Preface
This extension is not available on the Google Chrome Web Store.
The following instructions are needed to install third-party extensions in Chromium-based desktop browsers.
In extension developer mode you can always install BPC by Load unpacked (latest master, but no automatic updates) or by crx-file (latest release & automatic updates, but possibly you have to add the extension to the allowlist).
You can add/pin the extension icon to the toolbar with the toolbar extensions menu (jigsaw puzzle shaped icon).
Installation
- Download this zip-file from here: click to download.
- Unzip the file and you should have a folder named bypass-paywalls-chrome-clean-master
- Move the folder to a permanent location on your computer (do not delete the folder after installation).
- Go to the extensions page: chrome://extensions
- Enable Developer Mode.
- Click Load unpacked and select/open the extension folder (contains file manifest.json).
- By default BPC has limited host permissions, but you can opt-in to enable custom sites (and also clear cookies/block general paywall-scripts for unlisted sites). You can also just request host permissions for the custom sites you added yourself (or clear cookies (BPC-icon) to ask for host permission for current site).
