feature request: allow My Rules whitelist to override 3rd party host files
Closed this issue · 2 comments
I'm trying to allow a domain (googleadservices.com) and have whitelisted it under My Rules but uMatrix continues to block the domain until I disable all 3rd party host files.
my line in My Rules:
* googleadservices.com * allow
results: when clicking on google shopping ads from a google search page, it loads [chrome-extension://ogfcmafjalglgifnmanfmnieipoejdcf/main-blocked.html?[...]](a tab) with the following message:
uMatrix has prevented the following page from loading:
http://www.googleadservices.com/[...]
As soon as I disable all the hosts files, I am able to load the page normally.
Your rule * googleadservices.com * allow does not override existing rules for www.googleadservices.com. Just override the explicit blacklisting of www.googleadservices.com (in Dan Pollock's, MVPS, hpHosts) using * www.googleadservices.com * allow.
excellent. Thank you for the explanation and the great addon.
