How do I remove a website from Ubuntu's web applications?

I thought I would try out the new webapps ppa and everything seems to be working fine. However, google reader now floods my messaging menu with all my feeds and turns the icon blue. How can I remove a specific site (google reader) from accessing webapps after I have accepted it?


Solution 1:

Update

Easy way for 12.10 onwards:

Go to the Software Center and search for the specific web app and uninstall it. E.g.

unity-webapps-gmail or unity-webapps-googledocs


Hard way, for 12.04 and older Ubuntu versions

Press Alt + F2 , run dconf-editor.

Now go to com → canonical → unity → webapps.

Edit Allowed domain value and remove the undesired entry.

To prevent any more popups for a site, add the site URL to:

Firefox :Edit>preferences>General> Desktop integration > exception

or

Chrome : Settings > Extension > Desktop integration > Exception

Solution 2:

(A small addition to Web-E's excellent answer.)

Go to the Dash → Ubuntu Software Center → search 'unity-webapps'

You'll now see a list of all the web apps supported by the Unity desktop. Web apps you've installed will have a tick mark on them, and from there installing/removing web apps should be goddamn easy!


WARNING! Do NOT remove the unity-webapps-service package (titled "Service for Web Apps integration with the Unity desktop"). This program runs the Desktop service used for Web Apps integration with Unity desktop.


Ubuntu Software Center search results for 'unity-webapps'

Solution 3:

The .desktop files for these web applications are located in ~/.local/share/applications. Removing these files (e.g. Googleplusgooglecom.desktop, LinkedInlinkedincom.desktop) will immediately remove the entries from the messaging menu.
