacklist entry to be valid for the whole domain.

For Gmail I use: "blacklist": ["mail.google.com/*"]

This requires at least a reload of the page. You can verify that the changes in the JSON are implemented by testing to switch some function. For example toggle smooth scrolling to verify its functionality "smoothscroll": true,.
