- Rated 5 out of 5by Hemal, 7 years agoLove this. I can never understand lyrics and am always looking for lyrics
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13848586, 7 years agoNote to NoScript Users : if you disable "fetch" in the default presets of NoScript settings, it will block EVERY REQUEST made by LyricsHere extension.
Other than that, the extension is everything I ever dreamed of when listening to music on my browser :D
Thanks a lot Rob W for your help and patience in troubleshooting my case !Developer response
posted 7 years agoWhen I trigger a search for your first example, I do immediately get a result from the first source (using the default settings): https://i.imgur.com/WfP6oaZ.png
If you don't see any results, then access to the sources may be blocked (e.g. by the network adminstrator). Follow up by mail and provide more information if you want help. - Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 12790937, 7 years agoUPDATE: years later, it sadly no longer works very well at all... But if you change your setting so that it no longer searches lyrics sites, it will set up a google query that will automate searching the song, artist and word "lyrics"... popping up in another browser tab. But it simply no longer finds lyrics on the most important lyrics sites, or less important ones for that matter. Thank you for a great run! Everything decays......
I love this application.
I have used this extension for a long time and find it very, very good. When you go to a supported website, a little box opens and a search for lyrics begins within that box (which is where the lyrics will appear, if they are found at any of innumerable sites on the web.
Better yet, the developer has been consistently conscientious in maintaining the extension.... despite the fact that they must have a day job too! Thank you for this..... Thank you for this work of art you have made! - Rated 5 out of 5by Randi, 7 years agoWorks correctly and simple makes it more an really featured apps

- Rated 5 out of 5by GetBroccli, 7 years agoBest lyrics addon. I had a small problem dragging sources into the order I want them searched tho, issue fixed itself in the process of writing this review LOL. Wishing there was some way around it, idk, like a config file or something. Might already be one. Hopefully dev stays interested in this project, there aren't enough lite weight web apps around these days.

posted 7 years agoThe project is currently in maintenance-only mode because it is basically finished and I have other priorities (most of the updates are about modifying the set of supported sources).
There is no officially supported way to import/export via a config file, but you could use the developer tools of the browser to directly read / modify the preferences.
To debug an extension, see the guide at https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Add-ons/WebExtensions/Debugging
After opening a debugger for the extension's background page via about:debugging (see the above link), you can interact with the storage via the chrome.storage.local API, as documented at https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Add-ons/WebExtensions/API/storage/local
For example, to convert the storage to something that you can copy and paste in a file, run the following from the debugger's console:
chrome.storage.local.get(null, items => {
console.log( JSON.stringify(items, null, 4) );
});
You can then manually edit the configuration in the file (at your own risk), and save the changes back as follows:
chrome.storage.local.set();
For example:
chrome.storage.local.set({
"panelOffsets.youtube": {
"top": 100,
"right": 204,
"width": 275,
"maxHeight": 600
}

- Rated 5 out of 5by Audrian, 7 years agoReally good extension, Is there a way to remove the "Lyrics here" button from a YT video? I know you could hide it by ctrl+click, but honestly it would be way better if we could just remove it, there's already one available from the address bar, so it is kinda annoying it sticking out on not-music videos.
Edit: Since you attended my request, editing it to 5-star.
Thanks for your attention. <3Developer response
posted 7 years agoI have published an update (3.14.1) which allows you to permanently hide the in-page button.
To disable the button in the page, right-click on the extension button in the address bar and toggle the "Show Lyrics Here button in the page." menu item (this instruction also appears in the tooltip of the in-page Lyrics Here button). - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13528784, 7 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13488308, 7 years agoGood Job! THX a lot!
My wish, if U can, configurable font-weight would be fine! Keep on ;)Developer response
posted 7 years agofont-weight sounds a bit too specialized to warrant a dedicated option.
You can use a user style manager such as Stylish to change the font-weight of the elements if you wish. Almost every significant element in my panel has a recognizable class name that you can select with CSS. These class names can be found by right-clicking on the lyrics panel and choosing Inspect element (to open Firefox's developer tools). - Rated 5 out of 5by Bob Renwick, 7 years agoOne of the best addons I have seen. It seems to be the only one of its kind. Good job Rob! BTW some new themes or color combos would be nice. That's my only suggestion. But it's great as is.
