Extension installs but does not execute [Chrome] #58

Open elle-vee opened 4 years ago

elle-vee commented 4 years ago

I'm running Chrome on Mac Catalina; the extension installed without issue, but when I attempt to run, export, or import block chain, if Chrome is open to the Twitter.com domain, the only response is for the selected button to change colors—I never get the pop-up window that I understand should appear while the extension is running (and I've enabled pop-ups, disabled my ad-blocker, and enabled every other permission I can think of).

I've checked the receipts and confirmed that I have zero blocked users, despite attempting to run blockchains on accounts with both large (>100,000) and small (<200) follower counts. I have been able to successfully add protected users, though.

As long as I've navigated to a page within twitter's domain, the response (change of color) is the same, even if the page is not a twitter following or followers page—so if I have the browser open to Twitter's home page or my notification page, I still get a change of color. If I am on a website outside of twitter's domain, however, I do get the expected/correct response ("Navigate to a twitter following or followers page.")

Thanks in advance for any advice/support you can offer. FWIW, my issue seems similar to #47 and possibly #49

Having the same issue. Installed. Went to "followers" page. Clicked extension. Clicked "run". The button changed color slightly, and then nothing at all happened. Double checked to make sure popups were allowed and still nothing.
ETA right after I did this I closed chrome and reopened, and it worked. maybe a restart/refresh was all that was needed.
