My Reviews

LightningButton

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

The Calendar and New Event buttons work. I don't know about the others, I don't use the tasks so didn't check those. It's nice to have the New Event button and to remove the Tasks button. Thanks for this add-on.

KeeBird

Rated 1 out of 5 stars

TB 68.2.2
Blank options page. Description doesn't give any details. I don't think it's doing anything.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (2.0.1). 

Colored Folders

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

I used this for years but can't add it to thunderbird now because it is not compatible with TB 68. Update "first week of Oct." What year? Waiting for it.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (1.2.5.2). 

Add-ons Manager - Version Number (discontinued)

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Works perfectly on Seamonkey 2.49.1 on Linux.

Focus Last Selected Tab

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Just installed in Waterfox 56.0.1 Kubuntu 14.04 (Linux). Works perfectly. Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (1.0.3). 

Restart

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Works on Android as described.

Provider for Google Calendar

Rated 1 out of 5 stars

I fail to understand the need for this. Lightning already syncs with Google calendars. I've bee using Lightning for years and never needed this addon for Lightning to sync with Google calendars.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (3.3). 

Private Anonymous Search (Google + Bing + HTTPS)

Rated 1 out of 5 stars

Cannot disable WOT in the settings. Get "No more search results try Google or Bing". Going through this and still having to use another search engine is a waste of time and effort. All other search engines give results, and I don't have to have WOT.

Compact Menu 2

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Works as described on FF 32. Using Kubuntu 14.04.

My Title bar did not change at all.

Classic Toolbar Buttons [Tb24-58] (discontinued)

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

It works for what I wanted (Colored buttons instead of gray) with default and stylish themes on Kubuntu.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (1.4.2.1-signed). 

SeaTab-X-2

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Thankyou.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (0.3). 

Slim Add-ons Manager

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Works in Seamonkey. I used to use Cleanest Addon Manager but it doesn't work in SeaMonkey and FF is getting too much like IE and Chrome.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (10.1-signed). 

Forecastfox Weather

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

I've been using this for years and now (after FF update today, 5/6/14) FF keeps removing it from the addon bar (I added the extension to get the addon bar back). Still works great but I have to keep putting it back on addon bar. FF 29.0, Kubuntu 14.04.

FoxTab

Rated 1 out of 5 stars

Installed 1.4.10. Still doesn't work, but interfers with other addons.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (1.4.9.1-signed).  This user has a previous review of this add-on.

NewScrollbars [Tb 10-56] (discontinued)

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

I like it. 5 stars.
Features I'd like to see: Background color gradient in Customizable v2 and the option of arrows for the buttons, with color and color gradient still applicable.
It's still five stars, even without those features.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (1.2.1.1-signed). 

DownThemAll!

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

This is the best download manager I can find.

I had the size mismatch happen to me once. It was because the file said it was 3.9GB but it was only 3.6GB.
I found another source for the download and it worked fine. The file really was supposed to be 3.9GB. This may not be the source of others mismatches but it is worth checking when they get them. It might be as easy to solve as it was for me.

I also have no problem browsing the interweb while downloading. But I never download more than half-a-dozen at once (they finish downloading faster than I can add new ones).

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (2.0.16.1-signed). 

FoxTab

Rated 1 out of 5 stars

This used to be a beautiful Addon. But now it simply doesn't work. No icon in toolbar. Clicking icon in statusbar or context menu does nothing. Keyboard shortcuts do nothing. This is in desperate need of updating. I am using FF 28.0 in Kubuntu 13.10.

Config Descriptions

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Looking good.

Active Stop Button

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

This is a necessary extension, IMO, and update 1.5.1 fixed the problem with EscCloseTab compatibility. Outstanding.

Active Stop Button

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

The update to version 1.5.0 stopped EscCloseTab from working so I had to revert to version 1.4.10. Other than that, I think it's a great extension.

3/8/2014

Thank you for the fix. It rates a five.
