Create website blacklist about ghosttext-for-chrome HOT 6 CLOSED

It's a good idea but I would move it the new Milestone v2?

from ghosttext-for-chrome.

Rather than a "blacklist" that disables GT completely, we might just inform the use that the site is know to be problematic and GT might not behave as expected

from ghosttext-for-chrome.

What do you think about this data structure?

{
    'example.com': {severity: 'LOW', info: 'Disqus comments are not supported.', date: 1234567890},
    'foo.bar': {severity: 'HIGH', info: 'GhostText won't work :( !', date: 1234567890},    
}

from ghosttext-for-chrome.

Why the date? Should we show it to the user?

We should never completely disable GT functionality, a warning about "it may not work as intended" might be enough.

Should we add a "suggest a fix" link to a Github issue?

from ghosttext-for-chrome.

If someday we get to solve issue #25, we might use that information to detect IPboard and show the notice I suggested in #33

The date is only for internal use and makes detecting when this host/system was added to this list, without searching the git history, easier.

You are right, I thought we could use the severity for the hummane.js message color, LOW -> white and HIGH -> red… . If it is only a issue like this "TextArea chrome highlighting bug #33" we don't need to scare the user.

👍 Great idea!

Yeah we have to solve #25 first before starting with this issue.

The data structure should mybe splitted into hosts (facebook.com…) or systems (wordpress…).

{
    hosts: {
        'example.com': {severity: 'LOW', info: 'Disqus comments are not supported.', date: 1234567890},
        'foo.bar': {severity: 'HIGH', info: 'GhostText won't work :( !', date: 1234567890},    
    },
    systems: {
        'i-p-s-board': {severity: 'LOW', info: 'IPboard is buggy with GT. To avoid it, close the connection before opening a new file.', date: 1234567890}, 
    },
}
