Since Chrome update, no extensions work on Newsblur

I have Windows 8.1 and Chrome Version 45.0.2427.7 dev-m (64-bit). Since Chrome updated a few days ago, none of Chrome’s extensions work on Newsblur’s website (like Snaplink or even pictures that I had previously Adblocked).

I’m just curious, what exactly could be causing this issue on Newsblur and not other websites.

Thanks!

I’ll start with saying that I have no idea. But can you check the developer console? Do you see any errors? I’d love to see the output of that error console.

Here is the error log from Adblock’s background page and it includes Newsblur links. Maybe it will helps figure out out what’s going on.

Uhh, is this a dev version of Chrome? It looks like it was broken by them. Also, Adblock is notorious for breaking NewsBlur, so try disabling it.

Okay, thanks for taking a look. Hopefully they’ll fix it next update. :slight_smile:
