Instalation error

Couldn't install the extension from the extensions.gnome.org.

But for some reason, extension settings is working fine.

Oh, I guess the error is related with browser. You can try to clone my repo and install it manually.

git clone https://github.com/sunwxg/gnome-shell-extension-unblank.git
cd gnome-shell-extension-unblank
make install

restart PC or logout and login.

still not working. :/

[sunwxg]

Oh! Could you show me your journal log(hope your OS works with systemd)

sudo journalctl -b

Using Ubuntu 18.04 here. I'll run it.

I think I might be running into the same issue. (Ubuntu 18.04 and neither manual nor Firefox installs work) The error I'm getting in gnome-shell is:

That property was defined with 'let' or 'const' inside the module. This was previously supported, but is not correct according to the ES6 standard. Any symbols to be exported from a module must be defined with 'var'. The property access will work as previously for the time being, but please fix your code anyway.

^ The last line seems to be what it's bailing out on.

I am getting the same issue. When this will be fixed? I am using ubuntu 18.04

I'm also getting this issue. I think it's because I'm using lightdm the same as https://github.com/BigE/desk-changer/issues/31 and https://github.com/zpydr/gnome-shell-extension-taskbar/issues/97 I would fix it myself but I'm not sure how or where to start.

Sorry, this extension fully depends on the Main.screenShield logic, It can't support Main.screenShield is null.
