  • The json file structure has been changed. There is a migration process that will take your current configuration and update it properly. The native whitelisted domains will be removed from the user configured whitelist.

  • During the Migration, a backup of the old configuration will be created on the folder ConfigBackups next to the config.

  • Policies can now use regex when using urlHost that start with ^ and end with $ (The \ characters need to be escaped by adding a second one). Example: ^(www\\.)?example\\-regex\\-deny\\.com$

  • Policies will default to exact match if both those cases were not used. Example: example-exact-match-deny.com

  • Reworded bad URI error to be more informative

  • Note

    The urls defined on the whitelist are just the host part of the url. Basically subdomain and domains.

    It doesn’t include the protocol (eg

    https://), nor anything after the top level domain (eg: .com)

  • Added Kick to the native whitelist

• Updated Magica Cloth 1 to v1.12.13
