As a follow up to my previous comment about firefox sync not working, I have observed that the passwords which are already present in the password manager before setting up sync, are sync'ed successfully as soon as sync is set up. However, any subsequent passwords added to the password manager don't seem to be sync'ed. Now, I am not sure whether this is a bug related to this plugin or firefox sync server (I'm running my own sync server). However, the simple fix for this is that whenever I want my passwords to be sync'ed I just select "Preferences" option, go to "Sync" tab and do a "Reset Sync ..." -> "Recommended: Merge this device's data with my Sync data" on my laptop. I then wait for a few minutes and all my passwords are sync'ed from my laptop to my sync server successfully. This then automatically gets sync'ed to my other devices where I am using Firefox.
