Update manifest permissions to match medium url #22

Closed rtelicak closed 6 years ago

rtelicak commented 6 years ago

Hi! This if statement

if (document.querySelector('head meta[property="al:ios:app_name"][content="medium"]')) {
...
}

is no longer working, because they changed head meta tag to be ... content="Medium" .. (note the uppercase M), so the content script won't fire at all.

I've changed required permissions, its not good practice to ask permissions to all pages anyway.

Hey, thanks for catching this and submitting the pull request! The only problem is that this means the extension won't work on custom domain publications, like https://hackernoon.com/.

I know it's not the best to ask permission for all sites, but I think the solution suggested in #15 is the best way to go. Feel free to tackle that if you want!

Closing now. Best solution will be implementing #15.
