Option to temporarily disable the extension?
Not sure if this is a "how to" question or a feature request, but I'd like to easily temporarily disable this extension, so I could allow a site to add a search engine as an intentional action (it's a useful feature of Chrome, just not sure why Google allows anyone to stick a search engine in your browser).
Is this possible right now? If so - how? It's not immediately discoverable.
If it's not possible, is it difficult? Please consider it for a future version.
Thanks!
Right now, the only ways are to add the search engine manually, or to:
- Disable the extension from
chrome://extensions
- Do a search on the site in question
- Re-enable the extension from
chrome://extensions
There is work underway to add whitelisting - see #28 .
@clunkclunk FWIW I use the Chrome extension Extensity to quickly enable/disable extensions.
