I just installed Add-on "Search by Image" with "Tin Eye". When I try to launch the program I get the Error Message, "Content scripts are not allowed on this page."

How do I correct this so that it works as advertised?

Sorry, I meant what site are you testing on.

Content scripts are blocked on built-in pages, the PDF viewer, and certain Mozilla sites. However, it should work on normal sites. Where are you testing?

Hello, I have the same problem with Firefox 98.02, when I push the add on button -> Error message trying to launch "Search by Image", "Content scripts are not allowed on this page."

Is there any bug fix?

Hi Claus, are you using the right-click option (as pictured in the attached screenshot)?

Are you trying to use the script on a restricted page -- that includes several Mozilla sites, built-in pages, and the PDF viewer -- or does this happen on an ordinary page?

Hi jscher, sorry for the delay. I had problem to find the forum and the chat. I expected I get a email when I received an answer. Your are right the problem is mozilla image. With e.g. Wikipedia image it works. Again thanks for your answer. This was my first question in mozilla forum. Claus
