Rated 3 out of 5
by bulrush, 8 years agoThis is not a bad addon. It reads EPUB files like it says it does. But compared to the old addon, it has some issues caused by the new Firefox security. There is no longer a catalog of books that one has read in the past, so one can go back and continue reading that book. The Epubreader icon is only in the toolbar, and is no longer on the Tools menu of Firefox. I can't find any link to the Github project, I'm not sure it even has a Github project. There is no link in the toolbar icon to take one to the Mozilla addon page, the support page at http://www.epubread.com, or the Github page to enter issues.
I've read several EPUB books so far with no issues. It just needs a bit more polish as the author had to start over and rewrite this for Firefox 54.
When I make the Firefox window short and thin, then I can't see the bottom lines of the chapter. But this only happens when the FF window is too small. I'm going to have to use a standalone reader software because I can't find an addon that works with my ebooks.
EDIT: There are some EPUBs that are made by Pandoc which EPUBreader has a problem with. The problem is EPUBReader does not show the last few lines of the EPUB chapter if the Firefox window is not wide enough. This problem seems to stem from any EPUBs made by Pandoc.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Marty, 5 months agoDie Erweiterung öffnet EPUB Dokumente wie erwartet. Nur die Bedienung ist etwas umständlich weil man nach jedem Kapitel zurück muß zum Inhaltsverzeichnis. Man kann leider nicht blättern wie man es aus von den PDF Erweiterungen gewohnt ist. Das ist auch das Einzige was ich bemängel das die Bedienung umständlich ist. Ich finde man sollte die Bedienung erleichtern damit man nicht ständig zum Inhaltsverzeichnis zurück muß wenn man ein Kapitel zu ende gelesen hat.

- Rated 3 out of 5by wariat, 9 months agoKręci i kręci i nie otwiera, na dodatek ma jakieś dziwne uprawnienia nigdzie nie tłumacząc po co…
* Dostęp do danych użytkownika na wszystkich stronach
Dlaczego na wszystkich?
* Pobieranie plików i odczytywanie oraz zmienianie historii pobieranych plików
To jeszcze rozumiem
* Dostęp do aktywności przeglądarki podczas nawigacji
A to brzmi znów dziwnie
Być może one są ok, ale fajnie by było gdyby ktoś napisał po co one.
Anyway chciałem otworzyć epub z dysku… nie udało się. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18792596, 9 months ago

- Rated 4 out of 5by monkeypizza, 10 months agoI want to like it, but every time I try to use it, the button positioning is below the edge of my screen. I really wish it just had simple buttons for 1) save the file to DISK 2) navigate etc. We're SO close, please. Or some kind of non-custom UI which is guaranteed to work despite other extension/other things I have installed. Thanks!
