Firefox 55
I'm sure this is no surprise, but with the arrival of Fx 55, a couple of extensions have stopped working: Status-4-Evar (for which someone has already kindly provided a workaround), Toolbar Buttons, and QuickPage Zoom are the ones I've noticed so far.
Although every day is Judgment Day, I nonetheless feel like a room without a roof.

Re: Firefox 55
This seems to be a major bustage in nightly although it claims to have also been lifted to 54:

Re: Firefox 55
i think you'll find a lot of Extensions will Break an or fail to work at all from 55 onwards. , unless the Author of those Extensions have Ported there Extensions over to WebExtensions. or consider your Favorite Extensions DEAD an Burried

Re: Firefox 55
As mentioned, (with the help of "Chris000001"), I've now got the Status-4-Evar extension working. I think the problem is related to https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1335877, but I'm not quite sure.
Anyway, I've just installed the YouTube Video and Audio Downloader in Fx55, but the icon appears in the navigation bar rather than in the status bar, where I want it. I've been fooling around with it for awhile, but have been unable to find a way to do it. Can someone help with this, please?
Another interesting quirk is that the icons for one of the extensions that I thought had stopped working because the icon was gone when I got the statusbar working again (QuickPage Zoom) turns out to have been relocated on the addon bar (logical I guess). I wanted to place it on the status bar but couldn't, so I clicked a button or message or something that said "move to menubar", which I did, but now it's gone with the wind. Anyone know how to get it back. I've gone to to the add-on Options, but couldn't find a solution.
Thanks very much.
