- Rated 5 out of 5by Thomas, 6 years agoThank you sir! Works exactly as advertised. If something is not working for you then why don't you watch the tutorial video? The dev literally posted it in his description. Thank you for making an awesome addon!
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12487210, 6 years agoWorks as advertised: very simple, very fast. Does what it should do, without any bells and whistles.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14701193, 6 years agoHi
Thank you for this great addon.
it took me a lot of searches to find this great addon.
I also used it to download several PDFs :)
Please also add an option so we can set our own filter by a custom format (.*) for ex. .md or .aac or .epub or .ttf or ...
Thank you very much
===========================
Update: I found the custom setting, Thanks :3 - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14404628, 6 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14590184, 6 years agoPrabhu, ignore the one star haters who cant provide a constructive comment.
This is a great plugin. The only downside is that I didnt have to write my own scraper. :-) This plugin made it simple to download a bunch of pdfs.
Kudos and thanks. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14907186, 6 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12518081, 6 years agoso far it looks fine, though 2 things i am missing:
- a context menu (right mouse click) entry.
- queuing
maybe not possible.
thanks a lot. :) - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14481203, 6 years agoThis is the most effective add-ons when it comes to downloading stubborn embedded audio on using Firefox. I tried series of add-ons with high recommendations but non was able to do it. I am really happy for this!
My advice is for you to advertise this add-on on many forum because many people don't know that this wonderful stuff exists. Make comments on forums like quora, NAIRALAND, and other sites hosted found on googleDeveloper response
posted 6 years agoThanks for the review and suggestions. I do appreciate your counsel for making this more popular! - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14291523, 6 years agoWorks perfectly. Also I'm very happy there's an option to add custom file extensions.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14304661, 7 years agoThanks so much for developing, sharing, and updating this add-on, Prabhu! It saves time and hassle having to script something up.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14171489, 7 years agoDoes exactly what I want (downloading multiple pdfs from a site, where I have to login first), without being distracting.
Perfect!
Thanks! - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14061856, 7 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Skevos Mavros, 7 years agoSo far so good - it scans a page for links, even an RSS XML page of links to a podcast's episodes, and lets me download them. The ability to shift-select a subset of links would be handy, but other than that - it just works!
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13967481, 7 years agoExactly what i was looking for!
But it has a bug and i would really love to see it getting fixed soon.
If you use a custom extension like "jpg" because in the list is only "jpeg", then after downloading the files they will be in the downloads folder with the name "download" and no file extension.
So after downloading 20 images you end up with "download(1)" ... "download(20)".
If these at least had .jpg in the end would be great :)
Also sometimes it doesnt download the images and gets stuck ('pending downloads'), a second try would set all downloads complete which raises the question what went wrong the first attempt.
59.0.2 (64-Bit)
-- edit --
win10 / firefox was clean install since i use chrome for dev
i can't reproduce it either, the site seems not to want me to scrape their images and changed their image link behaviour. Nvm then, i tested the custom suffix feature on a major tech site and it worked. no bugs.Developer response
posted 7 years agoThanks for the review and with respect to issues:
#1. Downloaded files being saved like download(1) download(2) etc..
Not reproducible.
Could you check on this thread - it requires some plugins to be removed - https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1200035
and let me know if it solves the issue. If it persists you can let me know the webpage which has this issue and if you are on Windows?
#2. Downloads not being completed - pending downloads
Throttling should help. Will soon get this addressed in next version. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13962849, 7 years agoMuy bueno en descargas, no es detectado por los servidores y no lo bloquean.
- Rated 5 out of 5by kido.resuri, 7 years agoGreat extension! It would be even more better if the user could set the download folder. If Firefox is set to ask for the download location each time, the plugin's downloads' location is always asked, resulting in a crash-like state when downloading many items. Please add an option to download to a specific folder and don't ask the location when downloading.
