What users should know about Jetpack add-ons [Firefox]


{0}

In this post I want to talk about Jetpack’s limitations and users’ expectations. Jetpack or Add-on SDK is a tool that makes it easy to make a Firefox add-on(a restartless add-on). If you know JavaScript, HTML and CSS, you can make an add-on. But you can’t do anything you want with Jetpack, not yet.

ContextMenuPlus 1.1 released


{0}

ContextMenuPlus 1.1 was released for recovering preferences that was stored by version 1.0. ContextMenuPlus 1.0 used Add-on SDK 1.4 which had a bug that stored preferences in the wrong place.

This recovery will be done automatically and does not require any action from users. If you are using ContextMenuPlus 1.0, the only thing you need to do is upgrading it to version 1.1.

ContextMenuPlus 1.0

ContextMenuPlus 1.0 was released 3 weeks ago, but I couldn’t write about it because I had to go to an urgent trip.

I rewrote some parts of the code and added two new features.

  • Preferences are available from Options/Preferences in Add-ons Manager. Previously preferences were available from Options panel. [You lose old preferences because of this change]

At first I wanted to make a replacement for Open Link Host, then I decided to add more features and options, so I wrote ContextMenuPlus.

With ContextMenuPlus, you can add some items to context menu(right-click menu). These items are useful for everybody, specially bloggers, web developers and web designers.
