CloseReviews for Copy As Plain Text by Firefox user 97bc32
Rated 5 out of 5 stars
Still works great with Firefox 37 :-)
My prior review indicated that the addon had stopped working, but the developer took the time to re-test and suggested that I check that other extensions weren't creating a conflict (there was in fact an extension which disabled the relevant keybindings, and I was able to resolve the issue).
My only request at this point is for the developer to provide a more reliable method of contact, as I was unable to post in the forum (it said "Anti-spam: Complete the task" (with nothing else)). Developer's home page wouldn't load for me, either; I was unable to determine any other method of contact apart from posting a review.
The forum website for CAPT had a major Vomit Session that pretty much hosed a ton of stuff and I have been working through getting it back online. It was during this timespan that you attempted to leave a post. Sorry for any frustrations you encountered.
As I write this, the main forum for CAPT is now 95% back online (minus pre-vs posts) and have re-enabled guest posting (moderated) there as well. Also the links in the CAPT Mozilla addons page have been updated to reflect the changes.

As of Firefox 37 (maybe even before), the following functionality no longer works:
- copy as plain text
- remove duplicate spaces
- remove duplicate blank lines
The only thing that is still working is:
- trim space around text (doesn't work on (non-breaking spaces) through)
I am sorry that you are having issues with the addon. I have just done some retesting on 37.0.2 on windows both with the keyboard shortcuts and with the right-click menu. Every was working as it had been before. That means that either there is an addon conflict somewhere in your setup, or something got corrupted in your install. It could be that a recent update to another addon you have has introduced new options that caused this issue for you.
I recommend that you uninstall/reinstall my addon, and if that doesn't work disable all your addons and re-enable them one at a time (starting with CAPT) testing after each one until you find the one causing the conflict.
