Chrome extension not injecting css

Question

I've read similar many questions on stack overflow and havent found anyone with a problem similar to mine. I am not sure what i am doing wrong. (if i am doing something wrong) I hope you could help.

What i am trying to do is to inject css into the website minds.com using a chrome extension. The problem is that it is not injecting. I dont think its just that website because i have tried on one other.

manifest file:

{
  "manifest_version": 2,

  "name": "My Style",
  "description": "None",
  "version": "0.3",

  "content_scripts": [{
    "matches": ["http://www.minds.com/*"],
    "css": ["my-style.css"],
    "run_at": "document_start"
  }]
} 

css

Answer 1

Something else that can trip you up (I spent a couple of hours on this one):

In the json for matches under the content_scripts in your manifest, it matters if the protocol is correct, i.e. http or https. If you access a site with https, and the manifest says http, the extension won't inject the script/css (and vice-versa).

Answer 2

You should replace "http://www.minds.com/*" with "https://www.minds.com/*"
