* Blocklist Information

Blocking Certain Pages

The optional blocklist can be used to prevent certain pages from receiving autonomous highlighting.

The list is comprised of hostnames, the addresses of specific pages, and/or match patterns.

Example Items

hostname www.dannyadam.com
address https://www.dannyadam.com/blog/2015/04/article-highlighter/
pattern *://*.dannyadam.com/blog/*

Blocking Exceptions

Exceptions override items on the blocklist, thus permitting autonomous highlighting for pages that would otherwise be blocked. The list of exceptions is comprised of hostnames, addresses, and/or patterns.

For example, suppose hostname www.dannyadam.com is an item on the blocklist, and pattern *://*.dannyadam.com/blog/* is included on the list of exceptions.

In that case, autonomous highlighting would be applied for https://www.dannyadam.com/blog/2015/04/article-highlighter/, since it matches an exception, even though it also matches a blocklist item.

Autonomous highlighting would not be applied for https://www.dannyadam.com/, since it matches a blocklist item, but not an exception.

Allowing Certain Pages

The blocklist is intended for preventing autonomous highlighting where it would not be applicable. Rather than blocking autonomous highlighting on certain pages, the blocklist can alternatively be used for allowing autonomous highlighting on certain pages.

To achieve this functionality, add pattern <all_urls> to the blocklist, and add items specifying allowed pages to the list of exceptions. This way, autonomous highlighting will be blocked by default on all pages, except for those that match the specified exceptions.

🌎 Global Highlighting

Click a highlighter to set the corresponding highlight level on every tab. This is applied once, upon clicking the highlighter. In certain cases, some tabs will not receive global highlighting (e.g., tabs that have been unloaded from memory).

🔐 Permissions

The button below can be used to revoke additional permissions that were granted for optional functionality (which will be subsequently disabled).
