Is it possible to disable addons on specific pages?

I have some add-ons that can access my page content (abp to mention one). But I do not want them to be enabled on specific pages, like my bank.

Is there any way to blacklist sites? Either per add-on or as a whole. If not that would be great to have.

By the way, Mozilla's site for gathering features suggestions is here: https://input.mozilla.org/feedback

Or you could send a message to one of the developer mailing lists: https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo (hard to figure out which one is most relevant, though...)

That's a good idea, but as far as I know, Firefox doesn't that option built-in.

Extensions might have more limited permissions in a private browsing window that in a regular window, but this will depend on how the individual extension is programmed and isn't a limitation Firefox enforces itself.

I think that Adblock Plus does let you create site exceptions within its filters, but I don't use it myself so I don't know how complicated it actually is. I did find this page: https://adblockplus.org/en/filter-cheatsheet

Great, thank you! I will send inn a request/feedback.

It is not only about ABP. I don't really want to have any 3rd party plugins running while I do my banking. You never know what they contain.
