Job titles on LinkedIn not updating when the highlighted word is present. #28

Describe the bug
I am looking at jobs on LinkedIn, I search by keyword and I am using the highlighter to highlight the keyword so I can easily spot it in the job descriptions. It also highlights the word I have used in the titles as well and it's this that seems to be the problem, if I switch to another job in the list the title does not update only the description content. It freezes the title from that point on.
I must point out in case it's not known that when switching from one job to another on LinkedIn only part of the page updates not the whole page so I suspect this has something to do with it but I am not technically minded to know myself.

Steps To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Open '...' LinkedIn jobs page
  2. Click to '....' any job that has the highlighted word in the title of the job.
  3. The problem is that '....' If you then switch to another job in the list, the content updates but not the title. The title remains the same when you move to another job in the list.

Expected behavior
The expected behavior is that if you switch to another job in the list, all the content should update.

Device info:

  • operating system: OSX Catalina
  • Browser and version: Chrome (UP to date)
  • Auto Highlight version: 5.0

Additional info
Add any other info about the problem here.
Ai has suggested it might be something to do with the technology used on the LinkedIn page that allows the page to partially update.
Hope this helps.

Hello,
Thank you for the report.
The LinkedIn has been problematic before (and it looks like it still is).
I'll try to look into that for the upcoming release if I have enough time.
The issue is in the mutation observer which somehow misses the change, but I think I can upgrade it and make it synchronous now (either that or I end up with an infinite loop :)).
