Hi, my extension is 3 days on awaiting review, I release/sign pretty often as it's in active development. Is there anything I can do on my side?

Addon Name: Hutch

I use Dashlane as an extension in android Firefox on my Acer Swift GO 16 laptop. I use my fingerprint to log into the laptop but in the security settings in the Firefox Dashlane extension I see the message: "Your browser does not support biometrics. To use this feature, install the Dashlane extension using Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge." I prefer to use Firefox.

Why is the option to use Biometrics (fingerprint in this case) not available?

I am wondering what was the exact reason for disabling the 600% volume extension.

Should the users be worried about credential theft or was the extension injecting affiliate links?

Until some days ago I could use the add on "Video Downloadhelper" without problems on my old Macbook Air (2017) with OS10.15.7 but suddenly the add on was not available anymore. I purchased a valid license for this add on. In the Firefox adjustments it was mentioned as deactivated. Could you please let me know, how I can activate the Video Downloadhelper again? Thanking you in advance for your kind support. Sincerely, Ulf Gaertner

The above topic doesn't really apply to this. There was no option for this problem.

Now, I use Firefox Relay to mask my email address. It has always been an icon on the toolbar. It has now disappeared. I would like to use it but can't without that icon.

Please help. Thanks.

I am having a problem with Firefox. Some websites do not load correctly and certain extensions do not work as expected.

I have already tried restarting Firefox and checking my internet connection, but the issue still happens.

Please advise how to fix this problem. Thank you.

The new version of Download helper is uncommissioned for YouTube. I have tried everything including reinstalling, clearing cookies and catch etc. How can I just revert back to prior version as this seems to be a degraded version?

I would like to ask why you still have to enforce the ADguard ban after you have withdrawn from the China branch. Your competitor, the Edge, can be used for advertising. Why is the ban still not lifted?

Topic is Extensions. How do we get an extension to be recommended by Mozilla? Maybe we can upvote to do this.

"Gmail Conversation Reversal" - likely the first one with the most reviews and most recently updated. SS attached.

Thanx

Very recently upgraded Firefox for Android from 147.0.4 to 148.0.1; I knew a bit about upcoming changes of menu system (but we also got fancy rounded corners ...).

But this is in part utter rubbish.

I know it has been possible to move the address field from top to bottom, and that that might work better with the new menu, but even if closer to fingers holding the phone it will anyhow be so low and in a corner that you can't reach it without risk dropping the mobile. And this, the new menu, isn't even my main issue. With the menu at the top, and the old menu system, you at least continued to work in the same area, once you had opened the menu.

The amount of "clicks" is pretty much the same, though; 2 for bookmarks (if you don't simply type part of the address), pretty much the same for add-ons (several use white-listing for scripts, such as NoScript, and often have to adjust these, so those settings are quite frequently used).

But, the main issue is something related to "gestures", swiping down a web page seems to invoke some add-on setting, in my case NoScript. That is, strict vertical swipes works most of the time as before (and "most of" is pretty much a disaster), if I swipe slightly diagonal (exaggerated in image), I get an icon for NoScript (scripts not enabled for page in example), and the further I swipe the bigger the icon. It goes away if I lift finger, but if I move into the icon, it can invoke NoScript's settings.

Is this the intended behaviour? And above all, scrolling down should work 100 % of the time.

Hi everyone,

I recently built a small Firefox extension for my website https://calcolo-stpendionetto.it https://calcolo-stpendionetto.it , which helps users calculate their net salary in Italy using updated IRPEF and INPS rates.

However, when I try to upload the extension to addons.mozilla.org addons.mozilla.org (AMO), I keep getting this error message: Signing is not possible due to an error with the manifest file

{

 "manifest_version": 2,
 "name": "Calcolo Stipendio Netto",
 "version": "1.0",
 "description": "Calculate your Italian net salary (IRPEF, INPS, regional tax) quickly.",
 "icons": {
   "48": "icons/icon48.png",
   "128": "icons/icon128.png"
 },
 "browser_action": {
   "default_popup": "popup.html"
 },
 "permissions": ["activeTab"]

} I also tried switching to manifest_version 3, but then Firefox gave a warning that some properties like browser_action are deprecated or not recognized.

Has anyone experienced the same issue when uploading finance or calculator-related extensions? Is there a new manifest format or signing rule I might be missing for Firefox extensions?

Any help or examples from working extensions would be greatly appreciated. Marien Klin

Is anyone monitoring this community? Has it been abandoned?

I've been having an ongoing problem. I fixed it myself, because after posting here, I had zero responses and didn't know what to do, so I messed around and tried things on my own, which seemed to fix it. But apparently, it is not fixed, and I still don't know what to do. A Firefox expert I am not.

Very simply, I use two different computers, each 2000+ miles apart. Each time, and this has worked for well over 3 years now, the entire computer is copied to a backup. The backup data is restored, the current Firefox profile, as well as the Firefox program. To repeat, this has worked for well over 3 years now.

In order to get the extensions working, that requires disabling and then reenabling each one. (Otherwise, Firefox will not access the internet.)

This time, the extensions were disabled and enabled, and everything appeared to be working fine, but nope, not a single extension works. Even choosing a different extension that is normally disabled doesn't work.

I used to use Adaware, which is on the disabled list, so I disabled the non-working Ublock Origin and enabled Adaware, and it doesn't do anything. The ads roam freely all over the page. They pop up and dance around.

Not one extension will work. New, old, enabled, disabled, whatever. Nothing.

Does it bear repeating that I am not a Firefox expert? Without an answer from someone who knows what they're doing, I may as well switch to crap, inferior Edge with the zillions of dancing, pop-up ads. And I hate Edge.

I'm begging for an expert to help here.
