Manage Acces on github

Unread post by dink_fbneo » 2020-07-09, 03:16

Using Pale Moon 28.10.0 64bit version.
Under project settings -> Manage Access -> "Find a ..." search box (see pic) never finds anyone, even if I type in their full github user-id. It just spins acting like its attempting to search someone that I typed in.

Works great with the default UA override. (Manage access, invite collaborator, since my repo is public). You must be blocking something. You need to allow scripts from githubassets.com in your adblocker.

Thanks for the info, moonbat. I disabled ublock (my only addon), but it's still stuck when trying to search someone.
Can you tell me more about this UA override? Under "Preferences -> Advanced -> "Compatibility" -> User Agent Mode, I tried Native and Firefox Compatibility, and get the same thing. Is that what you' mean?

p.s. I'm referring to the search bar that is under "Manage access", not the "Invite teams or people" popup.

thanks for replying & best regards,

I meant the default UA override in about:config - general.useragent.override.github.com
See whether this key is shown in bold for you which would indicate it is overridden, and if so, rightclick and reset to default. (Or you can try my extension PermissionsPlus which adds a UA override section to the page info dialog ;) )

The other thing that you could check is if you've disabled cookies. Some sites don't work properly if they're blocked from setting them, you can add an exception for Github.
