Rated 2 out of 5
by taseronify, 4 years agoIt rarely works. Can't detect images and videos on most pages. I use Firefox's built in Inspector and get the links from Network monitor by myself. This addon is supposed to do that for me but it simply can't. Needs serious improvement. Image Size Filter doesn't work properly too.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Zakuta, 3 years agobest and simple, suitable UI, works fine most of time. but need some serious updates as websites uses different methods, so it fails to detect file type and unable to load for download. screenshots might be shared on author demand for further improvements. yet thanks for a beautiful extension.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12680106, 4 years agoI was looking for an extension that fits the "Download Manager (S3)". "Download Star" is the perfect complement.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Louis R. Tursi, 4 years agoNow THIS is not just the type of downloader I′ve been looking for, but the best one in particular that actually knows what to do and how to do it. I have tried multiple "download all files/images" add-ons before, and this is by far the best one.
- Rated 5 out of 5by tigregalis, 4 years agoThis is a great add-on.
Btw @CheeryP, all you need to do is put "/" in your Naming Mask, and it will break it out into folders.
e.g. for a naming mask "${ext}/${height}/${width}/${fileext}", for an image "image.png", dimensions 1280x720, it will create the folder/file path "Downloads/DownloadStar/png/720/1280/image.png" - Rated 2 out of 5by Ionel M, 4 years agoCan't figure out how to filter by extension anymore. The interface has become overcomplicated with way too many inputs and buttons. The documentation is practically nonexisting.

- Rated 5 out of 5by KeepingItReal, 5 years agoClick the documents (doc, pdf, mp3, jpg, etc.), set the naming style (use the guide's 1st example), click the download icon (top-right). It's so simple. Love it.
- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 13593990, 5 years agoIs there any way to use renaming masks in the folder name?????
We'd be getting up to 5star territory if you could.
Anyway it seems like certain inputs will stop downloads from starting. For instance input containing forward slashes will not download a thing, which makes me wonder why the noFolder filter even exists. If it's required (at least on Windows), shouldn't it automatically be applied? - Rated 5 out of 5by Sinha Rabi, 5 years ago
