I have downloaded FanFictionDownloader today and it said that it installed successfully and it shows in my add-ons/extensions, but I can't get it on a toolbar or anywhere else to actually be able to use it - what do I need to do?

tried looking on the FFDL forum but couldn't find anything on my particular problem - difficult to navigate the site.

If you can't find your issue on their forum, create a new message as you did here.

Have you tried this;

Type about:customizing<enter> in the address bar. Look for Show / Hide Toolbars at the bottom left.

Thanks for this - I have tried customising in Firefox but the FFDL add-on doesn't show up there to allow me to move it to the toolbar to use. I did try to create a new message on the FFDL forum but gave up in the end because I just couldn't find the way to do it - sorry to be so dense!

Did you try to click the Restore Defaults button in the Customize palette window?


Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problem.

See "Creating a profile":

If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over problems.
