LeechBlockNG doesn't seem to work in Vivaldi browser #34

Closed tuket closed 3 years ago

tuket commented 3 years ago

Hello, Vivaldi is a chrome-based browser, so I installed LeechBlockNG from the Chrome Web Store. But webpages are not getting blocked. Do you think there is any chance this extension could work in Vivaldi? Thanks!

It used to work with Vivaldi, so I'm not sure why it wouldn't work now.

Export your settings to a text file (Options > General > Export Options to File) and email them to me (leechblockng@proginosko.com) so I can check there isn't a problem with your settings.

The settings I'm trying are very simple - just block youtube.com all days. I don't mind sharing my settings here: LeechBlockOptions.txt

Thanks for posting it here.

You need to specify either a time period or a time limit for the sites to be blocked. If you want to completely block YT, enter 0000-2400 for the time period.

Let us know if it works once you've done that.

Thanks for your reply. No, it doesn't work either.

proginosko commented 3 years ago

I don't use Vivaldi, so I won't be much help here. But if it has an error console, open it and see if any error messages appear when you access a site that ought to be blocked.

Thanks. Please clear the console, then visit youtube.com in a fresh tab, then post a screenshot of the console. I don't see any errors related to LB in the screenshot you posted, but I want to be sure.

Hi, I don't know what I was doing wrong but I got LeechBlock working now. I think it might have been due to having other extensions active. I have uninstalled a few, so I'm not sure exactly which one might have been. Thanks for your help!

Okay, good! Feel free to reopen this issue if you have problems again.
