Fixes for extensions broken since new addon manager landed

[skryabin]

The most appreciated script by me - GoogleMonkeyR - has stopped working with the latest nighly build of Minefiled (20110211)
It's a mystery, yesterdays builds still working.
To you who still havn't tried this masterpiece: http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/9310

Still broken, with greasemonkey and scriptish I get the same error in the console:

Error: GM_xmlhttpRequest.toString is not a function

I suppose every other script that uses that kind of function could be broken too
but I can't understand if it's a GM/Scriptish bug or a minefield one

Is there an working add-on for Firefox 4 that gives "Copy tab url" option in context menu?
I tried all of them, but none are working. (even with forcing to work)

[zegames]

Tab Mix Plus has this feature to enable at options > menu > tab context menu > copy tab url.

Thank you!

#list-view > #addon-list .date-updated {
display: -moz-box !important;
}

Thank You!
Works fine with Stylish in Firefox 4beta12pre id:20110210030400

I see a fix for Forecastfox in the first post, but does it also apply for Forecasbar Enhanced? That's my favorite weather addon and it's dead on FF 4.

Did FastestTube just break? It was working yesterday.

[boersenfeger]

...and it's dead on FF 4.

The German Developer will not change it for Firefox 4. See here in the German Firefox-Forum!

I just downloaded a 4.0pre build for the first time (FXG5-4.0b13pre-2011.02.23) to try it out.

I'm running it on a dual-2.5 GHz PowerMac G5 under Mac OS X 10.5.8.

For the moment, I only have the following Extensions enabled:

• Echofon 1.9.7.3
• Greasemonkey 0.9.1
• FoxTab 1.4.1
• User Agent Switcher 0.7.3
• Tab Mix Plus 0.3.8.5pre.110221a (temporarily disabled)

FoxTab and Tab Mix Plus (when enabled) seem to work fine.

But Echofon isn't showing up anywhere. I don't see any error messages in Minefield -> Tools -> Error Console.

Anyone else seeing this? Where is Echofon supposed to appear? It used to show up in the bottom right under Namoroka 3.6.13 I think, but there's no border or anything to display the blue text bubble (or the Greasemonkey monkey, for that matter) in Firefox 4.

You need to enable the addon bar. (View-Toolbars-Addonbar)

If the old Statusbar icon doesn't appear on the Add-on Bar then it needs to be updated for Firefox 4:
• Echofon 1.9.7.3

D'oh. There it is now. Thanks! (Why did that default to being "Off"? It's set to "On" in my existing Namoroka setup.)

Thanks. If I install a post-0.9.1 Nightly from that Greasemonkey repo, will it interfere with my existing Extension setup that is used by Namaroka 3.6.13 & Firefox 3.6.13?

You really should be using separate profiles for 3.6 and 4, if you're going to switch back and forth. They have it set up so that upgrades from 3.6 to 4 should work fine, but going back and forth risks corruption.

It defaulted to "off" because it's an entirely new toolbar that by default is not visible unless something (other than items in the compatibility shim) has been put there by an extension.

That certainly makes sense in retrospect, but when I first ran 4.0beta13pre it didn't offer to set up a new Profile for me.

Was I supposed to be smart enough to add one to ~/Library/Application\ Support/Firefox/profiles.ini ahead of time in Namoroka 3.6.13 as "[Profile1]" or something, and pray that it offer me the choice of which Profile to use on startup?
