[Suggestion] Add a way, to export chosen filter lists.

[PoorPocketsMcNewHold]

I've took quite some times to select all my filter that i've had before that Adnauseaum new update, and already after that, a hotfix has been released.
I would wish, that the export feature, could also, remember of all the filter lists that we've subscribed too.
(I've didn't checked if those were already saved locally on a file or something along the lines, I'm just a casual user of this extension.)

Hi @PoorPocketsMcNewHold Do you mean the filter lists that you manually added to the 3rd-party filters?
When I test AdNauseam, it does remember any extra filter I have added and all the filters I have selected before. Could you provide more details about your case?
It would also be more helpful if you could provide the following information:

• OS/version:
• Browser/version:
• AdNauseam version:
• Other extensions you have installed:

[PoorPocketsMcNewHold]

That exactky that. I wanted to know, if they was already a way to export them, when updating your AdNauseaum version, without having to add them again, manually by hand.
As i'm having quite a lot of them, after some visits to the filterlist website.

As it's just a feature suggestion more than a issue report, I doubt this would be useful but here's those informations anyway:

OS/version: Windows 10 18237.1000
Browser/version: Sushi Browser v0.22.0 Geso(Squid arms) (Muon based web browser).
AdNauseam version: 3.7.801 (Will be updating just after that, to 3.7.802, since i was delaying to install this update due to that)

(Feel free to judge and suggest me some modifications to my extensions lists, I do believe i've may have installed too much, and maybe installed some none useful ones in the lot (Aka possible extensions already doing the job of others))

[cqx931]

@PoorPocketsMcNewHold , I see. If you go to the bottom of dashboard.html and click "Backup to File". Then, select "Settings Only" or "Settings and Ads". You will see a json file created for your AdNauseam.
After updating/reinstalling AdNauseam, click "restore from file" at the same place, choose your backup file, then you should be able to all your old selections/filters/etc.

[PoorPocketsMcNewHold]

So, That's what i've expected. It doesn't import correctly those filters, despite being correctly here in the .json file. Neither the settings aswell. It does import the ads, if we manually import the file from the ads menu however. The rest of the settings like the dynamic filter and the whitelist are properly imported.

Since i suppose it might be due to my browser, and that it shouldn't be your job to work on it. I suppose i should close that issue ?
(In either ways, I can easily import again manually all of them, by just copy pasting them).

[dhowe]

@PoorPocketsMcNewHold can you try to find a simplest test case that we can use to recreate the problem? Something like, 'Start with a fresh adnauseam, add filter list X, save settings, quit the browser, reinstall, etc.'

[PoorPocketsMcNewHold]

Setup : An already made backup .json file (Could be from Sushi Browser, or any other browser, as i've tested from a Ungoogled Chromium generated backup), Sushi Browser.

1. Download Sushi Browser and launch it (As i still think is just due to that browser, if you do wish to verify it, this would help to determine if the browser would need to change something precisely)
2. Install AdNauseaum with a .crx file. (Settings > Extension and they're should be a install .crx button there).
3. Open the AdNauseaum settings, and import the .json config using the dashboard.html import button, or the vault.html button to import only the ads from it.

From multiple tries, I've didn't really noticed any of my third parties lists to be imported. As i've said, almost all of them where adden to AdNauseaum using the adp protocol (The classic, click on the link, and a popup window from the extension will ask you if you want to add this filter list). So, i doubt the selection of filter list will influence it.

Additional note: As muon isn't supported, this browser is being ported to electron, i suppose that the old muon engine is known to produce some incompatibilities as reported by this report where it can't save data for the extension, and an other case with pop-up windows i've reported. So feel free to close this issue, if it's being proven to be an another issue of the browser in itself, and not the extension.

@PoorPocketsMcNewHold Thank you for your detailed feedback! Yes, I agree that this issue is more related to the Sushi-browser instead of AdNauseam, so I'm closing this issue now.
