- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13433377, 7 years agoMe gusta que se puede descargar rápidamente, y usando filtros, múltiples archivos. Es una excelente alternativa a DownThemAll. El complemento funcionó como esperaba. Es útil y fácil de usar para mí. Un problema para mí es no he podido ampliar la ventana o abrir en otra pestaña, porque cuando los URL tienen muchos caracteres no se llega a ver completamente el nombre. Sugiero utilizar este complemento para descargar múltiple links.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13669046, 7 years agoThe UI sometimes glitches. Sometimes I see what seems to be unlocalized text in {{}} - Brackets.
Clicking on the blue button next to the path starts the download, and does not open a file selection dialog, as i would expect.
Otherwise ok, - Rated 4 out of 5by Udayan, 7 years agoWorks fine and fast with PDF's
Some learning: that the download folder path needs to be a sub-folder of Dowlnload Star folder
Question to developer: how do I get it to download more than 30 links on a page? This seems to be an internal limit - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13646878, 7 years agoWorks fine for me. What I had missed most of DTA was the bulk download function for links which I found in Download Star. Thank you for your effort in programming an alternative add on.
First I had problems with actually starting the download (mentioned by many users before). Here is what I did to make it happen:
Give a full path (e.g. "C:\Temp\01\") in the destination field did not work (regardless of trailing \ or not). Take the default download destination specified in Firefox' preferences as given! Even if you set firefox' preferences to "ask" Download Star will refer to what was previously set as default. Any phrase typed into the destination field will create a seperate subfolder where the files are stored, leave it blank does not seem to work.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13567332, 7 years agoIt's not as full-featured as DTA but it does the trick for me. Unlike other posters, it absolutely does download the full resolution images so I'm not sure if the other posters were using an older version or had their settings muddled up. My only complaint is that I wish the plugin gave some feedback indicating how far along the downloads have progressed. DTA had a progress bar for each image but even one big progress bar and an audio "chime" (like DTA) when it completes would do the trick. Or maybe the icon animates or something. I don't know. Just anything to show it's actually working. For the longest time I thought the plugin wasn't working but when I checked the destination folder, it was all there.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13495400, 7 years agoI just tried this extension. I am giving it 4 stars because the first multi image download task I gave it DID load the target images from the links - not the thumbnail previews. That is important because some other extensions for this only get the thumbs, which means they are not much help.
This is off to a good start, so lets hope they keep building and debugging. - Rated 4 out of 5by Ragiel, 7 years agoExcelente para descargar imagenes!, no solo descarga la imagen de la ventana actual, permite descargar la imagen del enlace. muy buena alternativa.
Aun no tengo resultado para videos. - Rated 4 out of 5by tcalla51, 7 years agoSeems to work very well! Nice & quick, easy to use - a good alternative for DTA (for me, anyway). It could use a browse button for where to save, some hover text for the buttons, a little more functionality, but I dig it so far. =)
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13298836, 8 years agoThis looks really good for a first testing release :)
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 12677137, 8 years agoIt is good to see that someone is interested in keeping DTA addon functionality with new releases of FF. Looking forward to see multi-tab link grabbing available! (If it is possible with WE, of course).
