Post by Mattit »

Using FF 55.0.3 (32-bit)... The new version of ForcastFox is crap!

​It appears on random pages, part of the time in vertical mode (which I hate) and not collapsed, and part of the time in horizontal mode.

H​ORIZONTAL BAR​​:
  • * takes up WAY too much screen space.

    *​ ​appears much larger than the way it in the add-on bar, and is not in the add-on bar. It needs to be put back in the add-on bar. Vertical screen space needs to be reserved for the main browser content as much as can be.

    * Choosing to NOT display the 5-day, hourly, etc. buttons on the Horizontal bar has no effect.​
TEMP is only displayed for the days marked "text labels". The old version had it where it could be displayed WITHOUT the day names. That option should be brought back.

The COLON after the day short name should be NEXT TO the name, not spaced away from it. Current: "Fri : " ... Correct: "Fri: "

Weather is VERY important where we live. It can change without much notice, and go from a nice sunny day to a stormy, tornado-filled afternoon during the summer, and blizzard conditions to almost no evidence of snow in the winter. I have been using ForcastFox for several years because it matches my needs, and I can monitor several days at a glance. But this latest version is buggy and takes up A LOT of screen space. PLEASE put it back into the status/add-on bar (X-Marks is still using it, so you should still be able to as well), or at least have that as an option.

It appears that this extension is the cause of many people's slowdowns. I had disabled/uninstalled MANY other extensions, not ever thinking that it as ForcastFox because it was always great and never impacted performance. I guess I'm going to have to uninstall it to see if that solves my slowdown problems.

@Olek: This is what let me to believe that forecast fox is the culprit:
9 addons.webextension.forecastfox@s3_fix_version WARN Loading extension 'forecastfox@s3_fix_version': Reading manifest: Error processing permissions.2: Value "background" must either: must either [be one of ["clipboardRead", "clipboardWrite", "geolocation", "idle", "notifications"], must either [be one of ["<all_urls>"], match the pattern /^(https?|wss?|file|ftp|\*):\/\/(\*|\*\.[^*/]+|[^*/]+)\/.*$/, or match the pattern /^file:\/\/\/.*$/], be one of ["bookmarks"], be one of ["history"], be one of ["activeTab", "tabs"], be one of ["cookies"], be one of ["topSites"], be one of ["webNavigation"], or be one of ["webRequest", "webRequestBlocking"]], be one of ["alarms", "storage"], be one of ["browsingData"], be one of ["menus", "contextMenus"], be one of ["geckoProfiler"], be one of ["sessions"], be one of ["contextualIdentities"], be one of ["downloads", "downloads.open", "downloads.shelf"], be one of ["management"], be one of ["privacy"], be one of ["proxy"], be one of ["nativeMessaging"], be one of ["theme"], be one of ["identity"], or match the pattern /^experiments(\.\w+)+$/
But this is coming from Nightly, while the others are from 55.0.3. Go figure... If I've mislead you sorry to bother.

Sorry, don't waste your time with the ws: errors. It's uBlock. Will route to gorhil. The warnings for fcast were misleading.

This appears to have fixed my issue. Will keep an eye on it for you. Thanks!

Updated and tried re-enabling it...

It immediately brought Firefox to its knees to the point it is completely unusable. After openming a new tab to google.co, it takes about 10 SECONDS for the page to load.

Disabling Forecastfox, and Firefox screams - it takes less than a second for a new tab/google page to load, and all other pages load almost instantly as well.

I honestly am very upset that it has been Forecast all along that has been driving me crazy for the last few months.

I'm sorry, but I can not reproduce your problem: Forecastfox - enabled; Google-page load - 1..2 seconds
it may be a conflict with other add-on.
please temporarily disable the other add-ons and check again your problem

Disabling Forecastfox, and Firefox screams - it takes less than a second for a new tab/google page to load, and all other pages load almost instantly as well.

I honestly am very upset that it has been Forecast all along that has been driving me crazy for the last few months.
This is the same thing I said in my last post here in this thread. I had it disabled, but wasn't sure why. I got an update, tried it, and it bamboozled me for about a day, then I figured out it was Forecastfox, turned it off, and all was well again.

To anyone still running the Legacy version of this with the add-on bar support...
It's working in Firefox 54, but then in Firefox 55 it doesn't pop up on the add on bar.

Any work around on how to fix this?????
(it's not related to e10s, I already went through all that with Image Zoom - which I do have currently working)

It doesn't work in 56 either. Also Firefox completely hangs if I click on Options in the add on tab for forecastfox.
