Programmable Buttons that execute code are intended to perform certain tasks on websites. However, certain websites necessarily require such code to be executed every time.

Hence, there needs to be an option to allow running button code everytime certain website is opened. Or if you want to extend it, it can be run on every website (and the user would need to configure code so that it only works on certain sites).

    joystmp This is likely better to be done through user script support for which ther eshould be a feature suggestion here somewhere

        Vlad While that is true, I'd much rather not install third party extensions and use browser in-built features (for privacy, security and performance reasons).

        If this is implemented, I think this can also resolve issues related to redirect extensions.

            joystmp I meant user script support natively in orion for which there is a post here.

                joystmp Correct, but it would solve this problem and more, while the opposite is not true.

                      Is this feature still planned, or is it not going to be implemented in favor of programmable buttons, which already exist?

                        0xCUBE Yes still planned but we are facing a question do we spend three weeks building it or try to fix as many bugs we can, which are plentiful.

                            sure makes sense. I just wanted to check in since buttons were implemented a few months ago.

                              Vlad Just wanted to chime in and say I'd also be interested in this! No rush though, understand the desire to get it right. I mostly use UserScripts to filter out distracting parts of websites like recommendations.

                                I want to be able to enable a toggle or checkbox in the programmable buttons edit menu to have them run by default on every page I visit.

                                For example, run the dark mode programmable button on every page I visit. This allows me to view every page in dark mode by default.

                                I see users using this feature mostly with the dark mode button. It can replace Dark Reader for a faster and more efficient browsing experience.

                                    Vlad I would love this to become reality.
