- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 11640498, 4 years agoUnfortunately... stopped working.
Hope the Dev will fix it soon in the next update.
EDIT: By doing several tests, finally I discovered that removing/reinstalling the add-on makes it work again. Perhaps this happened in my case because I'm using Nightly. So I can't really blame the add-on (deserves 5 starts).Developer response

- Rated 5 out of 5by eggyolk, 5 years agoVery nice add-on, thanks a lot!
I'm using it with firefox 68 ESR on a linux system with a 3-button mouse. I'm using only the "Long left-click" since the "Right-click" interferes with the context menu in an unfavorable manner.
My typical use-case: Scanning a news-portal, I open some articles in new tabs in the background via long left-clicks and then I read the articles in the tabs afterwards. However, there may be articles I want to read immediately, so I open them in a new tab in the foreground via the standard firefox middle-click shortcut.
Bottom line: Although this add-on aims at 2-button mice, it is also very useful for 3-button mice. It would be even more practical, if there were a "Long middle-click" option in the preferences: a short middle-click opens a link in a new tab in the foreground, a long middle-click opens a link in a new tab in the background. Such a feature would comply with the standard firefox mouse shortcuts. (Till the change to the WebExtensions API, the add-on "MClickFocusTab" provided exactly this feature - for me it was one of the most important add-ons. Unfortunately, it was not adapted to the WebExtensions API.) - Rated 5 out of 5by riley, 5 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Kosimek, 5 years agoGreat add-on. One of the reasons I finally made the switch to FF version 69+. The only issue I have is that, when I click on a link in the Bookmarks toolbar is does not open the link in a separate window (like it does when I click a link on a page) causing me to override the page I was on. Very annoying. Is there anything that can be done about that?

posted 5 years agoShould be fixed in Right Links WE 0.5b9:
https://addons.mozilla.org/addon/right-links/versions/- Rated 5 out of 5by Scribe, 6 years agoI just use the long left click option, which works well for me, and I've found it's best to deselect the right click option, together with 'handle clicks on images' - which causes a problem when dragging a map, but that's to be expected.
I also use v0.4.1 on Pale Moon 28.4 On this it's also necessary to deselect 'handle clicks on bookmarks,' otherwise dragging bookmarks has to be done quite rapidly!
Thanks very much for a really useful extension :-) - Rated 1 out of 5by DBpvr, 6 years agowhere is the old NON WEB EXTENSION version cus this one is absolutely garbage and does NOT WORK thanks for auto updating to this non working crap removed !
EDIT
For those that want the old api and refuse to upgrade to quantum crap

btw I give that a 5 star ratingDeveloper response
posted 6 years agoAfter updating should be opened options page with notice about limitations:
https://github.com/Infocatcher/Right_Links_WE/blob/0.5b8/_locales/en/messages.json#L21
And with links to legacy version.
Also I don't know, what is better: show available update to features-limited WebExtension version for users, that still use old Firefox (and wait for extension update) or limit minimum version to Firefox 57 (but actually works at least in Firefox 52 ESR). - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13461505, 6 years agoA great add-on that works perfectly... Until a few hours ago. It does not work at this precise moment, at least in my case. Any update error?
