by Tukaram, 8 years agoMaybe not your fault but if FF gets rid of the add-on bar I will switch browsers (trying to find a decent one now - no luck). If this add-on cannot use the add-on bar it is of no use to me. What a shame it has long been one of my favorite add-ons...

posted 8 years agoThe original status bar (add-on bar) was removed from Firefox in version 29 (May, 2014) and all existing addons that emulate that bar are coded using XUL.

The current version of Forecastfox is the version for the new API: WebExtensions (supported Firefox and Google Chrome)
WebExtensions not supported "statusbar/addonbar" from xul-addons like as "Addon-bar restored", "Status-4-ever" , etc
And all Xul-addons is die in Firefox 57 (November 2017)

So forget about the xul-version, there are a few months left before the complete destruction of all the old add-ons...
