Can't create the proper folder name

[locksoft]

I'm trying to tweak my Plex Web interface, that is available at:

https://app.plex.tv/

But I can't create a folder that can be seen by Tamperish.

I've tried "plex.tv" and "app.plex.tv", but in the extension menu it still says "Nothing's here yet".

What can I do?

Why did you close the thread "as completed"? I still have this issue.

I saw a similar report, thinking it was a duplo. 🤦‍♂️

I've just tested plex.tv folder and it works a expected:

adjustments.css (found in the respective domain folder) is a copy-paste file with a quick Dark mode/invert styling – as Plex.tv is Dark & I have Dark mode on, it's inverted to a lightened visual.

I guess it's something with your Tampers folder setup. Please check it, including the permission (which should be granted once you select the source folder).

Hmmm... That's really strange.

So far I've two Plex folders in my Tamperish subfolder. "plex.tv" and "tv" (for the whole domain):

If I put the style.css file in the "tv" one, it works (the purpose of CSS is just to make the edit window taller):

But, if I move the same file in the "plex.tv" one, Tamperish won't find it (as you can see the Tamperish popup is empty):

I access my Plex library with this URL (I already tried to make a folder called "app.plex.tv" but it didn't work as well):

https://app.plex.tv/desktop

Any idea?

Thanks.

P.S. Maybe it could be a good thing to add a button (or a text field) in the Tamperish popup showing the folder name it's expecting from that website, so it would me immediate to create it without doubts. :)

No idea. Sounds really weird. 🤔 I'd say it's a filesystem resolution issue, but hard to guess the reason. As mentioned, it works for me with the second-level domain folder correctly, so I believe it's not a code issue on its own.

Can you check the folder hierarchy in the Terminal?

Can you also check Safari settings whether there's no explicit rule for the domain in Websites → Tamperish? Altho that wouldn't work with the tv as well. 😕

Also please try putting the style into some dummy folder & create a symlink to see if there's some difference (move style to dummyfolder & in Tampers folder, do ln -s dummyfolder plex.tv). 🤔 I use symlinks very wildly so that could act as a nice workaround. 😄

Ad some innovations, this is one I had in mind (just to shorten that “first” entry creation hassle 💡) but my trouble right now is, it works soo well for my use-cases that I find it complicated to find enough time for enhancements. 😅

Hmmm... you know what?
After updating Sonoma to 14.1, made some tries here and there (also prepared a video for you), I simply deleted the plex.tv folder and recreated it, with the same, identical name.
Guess what? It works... :)

#mysteries :D

Edit: AAAARRGGHHHHH!!!

I'm so sorry... No idea how/why Finder decided to keep .com extension and hide it (I didn't do it for sure, at least when sober). :P

Edit #2: Mystery solved.

When you create a folder ending with .com (it seems it only works with that, if you create a name.tv nothing happens), Finder asks if you want to keep the .com extension. Then, if you rename it to .something, it shows name.something but silently it keeps the .com and hides it.
