[v1.17] Alt-s (Toggle SurfingKeys on current site) stopped working

[clarkwang]

Since settings.blocklistPattern is not working (#2154) I tried <Alt-s> but it does not work either.

Same here.

Enabling Developer mode does not fix the issue for me. Actually it's already enabled in my Chrome before updating to v1.17.

Steps I tried:

1. Developer mode is initially enabled
2. Disable Developer mode, then restart Chrome
3. Enable Developer mode, then restart Chrome
4. Now try <Alt-s> but it does not work for me.

Experiencing same as above with dev mode on Vivaldi and Chrome.

Please turn on Developer mode from chrome://extensions/ then restart your browser, it should work, see more #2159

This works but I can't stay whole day in dev mode.

EDIT: what works is:

1. Enable dev mode.
2. Restart chrome.

I already had Developer mode permanently enabled. Restarting Chrome on a newer version after an upgrade of Chrome triggered this problem. I'm guessing the restart caused SurfingKeys to be upgraded to the new MV3 version which has this bug. I hope this can be fixed soon because SurfingKeys is totally unusable for me without Alt-s functioning, as I rely heavily on native shortcuts on some sites (e.g. gmail, github).

This should have been fixed in 1.17.1.

[aspiers]

I'm already on 1.17.1 and it's still the same bug :-(

[brookhong]

Hum, yes, there is still something need to be fixed, so far Alt-s would just disable current site on next page load(you could see how it works after page reloading), which is not expected, would fix this on next release.

Also here to report the same issue, Alt-s is no longer working for me unfortunately. This also completely breaks the extension for me since I use native Jira keyboard shortcuts

The temporary workaround is to use Alt-i to enable pass-through, but it's a pain having to do that every time you open a site which requires it.
