Disable extensions for sidebar applications.

@leocg I understand, but the extension still activates on the sidebar applications and not on the webpage (because it's blacklisted).
Basically blacklisting the webpage is only working on the tab page and not on the sidebar page for some reason.

@yoday Right click on the messenger panel and copy the address, then check if it's the same one in your exception list.

Right clicking a sidebar application does not give me an option to copy its link.

@yoday Of course you need to have the panel with the messenger opened and right click on that panel.

I think so. Do you know how do I contact devs?

I tried that too, but if I right click the sidebar application icon while it's open, I get the same options and the sidebar app collapses (or closes).

@omi-kun But it's obvious that Whatsapp uses web.whatsapp.com and Spotify uses open.spotify.com but for some reason extension does not disable them even after blacklisting the sites.

Screenshots for examples
Dark reader extension options in open.spotify.com web page in tab: https://imgur.com/a/PtbD4tF
Full screen screenshot of the same: https://imgur.com/a/6JL78xv

Look at the volume slider button for example.

Screenshot of the Player from sidebar:

Are you also using the Opera GX browser?

OK Thanks a lot, if this does not seem to work I will definitely try Night eye. I will also look at your post and reply if I am able to find something.
Thank you.

@yoday Nope, regular Opera but there shouldn't be any difference since they have the same core, GX is based on regular Opera.

@yoday You already found a solution by trying a different extension, but here's what I found on this situation:

Opera GX is set to dark mode by default.

By default, Twitter in Opera GX is set to "lights out" under "more -> Display" on the Twitter page (whether in a tab or in the panel).

You can change Twitter from "lights out" to "Default" on the Twitter page (whether in a tab or in the panel) and Twitter will show as light even if Opera GX itself is set to dark.

With the Dark Mode extension installed, even if Twitter is set to "Default" (which is light mode), the extension forces Twitter (whether in a tab or in the panel) to the extension's own dark mode. Going to twitter.com in a tab, clicking the extension's icon on the address bar and turning the power off for the extension on twitter.com and refreshing both the Twitter page in a tab, and the Twitter page in the sidebar, fixes things so the extension doesn't work on them anymore, and they appear light. But, with Dark Reader, that doesn't work.

In Opera GX, in the Twitter panel, I can right-click on the page and I see "copy address".

So, in short, I can confirm that there's an issue with Dark Reader. When the extension is enabled, its CSS that makes the page turn to dark is active on the Twitter panel no matter what. Keeping the extension on and disabling dark mode for twitter.com via the extension's icon popup, doesn't have any effect on the Twitter panel. I suspect that this is due to how the extension is handling site exceptions for itself. Or, there's some kind of permission issue with the page being in the panel. Even though the extension probably doesn't consider Opera's sidebar panels at all, I would try reporting the issue to the extension's developer to see if they can figure it out.
