Problems with Facebook Bookmarks - Declared as "dead" - Allow whitelisting of domains #213

Closed pstein closed 1 year ago

pstein commented 1 year ago

As I found out BO declares a lot (all ?) bookmarks from facebook.com as dead (red dot) although they are accessible. Example:

https://www.facebook.com/qbar.aschaffenburg1/?locale=de_DE

I am currently not logged in in Facebook. And I don't want to login just to run BO. BO should recognize these facebook URLs as alive.

I think this is a bug.

At least I would like to have an option to whitelist whole domains. Otherwise my result list is stuffed with invalid facebook alerts

Can this be added in the next release?

Thank you

Starting with Bookmarks Organizer 4.1 bookmarks for facebook.com will no longer be checked because Facebook prevents it. A solution would be to override the Access-Control-Allow-Origin response header but this is currently not allowed for Manifest v3 extensions. Should this be allowed in the future something like that will be implemented.
