AdBeaver

Rated 1 out of 5 stars

Good luck.

I'll start reconsidering my anti-Web advertizement policy when :

1- Malvertizement will be a fact of the past ;
2- Tracking advertizement will have been repudiated ;
3- Advertizement (all supports included) will respect the product (true, reliable information), respect the consumer (true, reliable information and no brain-washing), respect the understanding of life which is that true quality is not always more but always better.

Till then a cheap coin won't make me get excited, believe me or not.

pass-manager

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

Passwords is one thing, the vault is another, indeed. Hence, this add-on focuses on the latter and calls attention.

But how does this work in practice? How are passwords managed once kept in the pass-manager vault? Are they called in the same way as with Firefox Password Manager (double-click on the input field)? Do add-ons relying on Firefox Password Manager keep on working with pass-manager ('Secure Login' for instance)?

And what about the configuration options in about:config?
Quote:
"There are some configuration options exposed via the about:config interface. The scope is extensions.passmanager.*."

Could those options be detailed? Moreover being accessible only within about:config?
Now, maybe is this add-on reserved for pros but then please mention it.
Thanks!

Neutral 3 rating since I haven't tested it for above mentioned reasons.

GenderSwapper

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

Funny!
But may lead to inconsistencies such as when reporting Bo Diddley's "I'm a man" lyrics :

"I'm a man,
I spell M-A-N, man."

would become,

"I'm a woman,
I spell M-A-N, woman."

We do remain human :)

Clean Links

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

I'm missing this most valuable add-on now that I've just installed Firefox 36.

We had been warned that some add-ons could be broken with new FF 36; unfortunately Clean Links 2.6.1.0 is of the lot : toolbar icon disappeared, add-on is ineffective.

Please, please & please (3 please, please) do update beloved#2 Clean Links to be compatible with beloved#1 (Firefox, who else?!)

Great add-on.

EDIT - Clean Links 2.7 is OK with Firefox 36!
Thanks (only one thanks but extra big) to the developer for his excellent add-on and for his outstanding reaction speed to update 'Clean Link'. All is for the best.
I did say thanks did I?

Menu Wizard

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Menu Wizard's 2.05 new option 'Hide icons in all menu items' works fine with the icons except when the icon is a check-mark for an on/off (e.g. 'Enabled') status of a function/extension.

For instance, in Tools/Greasemonkey there is a 'Enabled' label which is checked when Greasemonkey is active of course. The check-mark disappears when Menu Wizard option 'Hide icons in all menu items' is activated.

Hiding the menu icons has been tried with userstyles and lead to the same problem.

Otherwise, great add-on and everyday Firefox companion.

EDIT : I have never -- never -- seen a developer react as quickly as Oleksandr, menu Wizard's daddy : WOW! Here I call him SuperCoder faster than light. It's a bird, it's a plane, no it's SuperCoder! -- Of course, fast 'n' good : 2.06 resolves the problem stated by my comment...
Gosh, that was sooo fast :)

Menu Wizard

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Excellent add-on I've been using since its start, but a major issue here in its 2.02 version with another add-on :
Personal Menu (Personal Firefox Button) 6.2.0 (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/personal-menu/)

The Personal Firefox Button does not unfold anymore. That is the "old" Firefox button, not the new Australis one.

Very first time I encounter a compatibility issue between theses two add-ons. Reverted to Menu Wizard 2.01 at this time. 2.01 runs perfectly well.

EDIT : Menu Wizard 2.03 fixes 2.02 issue.
Now that was a quick draw, faster than the fastest shooter in the whole Wide West :)
A quick and precise hit : success!
Thanks for correcting so quickly, worth a record in the Guiness!

Date on Thunderbird

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

China is a grand and beautiful country, unfortunately too many of us do not read or speak its language.
I believed there would be a local (or at least English) version because of the title of this add-on, because of the 'statusbar' explicitly written in English.

QuickNote

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Thanks to Larashots's elegant wording in pointing out my mistake in a previous comment regarding the availability of including the source url.

I had relied on a wrong understanding of Nemo's post when he stated "Like adding source url, an option to add the date and time at the end of copied text would be nice." assuming source url was not an option, together with this option not clearly mentioned in the developer's presentation of his add-on. I have to improve my English!

As an off-topic remark : I notice a world-wide trend concerning all domains to inform the reader, the user of the content of a product, of an extension, of a script... as if, maybe, doing so could appear as a begging towards the user, could be interpreted as a will to "sell" oneself (even one's free application!). I see this everywhere, when you are condemned to try in order to know what could be simply included in a basic resume. Maybe also are we so fed up of excessive and obtrusive caressing of advertizement that we fear providing information be considered as a form of... advertizement : when ads inform and inform only, respectfully, then there is no problem.

Express yourself! if this wording is not too much of an order :) when only a wish.

Anyway, QuickNote runs fine. Perhaps a search option within the notes could be a plus, even if reading a note with a text editor allows that search. That's all, promised :)

QuickNote

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

I haven't tested yet QuickNote, I would if it included an option to add the copied text's source and date of the copy. This seems essential to me. In a hyper-informative world the source is always indispensable IMO.

Now, one can use another add-on such as QuoteURLText (available here on AMO), copy the text including it's source a date, then paste it in QuickNote, but that makes QuickNote's 'Copy to QuickNote' feature useless.

So, if QuickNote adds this option to include source and date, I'd be the first to grab it.

Four stars because of this lack, assuming it is certainly totally efficient with what it offers at this time.
