Can not seem to get shake or anything else working on firefox 48.0.1, shows recent quakes but will not go to any page, shake browser, or even go to home page from about box.
Questa recensione riguarda una versione precedente (8.2.0) del componente aggiuntivo.I'd be happy to help troubleshoot and work together to fix the problem, but the review section isn't designed for that. Send me (Leif) an email. You can find it on the add-on page here. I've had v8.2.0 installed locally on browsers from v38 through v53 (Nightly) and hadn't noticed the problems described. Maybe I didn't notice them, maybe it's dependent on any number of other factors: OS, language, browser setting, usage, related to another add-on, a bug in code, etc.

Any chance of adding Spanish language ??
Questa recensione riguarda una versione precedente (8.2.0) del componente aggiuntivo.I'd be happy to help with technical support, but this is a review section not intended for tech support. If you are willing to help translate, send me an email (it's on the add-on page here). I can send you a list of all the things that need translation. There were 3 old partially translated Spanish files, which I removed with version 8.1.0. These were: es_AR (Spanish - ARGENTINA), es_ES (Spanish - SPAIN) and eu_ES (Basque - SPAIN). I do not know if there are many differences for simple things like name of week, month, etc.

This would be such a cool app if it wasn't so irritating.
I do not like that when there is an earthquake event that triggers an alert, the Firefox window opens up, even if I am not using Firefox. For example, if I am typing in a word editor, it interrupts my work, forcing me to re-minimize Firefox to get back to my work.
I do not like that when there is an event that triggers an alert, the Firefox window opens up into full screen mode. I prefer to have my Firefox window sized and located in a certain place and every time there's an event, I have to resize the window.
I do not like that when the window shakes to alert me to an earthquake event, it does not show an icon or a message on any status bar that I can find (even though it says that's what it should so in the settings).
Hello,
Your points are valid and have been heard and taken into consideration. I have observed those same things myself.
Suggestions:
Until I can address these problems, you can change the options that determine how eQuake Alert! reacts. On the Options dialog, under the Alert Methods, you may want to choose "None". This will not shake the browser. This will not open an Alert box. And it will not change the window state (maximize, fullscreen, foreground, etc). Please keep in mind, these "intrusive" options were originally intended for people who specifically wanted to be notified, no matter what they were doing (i.e. to know immediately if a loved one across the world is in danger, or if they themselves may be facing a tsunami). But the options are there to remain unobtrusive. In fact, I myself use those "quiet" options, for the same reasons you have mentioned.
Also, about the status bar, that is a well known and beloved browser user interface element that was removed by Mozilla with Firefox 29.0, nicknamed "Australis", which generally received a lot of negative feedback, which Mozilla completely ignored. Anyways, this add-on was written mostly for status bar use, as are many others which I currently use (NoScript, AdBlock Plus and Forecastfox Weather (fix version)). The solution is fairly easy, and there are two well-written add-on options. You only need to use one or the other, depending what you want.
1) If you like the Australis appearance, but all you want is the status bar back again, then try "The Addon Bar (Restored)" ( https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/the-addon-bar/ ).
2) If you do not like the Australis appearance at all (like me), then you can use Classic Theme Restorer ( https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/classicthemerestorer/ ), which restores the look and feel of the entire interface back to FF 28.0, including the status bar.
About me:
I have recently joined this project as a developer, and have read over all the reviews, good and bad, and taken notes. Until about 2 months ago, I was just a user of this add-on, but then I decided to stop complaining about the problems and actually do something to fix them, so I stepped up and took on this task, without being asked to, nor asking for anything in return. The creator, Priyan, recognized my motivation and determination, and graciously accepted me as a developer, to take on most of the coding tasks, as his time is needed elsewhere.
Last week, I released an update, version 8.1.0, which fixes the feed format, and addresses numerous "invisible" problems which will make future updates possible. The Geomap feature was disabled (it was broken anyways) to more quickly restore the add-on to a working state. However, the Geo Filter functionality remains intact. Geomap will return in a future version.
As I am just learning about this crazy add-on development environment, I became aware that the low level API it relies upon (XUL/Overlay) WILL BE REMOVED later this year. So I am focusing efforts on migrating the add-on to newer APIs, otherwise we are back to no add-on at all. As I do so, then I become more familiar with the code, and user-interface changes like this will be easier, and my next priority.
When I eventually migrate from the XUL/Overlay API to the Addons-SDK API (and beyond), the button will be changed to appear in the location bar by default, like all add-on buttons in FF 29.0+ (Australis and newer). However, it can then be configured and dragged anywhere, including the status bar, which is what I have done with my NoScript, AdBlock Plus and Forecastfox Weather (fix version). Furthermore, I plan to use the some new SDK API features which will let me implement a badged and possibly a two-state icon. The icon will change color or appearance in some way, and also have a little box with a number in it, corresponding to the number of new events since last viewed, i.e. [5].
There may be other options available that I have yet to explore. But I have invested some time getting oriented with the basic SDK API features to get ideas for several ways to improve the user experience. Feedback such as yours is invaluable in this process, so thank you for taking the time to write.
Again, let me reassure you that as a user, I noticed the same problems you did. As a developer, I have spent considerable time researching and asking questions (i.e. on StackOverflow) about many programming tasks to address all of the issues you mentioned (and several more in addition). For example, I have learned how to more precisely control window state changes such as minimize, maximize, normal, full screen and restore, in preparation to making these changes, in all three of the APIs (old, interim and upcoming). It' a steep learning curve to learn not only 1, but 3 APIs, simultaneously (XUL/Overlay [deprecated, soon to be removed], SDK/jpm [deprecated, to be removed next year] and WebExtensions [to replace everything sometime next year, maybe]). It's a lot to take in, so please understand that and have patience, or fire up a text editor and come help! ;-)
P.S. I've set up a Google Groups mailing list / forum for eQuake Alert! ( https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/equake-alert ) Feel free to send additional feedback there for a proper discussion. For now, that will be the place for feedback, bug reports, ideas for features, suggestions, questions, help, or contribute to development efforts, etc. A mailing list or forum is far better suited for these sorts of discussions, rather than Facebook or AMO reviews. :-)

