Keeps asking for money.

No longer works in Thunderbird

Forcing tracking to see site in full page makes this a no go. Did not used to be this way.

Comments: My ad blocker is off. Yet I still get a banner that takes up a full third of the page asking me to turn it off.

Hi Timmy,


Thank you for using AccuWeather.com.

The reason you are continuing to see the popup is because of an embedded feature in your Firefox browser, called Tracking Protection. This is an adblocker that is built into the web browser and is undetectable from ad block detectors.

You are able to whitelist AccuWeather in your browser and allow ads on our website by a simple click. Go to AccuWeather.com like you normally would and look at the top of the page where you enter the web address. To the left, there is a shield. Click that shield and then click “Disable For This Site.” This will disable the adblock for AccuWeather.com only.

Been using this add-on for years this just started a couple of weeks ago.

I've installed and uninstalled Forecastfox (fix version) several time. I don't live in New York, and when I attempt to change location, Forecastfox shows a Google map error, that the program can't open Google Map. Since there is no way to change or add locations, Forecastfox is useless. I'm using a weather app with less functions, but at least it works.

I can not change the location. It says there is aqn error with google maps

You put in the wrong city. WHY? I want Decatur Illinois as this is where I live

This add on is useless. I cant even set the location, when I set it, it says "searching" but thats all it will do, no matter what. Garbage.

New interface is terrible, i love old interface with a four icons on menu bar always visible. I reverted to old version and blocked automatic updates until have option to back to old interface style.

please, put it back to bookmarks-toolbar, with old design!!!

The "fix version" DOES NOT WORK! The toolbar button just has an umbrella icon. When I go to the settings page and enter my zip code, it shows my city. And the next time I open Firefox, it does not work, again!
You need to FIX the "fix version"!

This option was removed it: go to Options in ForecastFox, you find that it places a ✥ (+) character for you to move the location. You can't move it using the normal Firefox way of moving such items.

I loved this addon but found through trial and error it was preventing some web page links from opening unless I refreshed the page I wanted to go to. If that is ever fixed, I will reinstall in the future.

v.2.4.8 don't work in FF+WF 55, why?

I can't use this addon anymore, because I had massive problems with different websites e.g. ebay. Links / buttons / searches were not working / opening anymore.
After deactivating every addon and activating them one for another, Forecastfox (4.5 on FF 54) was resulting that problems.

Radar causes pages to lag, but cannot be turned-off in options. With previous versions I could eliminate the radar/sattelite and enjoy everything else. After removing ForecastFox, my pages load smoothly. I've tried everything...but i guess there is no way to eliminate the radar GIF!

First THANK YOU for updating Forecastfox. But I don't care what Mozilla says about no more add-on bar after v57, someone will write code to add it back, and many of us simply won't upgrade to 57 until that's available again. If that means not updating FF until Nov 2018 or later, so be it.

ASide from this new vers not being in the add-on bar, I don't like the way it presents. The last version was PERFECT for my tastes... glad I archived a copy. Sorry, this one is not to my liking at all. :(

1)
In case of printing you have the bar on your hardcopy.
2)
You should use a fixed height for the text, otherwise it gets bigger and bigger in case you change the zoom and hides the bottom part of your site.
3)
If you have an input part on your site, it´s hidden by forecast

Thank your for fixing this addon which I used for years.
I totally agree to Shananiganeer and others who are missing the "One-glance-weather" in the statusbar or any other bar. I used to place it in the menubar.
Whithout this function it is useless for me and I have to uninstall it because of the monstrous popups and the need to push the mouse to its place.
PLEASE rebuild our addonbar functionality.

I'm aware that XUL is going away, but that is not the point. The point is, the current display of the forecast is intrusive and obscures the content of some sites. And that is ignoring the very annoying default display that pops up if my mouse goes over the icon. If there is truly no way to tuck everything away neatly in a toolbar, then the addon has lost all value for me and there is no coming back. I realize that this isn't your fault per se, but that doesn't excuse the poor design choices made to circumvent it.

FYI: I am currently using an older version of this addon with the Pale Moon browser.

EDIT: If I hide the forecast bar, I might as well just bookmark a weather site and uninstall the addon anyway... Please don't give bad suggestions to legitimate problems.

Maybe not your fault but if FF gets rid of the add-on bar I will switch browsers (trying to find a decent one now - no luck). If this add-on cannot use the add-on bar it is of no use to me. What a shame it has long been one of my favorite add-ons...

It didn't disappear, it just turned into a tiny icon on the URL bar (everything bar?) with the temperature in a bright, unreadable yellow, or was it green?, that hid the icon. I discovered that was it, have to click the icon, no more display on the add-on bar (using CTR for years), had to revert to version 2.4.8 to get it back. I hope version 4.1 provides the functionality and options I am used to, if I'm still using FireFox in November. Mozilla just keeps on taking away more options with a lot of the updates, I'm thinking of going back to Seamonkey. Maybe try PaleMoon, if it will download correctly this time. Firefox is turning into Chrome and I don't like Chrome.

I've been using this add-on for many years now. (First the original and then I shifted over to this fork). However, the recent update completely changed the UI.

I used this because I still have the status bar, and I have a lot of space there to spare. This add-on would give a lot of information. However, it has been compressed. I used to be able to hover the mouse over something that was always visible, to immediately get radar. Now it's buried, and takes more time to load. Obviously this is just one person's opinion, but it is no longer the add-on that it once was.

Used to be great. Now, not so much. Uninstalled. Can anyone recommend a good replacement?
