- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 15950280, 2 years agoThis doesn't work but it looks great. I second CD's sentiment that the dev should be encouraged, thus this 4 star review. Especially because it seems the Chrome version is already 2.2 (see below).
UPDATE: 1 star. I have contacted the developer with no response after two months.
This would provide fucntionality sorely lacking in Firefox. It is currently absurdly clumsy to enable and disable extensions, yet there are countless use cases where I want to be able to quickly turn them on and off.
I hope we can get the update ported to Firefox!
Here is a translation from Chinese of markbinder's Jan 20, 2023 5 star review (via online translator):
"Chrome it is already version 2.2.0, I hope the author will update the version on firefox, the current version is no longer available" [guessing "no longer working" is a better translation than "available"] - Rated 4 out of 5by CD, 2 years agoI'm giving this an above average rating because I think it has great potential and I want to draw attention to it. Please encourage the author to work on it more.
It LOOKS awesome, and seems to be exactly what I have been looking for for MONTHS.
So far, however, I have not been able to get it to modify anything. I.E. it can't write any changes you make.
I can't help but notice that in the store at
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/extensions-manager/
it states that it needs two permissions:
"Monitor extension usage and manage themes"
and
"Store unlimited amount of client-side data"
YET IN THE CONFIGURATION FOR THE EXTENSION, IT ONLY LISTS ONE OF THEM:
"Monitor extension usage and manage themes"
SO, obviously, the browser isn't giving it the "Store unlimited amount of client-side data" permission or doesn't know that it requires it...so it can't save anything.
AUTHOR, CARE TO FIX THIS PLEASE? Thank you for writing this, I'm sure it will work great soon! - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 12316266, 2 years ago
- Rated 1 out of 5by Sopor, 2 years agoSorry, but nothing happens when i click on the extensions. No options and no information.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Demonic Scar, 2 years agoIt doesn't work, It seems like it doesn't have proper permissions as it doesn't save groups, and literally nothing on it works = takes effect/WRITES data.
Dev needs to update and request the proper permissions for it to work.
