ebay "add to watchlist" blocked by this extension

[VK2BEA]

ebay's "add to watchlist" function is blocked by this extension.
Is there a way to whitelist this fuction?

Same here! I disabled one extension after another and ClearURL is the culprit. Any guidance is much appreciated!

It also breaks the youtube search. After hitting return, the page loads but never finishes.

You can export the .json, delete the culprit, save, and then import it.

The link request is something like "https://www.ebay.com/myb/WatchListAddAjax".
You should be able to use http headers to find the parameters that coincide within clearurls .json to remove it. If it's the same as other parameters you're trying to block then it's a no go.

I on the other hand am trying to block "?_skw" from the search result listings (in ebay) because I keep clicking the same listing over and over because each item has a new tracking url for each search. I'm having a hell of a time trying to figure this out. Clearurls doesn't seem to work for my particular issue or I'm just too stupid to figure it out.

So chatgpt helped me with my issue. The issue was tampermonkey not working with some scripting for some reason. Violentmonkey ended up working for me.

Here's the code if anyone wants to remove certain params within search listings of ebay.

Not trying to jack your thread OP as I'm not entirely sure what params you're wanting to block on ebay that end up shitting on your watchlist function.

    function cleanLinks() {
        const links = document.querySelectorAll('a[href*="/itm/"]');
        links.forEach(link => {
            const match = link.href.match(/https:\/\/www\.ebay\.com\/itm\/\d+/);
            if (match) {
                link.href = match[0];
            }
        });
    }

    // Run on initial page load
    cleanLinks();

    // Run again if eBay dynamically loads more listings (e.g., via AJAX)
    const observer = new MutationObserver(() => cleanLinks());
    observer.observe(document.body, { childList: true, subtree: true });
})();
