Custom JavaScript for Websites 2

Run custom JavaScript on any website.

Custom JavaScript for Websites 2 lets you inject your own JavaScript code into any website for enhanced customization and debugging. Scripts are synced across your Chrome profile, and you can target injection by domain or regular expression patterns.

The extension supports popular built-in libraries like multiple jQuery versions, MooTools, and Indefinite Observable. It includes a dedicated script editor with Ace Editor features such as syntax highlighting, formatting, undo/redo, and draft auto-save. Use cases range from fixing UI bugs, extracting data, hiding ads, to building completely custom user interfaces, making it a powerful tool for developers and power users alike.

User reviews

Users appreciate the extension for its simplicity and effectiveness in injecting custom JavaScript, making workflows easier. However, multiple reviews mention limitations such as script size restrictions, lack of automatic script execution, and failures on sandboxed pages like YouTube. Some users express concern about the extension becoming unsupported, while others highlight its superiority over similar tools. Overall, it's valued but has notable limitations impacting usability on certain sites and with large or special character-containing scripts.

  • Simplifies adding scripts like jQuery directly within the extension
  • Reliable and effective for many websites, making user tasks easier
  • Praised for being a time-saving and user-friendly tool

  • Incompatibility or issues with handling special characters in scripts (e.g., accented characters)

Epic!

Doesn't work on every website. You'll get "Blocked script execution in 'about:blank' because the document's frame is sandboxed and the 'allow-scripts' permission is not set." on YouTube when trying to access the document.
