Chaturbate problem about custom-scrollbar HOT 4 CLOSED

There is actually a website whitelisting feature that's planned (see #10), but that is unlikely to be completed until this summer (likely mid-July). The upcoming version of the add-on (set to be released in a couple of weeks) will have a new profile system that will allow you to have multiple groups of settings and switch between them seamlessly. The feature coming in this update should really help with the problem you are having, while the whitelisting feature should solve it entirely.

I will look into the textbox issue though. Theoretically, there shouldn't be any issues with a textbox that has scrollbars, but I'm guessing the website you are having issues on has styled everything in a way that is broken when scrollbars are added.

More info for you. By selecting: "Allow websites to override", "Only width" or "Color and width" fixes the problem on that site. Selecting "Only color" does not.
This is a horizontal textbox within a width adjustable frame. The textbox sizes with the frame and the text area is larger than the size of the box. So scrolling thru the text you write, is with the arrow keys. With the Custom scrollbars added it shows "scroll chevrons" and prevents adding text.
Sorry, I didn't think to test those options first. But I hope this info helps dev in some way. Good luck on a worthwhile project.

Thanks for the additional information.

I still haven't had a chance to look into this one just yet. I'm guessing the website is using specific code to hide the scrollbars, which is why allowing the website to override the width solves the problem. My recommendation for right now would be to leave the override setting on (it shouldn't cause changes on many other websites).

There is an update for the add-on currently pending review (I'm guessing it will be available on Firefox this week and Chrome/Edge next week). In the new version, you can have multiple groups of settings (profiles) and you can change between them while you browse. That would allow you to have a group of settings with the override setting and one without so that you can switch between them when you are using this website versus when you are using others.

The next version of the add-on is going to (hopefully) allow users to link a settings profile to specific websites, which should solve the problem of users being stuck with issues on certain websites.

I'm closing this issue because I believe that the ability to set custom rules for specific websites (see #10) is an adequate fix for this type of problem. This type of issue is to be expected when modifying a website to be something other than what the designer expected.

Preventing the add-on from changing the scrollbars on text inputs is not necessarily what users would want or expect. There are plenty of cases where it's expected that a text input would display a scrollbar.
