bookmarklets don't work #4

Open dnr opened 4 years ago

dnr commented 4 years ago

Describe the bug I'm trying to use this extension for access to my bookmarklets without having the bookmark bar open all the time, but bookmarklets (bookmarks with javascript: urls) don't work.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Put a bookmarklet in your bookmarks. Some of my favorites are here and here
  2. Go to a page.
  3. Click the extension icon and then click on a bookmarklet.

Expected behavior I expect the bookmarklet to work.

Observed behavior Nothing happens. No console messages appear for either the web page or extension background page.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

I' m not sure if extensions have the ability to execute all kinds of bookmarklets code on web pages. I'll test it later. And now I am working on the new 0.6 version of this extension, the build environment of v0.5 has broken. I'll try to fix this problem in v0.6. It may take some time. If you find any other good alternatives, please don't hesitate to use them instead first.

I tried two similar extensions and they didn't work either, unfortunately. One of them claimed to support bookmarklets, so I suspect it might be a fairly recent Chrome security change.

I think this one has the best design and I'd prefer to use it.
