New site requests

You can submit a request for a new website here. Please read the following instructions and share your results for a quicker process. Remember to check the previous requests before asking for a new website.

  1. Visit an article on the site you want to bypass the paywall for and copy the article title.
  2. Open up a new incognito window (Ctrl+Shift+N) and paste the article title into Google.
  3. Click on the same article from the Google search results page. Or you can:
  4. Disable javascript on the website by clicking the button right icon </> on the uBlock panel.
  5. Refresh the page.

Add custom site

Add your own custom site (also for testing). Check 'Custom'-link in popup-menu. By default sites' cookies are removed after page loads (to bypass article limit). Also you can enable Googlebot user-agent or disable Javascript for (sub)domain(s).

Troubleshooting

  • This add-on works best alongside uBlock Origin.
  • If a site doesn't work try turning off uBlock and refreshing.
  • If you live in the EU, also consider installing the extension I don't care about cookies in order to remove cookie warnings.
  • Make sure the (new) site is checked under Options.
