- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14640354, 5 years agoGreat extension, but could you add the ability to save all open tabs? doing it one by one for 200 pages is tiring
- Rated 5 out of 5by flyinabottle, 5 years agoCould you update scrapbee_backend to 64bit? It cannot work on new version macOS catalina now. Thanks a lot!
NOW it works again! Thanks again.Developer response
posted 5 years agoPlease try 1.9.5 and re-install backend to see if it works for you. - Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 15308274, 5 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by bulrush, 5 years agoOk, this does work but once you install the add-on you have to install a back end, by following the install guide in the Scrapbee help. Follow instructions carefully. This is not an addon that installs with one click.
To save pages, right click on the web page, choose Scrapbee menu, choose capture Page. Also the Scrapbee option "Capture URL" does not save the page locally, it only saves a bookmark to the URL in the Scrapbee window. If you want to save a page locally use "Capture Page".
After you do a "Capture page" to a local file a window will pop up showing each element that was saved. Click the "Done" button to close that popup window.
To verify you have saved the page locally, make sure the Scrapbee sidebar is open, click once on the page name in Scrapbee. Look in the browser URL bar. The URL should start with "localhost:" if the page is saved locally.
Also if you look where your setup our RDF file location in Scrapbee settings, under the "data" folder you will see more folders with a long number. These folder names begin with the date in YYYYMMDD format and the rest is likely some type of time stamp. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 15301604, 5 years ago

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 15270823, 5 years agoThere is no documentation how to start off with a blank project and if I try to import my Scrapbook .rdf, it ScrapBee gets stuck on "Loading..." forever. The help page is not useful, as all it says is: "Step-3 Finish RDF part in Configure".

posted 5 years agoThere is a help page about how to setup/configure/use Scrapbee. You can find it from sidebar's toolbar. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 15269945, 5 years agoJust use it for few days but so far so good, I CAN use all of my old scrapbook data.
Search is smooth, and It has comment to make search easier.
Hope can search for id as well, because it's unique. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 15211043, 5 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 15228284, 5 years agoMany thanks for this add-on! Great, Scrapbook is back. Long live ScrabBee!

- Rated 4 out of 5by Pascal, 5 years agoMany thanks for this add-on! At least I can access to my Scrapbook data. Do you intend to implement the possibility to add metadata and comments (like Scrapbook) and/or to capture webpages with files linked? It would be perfect. Already, the search function works very well (though I have a lot of data). Just, the Scrapbook comments are not included in the text searched, and it does not seem possible to localize the found items in the Scrapbee folders tree. Anyway, thank you again and please keep it up!

posted 5 years agoHi, metadata(properties) and comments have been added in version 1.8.4, enjoy. - Rated 4 out of 5by etonne, 5 years agovery good tool, but :
1) Bug quand dans la page en cours de récupération des liens envoie sur des adresse inexistante erreur 404 le programme boucle indéfiniment
2) Il pourrait être souhaitable que les données d'initialisation du setting soit stockées dans un fichier texte de types scrapbee.ini qui serait placé dans le répertoire où se trouve l'exécutable de scrapbee
3) Par ailleurs il pourrait être intéressant que la saisie de l' url de la page soit systématiquement récupérer en même temps que la page.
1) Bug when in the page being retrieved links sends on non-existent address error 404 the program loops indefinitely
2) It might be desirable for the setting's initialization data to be stored in a scrapbee.ini text file that would be placed in the directory where the scrapbee executable is located.
3) Moreover, it could be interesting that the entry of the url of the page is systematically recover at the same time as the page
thank you for this tool - Rated 5 out of 5by R25097, 5 years agoFinally a Scrapbook alternative for Firefox Quantum, and it works well too !
Thank you so much for your efforts. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 15012515, 5 years agoThanks again for this cool and useful add-on!
Now the settings are also preserved when the cookies and history are deleted.
The developer responds very quickly to problems and wishes. The add-on is constantly being improved. - Rated 5 out of 5by olliebean, 5 years agoThis is great, the first scrapbook-style addon I've seen that reproduces the functionality of the original to delete parts and add highlights to saved pages, and with the fully editable sidebar index, and being able to use my existing Scrapbook data is brilliant. I just have a couple of suggestions:
1) Right-clicking on an entry in the sidebar, to delete or rename a saved page, also opens a new copy of that page. Ideally a right-click should just open the popup menu, and not load the page.
2) As well as ctrl-clicking to open a saved page in a new tab, it would be great if middle-clicking also be made to do this, as with middle-clicking links in the browser. - Rated 3 out of 5by jafin, 5 years agoCould you please consider using a different packer 1.7 on windows reported the exe as malware with Emsisoft AV on windows. (Trojan.Generic.23045000 (B))
Developer response
posted 5 years agoOk, I guess the defender engine updated, I am going to remove packer in next version.
UPD: Please update to >= 1.7.2 to see if this have been fixed. - Rated 4 out of 5by OnebraveX, 6 years ago非常感谢开发者的努力,以及开源。
但是我在使用1.7.0版本的时候,删除了剪切的网页后没有删除对应rdf文件里的项。导致在scrapbook打开的时候会出现空白项。 - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14972590, 6 years agoThank you very much for this add-on! Finally a worthy AND working successor for Scrapbook. And I even can use my old scrapbook 1:1 again. :-)
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 14954834, 6 years agoWould it be possible to reduce the size of font in the left panel ?
EDIT : less than 100% and also reduce the line spacing. The aim is to have more items on the screen. The font size and line spacing of former Scrapbook add-on was more convenient I think.Developer response
posted 6 years agoSo you want font resize less than 100%?
UPD: This is done in version 1.7.0 :-)
