This should happen if you select the option "Immediately block pages on these sites once blocking conditions are met". Do you have that selected? |

Hi! First just want to start by saying that this extension is incredible. I've been using it for about a year, and it has boosted my productivity immensely. The level of flexibility it gives you to customize its behavior seriously makes it unparalleled amongst website blockers.
In my experience with it, the only area where I've found that it gives me a bit too much leeway is in how the end of an override is handled. I'd really like to see an option added, where it would automatically re-block any open/active tabs after the override has expired.
The use case here for me, is during the times when I activate the override so I can watch Youtube while I eat. My override is set to 20 minutes to give me time to watch something until I finish my meal — however the site isn't blocked again after the 20 minutes unless I refresh the page, or navigate to another part of Youtube. This creates a loophole where you can go beyond the time you intended to spend, by just keeping the tab(s) active. Recently after realizing this, I started developing a bad habit of opening multiple Youtube videos in different tabs while the override is active, and then continuing to watch them beyond the override's duration (funny how creative we get to avoid work haha).
This feature would be an absolute godsend to me, and I hope it's possible to implement. Thank you so much for all your hard work in general, on this amazing extension!
