- Rated 3 out of 5by ExplodingCore, 7 years agoOne of the most important add-ons!
I miss the old design, although I have to say the new one gets better and better with each update.
Unfortunately there is a bug in the latest version. Every single time you click the NoScript Button, Firefox is forced to windowed mode. Very annoying.
Otherwise 5* - Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 13546349, 7 years agoGuess I'm going back to FF56. FF57 has to many bugs. Giorgio please tell Mozilla speed over quality is how nobody will update.

- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 13541802, 7 years agoFor people having problems with NoScript blocking sites even when they are trusted: I found that removing the add-on completely (rather than disabling it), restarting firefox and then reinstalling the add-on fixed this for me. Sites now appear to respect the settings I select in NoScript. I guess this is something to do with needing to request the proper permissions from firefox, and NoScript is perhaps failing to do this for people who updated automatically?
In any event, the new GUI is a bit of a mess. I don't think I'd have any clue how to use the current version if I hadn't seen the old version and knew that I was expecting to choose between permanently or temporarily allowing scripts etc. Words are always better unless you're expecting your users to be using an icon almost constantly. - Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 13540287, 7 years agoHaving used NoScript for several years and never having supported makes it a a bit difficult for me to give it one star, hence the three. My situation is the same as reported by many others, the UI is just over-complicated, not all scripts show on the list, when I (de-)authorize scripts often the page does not reload and the problems continue. I had to disable it yesterday after giving it a try for 1+ weeks, but I sincerely hope that this returns to what it used to be - one of my TOP5 security/privacy apps for FF.
- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 13538993, 7 years agoThis really was a must have for all users of Mozilla, I had been using this add-on several years ago, and it help me to block a lot of trash content like banners, pop-up windows, etc. However, since the last update of the web browser (57), this does not work anymore, blocks everything, and is hard to understand how it works.
I know all the hard work of the developer to keep running this add-on, and I know this is not your fault, but please, make it work again, no pressure. Your app was really good!!! - Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 13538904, 7 years ago#### How I fixed the last noscript problem on Firefox Quantum.
Note: Before considering using this fix, **backup your important Firefox data, such as bookmarks, etc. just in case.**
1st. I went to about:support and I clicked on “Refresh Firefox”. **Watch out, this will remove your default Firefox settings and add-ons.** Once you do this, you have to start from scratch.
2nd. I went to about:addons and I told Firefox not to automatically update add-ons.
3rd. I installed the first noscript version for Firefox Quantum from noscript repositories:
https://secure.informaction.com/download/releases/noscript-10.1.1.xpi
4th. I installed the rest of the add-ons I used to have before. - Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 12511656, 7 years ago11/28/2017
At this time it seems to Still be having a few problems..
I love this program and so do my friends. It has Many good uses for protection.
Problem Im having is that it ports ?? scripts but Does not SHOW all of them to be OK'd or Blocked.
It really sucks when Im trying to do online bills and Banking..I cant see that 1-2 scripts to allow the page..
(pages generally with FLASH).. - Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 13190973, 7 years agoold one was good, but this version seems to be slower and freezes sometimes, not like the old one. also, every time i open firefox i get a pop-box from no-script that is blank that i have to keep closing which is annoying. i disabled for now.
- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 13537236, 7 years agoIt was my favorite addon until now. It absolutely unusable. New interface is terrible. Old was userfriendly and simple. Even if i add some resource to witelist - i have problems. Addon just break look and behaviour of site. SHIT
- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 13495719, 7 years agoWell, I must say, I used to love it. But the new version is not so easy to handle anymore. Sad, very sad!
Hope, that it'll be fixed soon. - Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 13535747, 7 years agoThe latest update (28th of November) blocks too many scripts. For example, I can't load images on Google even if the site is flagged as "trusted". By disabling Noscript everything works fine.
Please fix the issue. - Rated 3 out of 5by Mcmacladdie, 7 years agoDecent extension, but the current version has issues where whitelisted sites refuse to stay whitelisted, or will lose their whitelisted status until a tab is closed and then re-opened. This needs to be fixed ASAP.
- Rated 3 out of 5by David, 7 years agoGet Firefox pre-Quantom here (and make sure to disable Firefox autoupdate and background update services):
https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/56.0.2/
Find older version of NoScript here:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/noscript/versions/beta - Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 13522774, 7 years agoI have had nothing but a positive experience with No Script for a few years now, I really do wish we had the old UI back however. The new one isn't so user friendly. But I am thankful for this free service and acknowledge the developers in creating a very useful add on over the years.
- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 13520787, 7 years agoBroken with latest update.
I'm NOT ok with the removal of noscript from the context menu and having to go to the radio icon to make changes each time.
Equally changes do not take effect 100% of the time, or at all. I can approve a site and on reload of the page the settings are back to default. This prevents me from even loading some pages because it simply won't save settings. I've now had to disable the extension to even do things.
I've used this addon for years and can not understand the latest move... even the menu options have been reduced to nothing compared to previous versions. - Rated 3 out of 5by ~Ar-S~, 7 years agoThanks for your development efforts in FF 57. But the old GUI was much more simple as i am concern.
- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 12416561, 7 years agoI understand it can be difficult to migrate to a new framework, which is why I am slightly sympathetic. However, the people have spoken. The new UI is garbage, and much of the functionality has been altered in a negative way since the Web Extensions framework updates. I'll go back to 5 stars pending UI and usage fixes! In spite of all this, thank you for the work you've done on the extension.
- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 13516526, 7 years agoWhy did you change a simple UI to this "new" style. You already had the issue with late support for the new firefox, and then you came across with this ugly and popups spamming addon ? Umatrix welcome
- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 13505654, 7 years agoThere is a bug related to XSS blocking in recent updates:
Opening new tabs from Firfox's blank page is extremely slow and showing a dialog "XSS attack from [...] to ".
Please fix. - Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 10244801, 7 years agoMost of what is happening now you should blame on Mozilla, though I have to admit there are several things I don't get with NS' new interface.
- Rated 3 out of 5by JP, 7 years agoWas having a lot of trouble with it at first. The noscript button was working for a bit, then stopped working which may have been due to a FF update as far as I could tell on the noscript site? Restarting the browser fixed that particular issue but other things weren't working.
I removed noscript from the add-ons and then went to https://noscript.net/getit and installed from there and it seems to have fixed a majority of the problems as well as cleaned up the UI a bit. I suggest everyone give that a try as well. Just seems there's still bugs to work out and I'm glad to continue to stick with it.
