by Doris, 6 years agoGreat little tool! I tried other add-ons, but this works best for me. Thank you! I like the little delay before the counter display autohides as I sometimes need to refer to it. I would love this more if it would have options for:
1- directly displaying the count in the context menu (so just quick look in one click);
2- display character count only, word only, or both (for extensive use, immediately seeing just what you need helps);
3- keyboard shortcut (although I did a little keyboard macro for myself so I only need to press one key).

posted 6 years agoThanks for using and loving it.
1- I am not sure if the APIs allow that(I will try the same :) )
2- yes that will be a plus(I will implement addon preferences for that)
3- That's an awesome idea(It will be really helpful if you can suggest any shortcut)

- Rated 1 out of 5by shahrooz, 2 years agoThis Add-in does not work at all.
Today I suddenly realized that this Add-in does not count anything. Compared to the word app, it always has mistakes. As a writer, my job depends on counting words. So this add-in created lots of problems for me today.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Tha Doctah, 3 years agoCannot get result on any web page: have restarted Firefox, notifications are allowed and my Mac is not in Do Not Disturb mode. Does not matter what page I am on or how much text I highlight; when I right click, Word Count appears, I click on it, and nothing at all happens.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 15216074, 4 years agoNot working for me. I hear a three-toned chime when I click on "word count" but nothing appears.

- Rated 4 out of 5by eUROs, 4 years agoVery good Extension! BUT the only problem is that it counts also the Empty spaces between the characters. There is no option to disable Not to count the "empty spaces".

- Rated 2 out of 5by Newrone, 5 years agoI have no notification.
I select, right-click, click Wordcount &... nothing!
Some reviewers say the figure should appear top-right for 10 secs. Not for me.Developer response
posted 5 years agoHi there,
I know you will feel this redundant question, I fell in this trap many times, but by any chance is your do not disturb mode(if on mac) is on?
Do not disturb mode does not allow any notifications, so it will not work if do not disturb mode is on.
