Icon Problem

My "Clacks Overhead" icon never lights up on Terry Pratchett websites

Icon always lit

The icon is on in every website except chrome web store, it seems. To add to what others have said, when clicking on the icon I can see a different message when the website has the X-Clacks-Overhead header. It appears a little Clack, instead of the menu. So the detection is working, but the icon is not been updated or something.

Is there a Git repo for this? - I am sure people would help fix it

A lot of people are reporting this as broken. If it is possible to fix it, it may be a good community project. It looks like for a while it was not possible to get this info on https, but should now be doable via https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/webRequest

Lantern always lit

I'm pretty sure my extension isn't working. Maybe Pratchett's just gotten suddenly more popular in the last few months, I dunno. But my lantern is literally ALWAYS lit. I just used a "take me to a random website" tool to visit over a dozen different random websites, and the lantern lit up at literally every single one. It's also lighting up for YouTube, Facebook, and Google, which I'm pretty sure don't have the code.

Having the lantern constantly lit takes away the entire point of the extension. How do I fix this?

Icon always "on"

Hi,

Just got a small issue that started a few days ago (that I noticed). The icons seems to "on" for every site I visit.

Windows 10 (1703), all updates
Chrome 70.0.3538.110 (Official Build) (64-bit)

Tried Microsoft, BBC, Yahoo - sites that I suspect wont have the Clack-Overhead header. Even a site I KNOW doesn't have it is showing up.

Seems to not work on HTTPS?

It seems that over HTTPS, plugin is not able to detect the X-Clacks-Overhead: GNU Terry Pratchett header?

( apologies for you having to go to the Dailymail.....it's a guilty pleasure for me )
