Review: Good - script works

Looks really good, but doesn't seem to show on Bing. Also, even if I manually add something to the filter it doesn't seem to filter on Bing.

What did they do with their links?! All of them are detected as www.bing.com instead of the real site. For example:

Actual URL: https://www.userchrome.org

Result link: https://www.bing.com/ck/a?!&&p=83fe80867184697fJmltdHM9MTY4NTIzMjAwMCZpZ3VpZD0zNGJiNTYwMC00N2Q4LTYyZmYtMGEwNy00NTIwNDY1YzYzODcmaW5zaWQ9NTIyMw&ptn=3&hsh=3&fclid=34bb5600-47d8-62ff-0a07-4520465c6387&u=a1aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cudXNlcmNocm9tZS5vcmcv&ntb=1

I guess the script now needs to look above the link at the cite line. Not sure how accurate that will turn out to be...

Okay, hopefully version 2.2.7 fixes it for you for now. I only did very light testing.

Working very nicely now. Thanks for the quick update.

I'd like to suggest an idea to expand your script: Prioritise/Highlight Page Results.

You could have an optional setting which has a little 'top' or 'highlight' icon/name, which, upon clicking, gives a border or shading to highlight the result and increases it's placement on the search page.

E.g. Reddit Cats |block|top|
Reddit Cat Memes blah blah blah.
Reddit url . com /r/ catmemes

There is an add-on that combines highlighting and blocking, so it's probably not worth adding it to this script:

Note: if you have a long list of sites, you need to change from using Sync storage to using local storage because Sync storage is limited in size. (This is in the add-on's settings somewhere.)
