Blacklisting does not work

[Math3mat1x]

I'm opening this issue because:

• [x] 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

I'm having the same problem with gmail. Here's how I blacklist:

  "blacklist": [
    "mail.google.com"
  ]

It stopped working recently (presumably after upgraded to 0.27)

Thanks for all the hard work. It's an essential plugin for me!

Umm... I cannot reproduce it. Restarting your browser might fix the issue (see https://github.com/ueokande/vim-vixen/issues/718#issuecomment-590107916). Please try it.

I confirm that restarting the browser fixed the problem for me. And I'm on Mac OS.

This method doesn't work for me, here's my full JSON: { "keymaps": { "0": { "type": "scroll.home" }, ":": { "type": "command.show" }, "o": { "type": "command.show.open", "alter": false }, "O": { "type": "command.show.open", "alter": true }, "t": { "type": "command.show.tabopen", "alter": false }, "T": { "type": "command.show.tabopen", "alter": true }, "w": { "type": "command.show.winopen", "alter": false }, "W": { "type": "command.show.winopen", "alter": true }, "b": { "type": "command.show.buffer" }, "a": { "type": "command.show.addbookmark", "alter": true }, "k": { "type": "scroll.vertically", "count": -1 }, "j": { "type": "scroll.vertically", "count": 1 }, "h": { "type": "scroll.horizonally", "count": -1 }, "l": { "type": "scroll.horizonally", "count": 1 }, "<C-U>": { "type": "scroll.pages", "count": -0.5 }, "<C-D>": { "type": "scroll.pages", "count": 0.5 }, "<C-B>": { "type": "scroll.pages", "count": -1 }, "<C-F>": { "type": "scroll.pages", "count": 1 }, "gg": { "type": "scroll.top" }, "G": { "type": "scroll.bottom" }, "$": { "type": "scroll.end" }, "d": { "type": "tabs.close", "select": "right" }, "D": { "type": "tabs.close", "select": "left" }, "x$": { "type": "tabs.close.right" }, "!d": { "type": "tabs.close.force" }, "u": { "type": "tabs.reopen" }, "gT": { "type": "tabs.prev" }, "gt": { "type": "tabs.next" }, "g0": { "type": "tabs.first" }, "g$": { "type": "tabs.last" }, "<C-6>": { "type": "tabs.prevsel" }, "r": { "type": "tabs.reload", "cache": false }, "R": { "type": "tabs.reload", "cache": true }, "zp": { "type": "tabs.pin.toggle" }, "zd": { "type": "tabs.duplicate" }, "zi": { "type": "zoom.in" }, "zo": { "type": "zoom.out" }, "zz": { "type": "zoom.neutral" }, "f": { "type": "follow.start", "newTab": false, "background": true }, "F": { "type": "follow.start", "newTab": true, "background": false }, "m": { "type": "mark.set.prefix" }, "'": { "type": "mark.jump.prefix" }, "H": { "type": "navigate.history.prev" }, "L": { "type": "navigate.history.next" }, "[[": { "type": "navigate.link.prev" }, "]]": { "type": "navigate.link.next" }, "gu": { "type": "navigate.parent" }, "gU": { "type": "navigate.root" }, "gi": { "type": "focus.input" }, "gf": { "type": "page.source" }, "gh": { "type": "page.home", "newTab": false }, "gH": { "type": "page.home", "newTab": true }, "y": { "type": "urls.yank" }, "p": { "type": "urls.paste", "newTab": false }, "P": { "type": "urls.paste", "newTab": true }, "/": { "type": "find.start" }, "n": { "type": "find.next" }, "N": { "type": "find.prev" }, ".": { "type": "repeat.last" }, "<S-Esc>": { "type": "addon.toggle.enabled" } }, "search": { "default": "duckduckgo", "engines": { "google": "https://google.com/search?q={}", "yahoo": "https://search.yahoo.com/search?p={}", "bing": "https://www.bing.com/search?q={}", "duckduckgo": "https://duckduckgo.com/?q={}", "twitter": "https://twitter.com/search?q={}", "wikipedia": "https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?search={}" } }, "properties": { "hintchars": "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz", "smoothscroll": false, "complete": "sbh" }, "blacklist": [ "https://duckduckgo.com/" ] } I even deleted my old profile and tried from a vanilla Firefox, this doesn't fix the issue. Vim-Vixen 0.27 is not blacklisting on Firefox 73.0 (Ubuntu 19.10).

Another guy have this issue (https://addons.mozilla.org/fr/firefox/addon/vim-vixen/reviews/):

Forgot to mention that I'm on Mac and restart fixed the problem. I'm using latest Firefox 73.0.1

[hnnazm]

I have the same problem and already try restart. I'm on Mac , Firefox 74.0

[rvolosatovs]

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

[chunga2020]

Firefox 75.0, Ubuntu 20.04. Also having this problem. You can find my config JSON here. Smooth scrolling and hint chars work as expected, but not blacklisting. Tried restarting my browser, to no avail. Also tried @rvolosatovs's solution of excluding the protocol. That didn't work either. Using Shift-Esc to turn off the plugin altogether does work, though I'd like it if I didn't have to resort to that.

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:

This worked for me in Firefox 76, Ubuntu 20.04.

[chunga2020]

@nullobject Ah, confirmed. I was neglecting the www part of the FQDN

[hanzhaogang]

I have the smae issue for mail.qq.com. WIndows 10+ firefox 83.0

[demiaus]

I have the same issue, Ubuntu 18.04, FF 84.0.2. Tried with and without protocol, with and without 'www', and restarting browser.

[PolyMMA]

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,.

It didn't work for me before, but it works now:

"blacklist": [
    "mail.google.com"
  ]
