The current KM Goanna cannot remove or edit a site in the permission manager ONCE it is added.
For example, if you ad a site abcxyz.com and set it to DENY JScripts or any thing, and pressed set button it be added in the pesmission.sqlite. BUT after that you cannnot remove or edit the same site again.
I have to edit this permission.sqlite in KM 7.5 to remove the site or so.
Pity, but thinking about... Younger KM-versions can handle
native Firefox-addons far better. That was just about impossible in the early days, und skilled devs adapted just a few important ones for KM.
Perhaps meanwhile the
original "ExExceptions" addon would work, after just adding the old domain-tweak? Am just not sure where to find those addons now, and a fitting version at that...
Dimly remember an old killer prob that FF-addons cannot fetch the current KM-page (and sadly that will remain forever?), but our old KM-ExEx had got a
little hack to read the domain from a pref instead. And this pref was filled by macro before opening ExEx... That tweak was a real tiny code change and could certainly be copied over again, even by yourself, just plain text, somewhere...
Over the years there were more ExEx-discussions in the forum here and there, could contain interesting information...
But perhaps yet simpler? Before fiddling with scripts, just try exchanging any
SQLITE files (if contained) from a slightly younger addon version. Or other of its files... (Cannot test myself, sorry)
Another thought:
Some native Gecko settings pages also work far better now, like
"about:preferences". Although if IIRC that's only for DEFAULT settings (dozens of prefs like "permissions.default.images"), but hopefully if you look around, perhaps can find some trace to more settings....
Page permissions are absolutely crucial, and this ExEx stuff is ultrasimple, all it does is editing a sqlite file, add or remove a few lines of text, all the rest is done by the engine itself. All this addon needs is getting a DOMAIN name transferred somehow, that surely must be possible.
Regarding the current prob again, old ExEx: wondering if it works at least to reset values to "-"?
That means "default", and that means this domain-line in the database gets removed. IF that works, then resetting all fields this way should make the whole domain vanish after next ExEx-start. But just a theory ;-)
EDIT: Just re-discovered it also has an Import-Export function at the bottom, for older hostperm.1 format, as plain-text list. No idea if that still works, and if that would be easier or not as workaround.
