its same issue i helped debug before , the icons revert to default after awhile im on 56.0

It doesn't keep the settings (location vertical options etc) after update (or it just reset itself periodically). I have to change every settings again.

Can this be used to restore forecastFox to the addon bar?

I do enjoy this thats why I gave it 5 stars. I just miss the ability to be able to move the status bar of the weather from the bottom to the top. Could you consider bring this feature back.

That said, Mozilla products, particularly its (Firefox) browser is hopelessly bad year after year. It is now incompatible with one of the best weather add-ons. There's nothing we can do.

All add-ons will remain compatible with this Firefox fork, including Forecastfox 2.8.4. If you try it, you won't leave it.

Now, it is working again. (No idea why)

Hello,
Thanks for your job, it's the best weather extension, very simply to use.

But i have a suggestion for the new weather bar: In the last versions (2.4.8 in Firefox especially) with the addon bar, all weather informations (7 days with nights) was on one line.
Now with the new version and new bar (web extension), to display all info (days and nights), it takes 2 lines.
Would it be possible to make it possible to have the information on a single line as was the case before with the addon bar ? The font size seems to be larger and so the 7 days of forecasts take 2 lines instead of one before.

I now use Opera as a browser because I don't like what Firefox becomes (deletion of extensions, java, flash player, ...) and Operar is lighter. Is theren't on this browser an addon bar similar to the one we had on Firefox?

Sorry for my bad English, i use google translate^^ (thanks for your google translate extension in firefox, it's perfect !)

Greetings from France ;)

Was tired of part or all of aniweather being broken all the time so I decided to look for something new. Saw a suggestion to try Forecast fox & I couldn't be happier. Love the look, layout & multitude of options, although I only changed two the location & Icons because I liked the defaults on all the others. Keep up the good work I love this add-on. :-)

Dear Developer,

Thanks for all your hard work. This extension has been great!

As Mozilla seems to be making future development/updates of really great extensions “precarious” I wanted to find out if this update will be problematic or breakdown in the future? In other words should I stay where I’m at?

I’m currently using ver. 2.48. Everything is working, including location. I’ve disabled auto updates because new FF compliance's have already broken a few extensions (or will cause breakdown in the future). The first example of this coming to mind is/was X-Notifier. The last two versions are FF compliant, but don’t function. They…. suck. Not the developers fault, he warned months ago this would happen with Moz changing policies and updates. Yet everyone initially screamed at him when it broke down. There was a temporarily a work around, rolling back 2 versions. This made everything work again, but then with another FF update, even the legacy version only partly works.

So In regards to your extension, would you recommend updating to the latest version, or stay with the previous one which I’m running?

My Machine; Window 7 64 bit, latest FF 64 bit version for windows.

One more issue, and if you don’t have time for this one no problem.

I’ve read that if users install FF 52 ESR (I’m not sure what it is and if it’s secure), all legacy versions will work. Wouldn’t using a legacy version of FF, as well as extension present a security risk?

This really sucks for FF developers and users. I really hate Chrome, it’s heavy on resources, super proprietary, nosy and intrusive as hell. I have no idea why Moz is killing the best part of FF, the extensions. Especially security and utilities extensions. The other stuff I could care less.

Also, if Moz is going to make life difficult to impossible (depending on which developer you’re talking to, and their extension) for developers, why don’t you all go to Opera? I’m betting a lot of people would follow.

It’s my second choice browser, and although it’s Chromium based, it’s lightweight and even has a VPN built in. But they have mostly lame apps.

You’re opinion/feedback on this whole Moz turning FF into Chrome and how to proceed would be appreciated!

Thanks for every thing!

Thanks for a fine addon. They should rename Aniweather to brokenbuggyweather

Although I was unhappy with the removal of the status bar option, I knew there was one more option I could try. So I moved the Forecastfox icon to the sidebar. It is still handy although not as visually accessible as having it laid out on bottom of my window.

Today I installed the latest iteration and now I have not only the sun icon in the sidebar but an umbrella at the lower right of my window.

I don't want the umbrella as the sidebar option gives me all I need with the same effort. How do I get rid of it???

ETA: Thanks, Olesandr. That did the trick. Upgrading my rating.

Thanks for fixing it !!

Updating my review to 5 stars. The dev replied and explained the decision to move away from the old version of the addon. Additionally the new version now has the extended forecast when you click on it, which is great. I really like where it is going, thanks for the hard work!

It is OK for now, but the radar should be displayed in native resolution. It looks terrible now.



Of course, you should resize/rearrange the other divs to keep everything within the 800x600 no-scrollbar limit.

Also, when the addon updates, it resets all the location to NY. I relied on your addon and the weather/temperature indicated had nothing to do with the reality of my location :)

Another potential improvement: currently there is no way to distinguish between weather alerts and connection failed, both display the temperature in red. You may consider using a different shape or different color altogether.

So happy to see Forecastfox back in its old form!!! Living in Kansas, sometimes it is crucial to have weather at our fingertips and Forecastfox does that for us!!! Is there any way to move it back to the top of my page?

Well done! I can't believe you were actually able to revive the status bar! Thanks!

Thank you , and congratulations on your excellent work.5x5x5...star

Mon extension de Firefox est de retour !
Ce n'est pas encore parfait (la barre apparait en bas de page web, mais disparait sur certaine page, dont celle-ci).
Mais je trouve cela bien mieux qu'un minuscule petit bouton.
Merci à l'auteur de cette extension d'être aussi réactif !

Great add-on - up to Version 2.4.8 when combined with The Addon Bar (restored)

If you want to keep addon behavior as before:

1. Install The Addon Bar (restored) from following location -
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/user/GiT/

2. Install ForecastFox (fixed) Version 2.4.8 from following location -
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/forecastfox-fix-version/versions/

3. Go to Tools - Addons - Extentions - Forecastfox (fix version) - More - and set automatic update to Off

As noted in previous review, chill out & please don't blame developer for changes made by FF developers.

Forecastfox is a GREAT add-in. I get a week's worth of weather info at a glance - always there, always updated.
However, I have no good things to say about Firefox development which seems to want to trash Forecastfox every couple of updates. I stopped updating Firefox for a while because it kept killing off Forecastfox. Now, it's done it again.
Why would Firefox deliberately keep kicking its most popular add-ins into the dumpster? I got onboard with Firefox at Version 1.5, but I'm looking for a better alternative now.

tout simplement génial merci aux développeur me donne bien la météo de chez moi

langsam gehn mir die ständigen änderungen (eine davon ist schuld dass in KOMMENDEN ff versionen keine statusbar möglich ist) gewaltig wohin. wenn ich einen chrome ähnlichen browser will dann installier ich mir chrome , will ich aber nicht !

in der jetzigen form ist das addon unnütz denn da kann ich gleich auf einen link klicken.

bis der entwickler hoffentlich eine lösung gefunden hat , könnt ihr euch die alte version wieder installieren
https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/forecastfox-fix-version/versions/

und abgesehn davon , wusstet ihr dass man forecastfox auch in die tableiste schieben kann ?
