Sudden UI Change #93

Closed krathalan closed 5 years ago

krathalan commented 5 years ago

Expected behavior

I expected the UI to not change without an update. I checked, and the last update was on August 7, 2017, so there's no way that an update could have changed it.

Actual behavior

The UI is styled differently, and Request Control refuses to accept or parse exceptions to rules. For example, on a lot of my rules, I have exceptions to not filter when the current URL contains "signin", "sign-in", etc. so as to not disturb sign in redirects. I also have exceptions that prevent sites from breaking in other ways.

Despite having exceptions in my imported rules file, Request Control doesn't seem to load them, display them, allow me to edit them, or recognize them. Because of this, several websites now break for me with Request Control enabled.

Steps to reproduce the problem

Here's a screenshot showing the strange UI with no exceptions box:

Edit: uninstalling and reinstalling the addon has no effect. I also experience this issue on a completely separate profile under a different user on my computer.

@tumpio You may have to contact Mozilla about this. The latest versions went missing - https://addons.mozilla.org/addon/requestcontrol/versions/

Some add-on review issue after 6 months from the release. Nice!

From 1.10 onward, I'm using tldjs library, and I haven't specially mentioned which version I'm using (its the latest 2.3.1). I'll release it to AMO, and add the note for it..

Checked for updates just now and RC updated to 1.11.2 and everything seems to be back to normal. Thanks!