Much better than a year ago when it was useless for so long.
Great - Now page appears at USGS new page.
However backboard is missing for right click menu - invisible against screensaver.
Therefore over words on the page - unable to read - mix of words.
However getting the list of earthquakes do have a backboard for pleasant reading.- Thanks for reading this

It's a very useful extension.Problem:Geomap-not save custom zone ! Suggestion: add EMSC (European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre) list, EMSC displays many more earthquakes in the world and faster compared to USGS

I just checked the list of recent quakes and it's up to date so...I guess it works now. So we're back in business :D Thanks.

Along with updating the USGS page since it is being phased out, can you add an option to change the depth from kilometers to miles?

Good addon but when will it link to the current USGS page? Right now it goes to a page USGS is phasing out.

Was working great... until today when I get this message:
"This web site needs a different Google Maps API key."
I'm (still) using FF3.5

Coolest add-on for those with a soft spot for earthquakes. Several members of my family live in quake-prone areas and I want to be the first to know if their home is hit by a big one. The add-on does exactly as descibed.

1st, I can create a new geomap item but it is not being able to remember a selected polygon.
2nd, after a shake of browser it should restore the original state of the browser, at this moment it try to keep the size of the window same but a maximize window become un maximize which is inconvenient.

...appreciate this developer being so responsive and actually doing all the work to bring it up to speed with nee Firefox versions?
Please consider sending a donation as i am, any amount will do if enough people show their appreciation for his work and responsiveness, BECAUSE THIS CAN SAVE LIVES.
About a month ago, I had left a review appealing to this developer to please update this, as Firefox was leaving it in it's dust being limited to 3.5.x, however, after a little patience on my part, and subscribing to this thread... I got notification that it HAS been updated, and it will now work with current versions of Firefox. Well done and thank you!
I am in for a $20.00 donation for this developer's excellent foresight of its use, as well as being responsive to those reviewing his Application, and it is my way of showing gratitude for having taken the time to respond, by both updating the program, and replying to the review, as both were greatly appreciated.
Won;t you also contribute to help keep this current and maybe expand on its capabilities? I am sure it will be worth your while and donation in the long run when the next earth shattering record breaking earthquake becomes more predictable if you are watching the little events that lead up to those big ones, and if the Honshu Japan Quake had NOT been on the ocean's floor, it would have been much more devastating than it was for the Japanese people living in the area, and any further south could have resulted in USA Tsunami warnings and from this notification, MY friends, on the west coast, were afforded much earlier preparation time should an alert for tsunami have been posted, because they were WATCHING for them, having been alerted to the earthquakes by me three days before the 9.0 had finally topped all known records. BTW Honshu Japan is STILL experiencing between 4.6M and 5.4M multiple times a day, up to about two weeks ago when they finally seem to have tapered off to being more infrequent!
Thank you for reading my reviews!
TSG!

I LOVE this add-on, but it isn't working with my older Firefox anymore. I HATE the new Firefox and refuse to load it. The last time I did, I had to reload windows. Why isn't this working with 3.5?
