4.16 showing incorrect temperature. I setted in options to update every 1 minute, but accuweather shows different data.

ForecastFox: Temp. 27C (realfeel 33C), Humidity 49%
Accuweather page: Temp. 30C (realfeel 34C), Humidity 41%

probably you see different cities, but which have the same name.
please show a screenshot from the extension and link to accuweather

Same city, same country. Wouldn't post if this was the case.

See, still has problem (new version updated today):

Hi,
Thank you for this excellent extension.
However I have a problem with the export/import settings function you've recently implemented: the "save settings" button does nothing and the "copy settings" button doesn't copy settings in the clipboard although the popup message says OK (as in download manager s3!).
I'm running Firefox 60 ESR on W7 64-bit.
Is it a known bug or is it a problem with my system?

Realfeel, UV, visibility, pressure, humidity...all different. Thunderstorm vs partly sunny. And sometimes current temp can be off.

It seems that Accuweather uses different data for xml and for the site

link to site:
https://www.accuweather.com/en/rs/belgrade/298198/current-weather/298198

ForecastFox has only New York weather, and settings will not allow me to add a city or location. The options link “type in a city, zipcode or place of interest” opens a box, but typing a city name produces nothing. Meanwhile, I see links at the bottom left corner of the page flashing too fast to read, including http://www.s3blog.org and something about maps.???? and ???.googleapis.com. Suggestions?

Ghostery! That was the problem. Never used to be, but it's interfering with all kinds of stuff, so I disabled. it.

Hi,

I love your extension, really handy.

Now I got updated to Firefox 60.2 ESR Yesterday so I had to throw away (or find replacements) a lot of extensions. (fortunately NOT yours)

One was Speed Dial, and now I have installed the Extension Group Speed Dial (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefo ... pspeeddial) and I have set that as my Home Page.

Now the Weather Forecast isn't showing on that page (maybe a limitation of Firefox) but is it possible to show it there as well ??

Thx in advance.

Forecastfox WebExtensions Features / Limitations:
. Forecast bar will not be displayed on some sites from mozilla.org and google.com
. Forecast bar will not be displayed on sites that do not have pages, for example error 404 (page not found)
. Forecast bar will not be displayed on internal Firefox and GoogleChrome pages, for example about:addons , about:config , chrome://extensions/ , chrome://settings/ , etc.
. Forecast bar will not be displayed on the WebExtensions pages "moz-extension://...." , "chrome-extension://...."

But you can try this tips:

only for Firefox 57+
1. in the address bar: about:config
2. right-click to create a logical
3. setting name: privacy.resistFingerprinting.block_mozAddonManager
4. value: true

Mozilla changed the functionality in Firefox 60. Firefox 60 comes with a new preference called extensions.webextensions.restrictedDomains which lists domains that WebExtensions are not permitted to run on by default.
1. load about:config?filter=extensions.webextensions.restrictedDomains in the Firefox address bar
2. remove one, some or all of the domains listed under value to remove the restriction

Perfect !!! Will try that

Really appreciated !

Hi,

I run an extension called RECAP, which helps people use an American federal court website. Recently, a user discovered that Forecastfox (fix version) was breaking our extension. We do some basic work around uploads and things of that sort that stopped working.

Is there some way to detect your extension or that you can detect ours? It'd be great to be able to warn people about this issue. (I haven't yet been able to figure out what the root conflict is.)

Here's RECAP:
