- Rated 2 out of 5by Gabo, 8 years agoI'm sorry but right now. I only see the authenicate button even though I clicked on it and went to getpocket to authorize. After that it only updated the counter of the items I have pending to read, but it doesn't list anyone nor I can add more. The only thing that shows is the authenticate button again.
Edit to answer:
I've just reset my firefox so I can have the new button that comes with firefox (I have deleted it) so I don't have the list of plugins I had a few minutes ago.
I remember I have adblock plus, evernote clipper and leechblock. I had uninstalled firefox hello.
My firefox version is 45.0 for Ubuntu Linux.
I've just tried again with my firefox refreshed and it still does the same. I'm a developer too so if you tell me how I could debug it I could give you more information.
(a helpful link would be enough) I did a chrome plugin but I've never worked with firefox before.
I give you one more star for the quick and polite answer :DDeveloper response
posted 8 years agoHey, that's me who's sorry.. I haven't had any problems like yours so far, you're the first. Can you give me some more details by updating your comment maybe, about your version of FF for instance, other addons you might be using maybe? I'd be glad to help you if I can.
Edit : thanks for the update :) I'm quite new to FF addons development myself, and I've got no mechanism built into the addon to help users debug. I'll soon be able to add a "Enable debug mode" button there to give me more insights when there's an issue for someone. What's weird is that your item list must have been correctly loaded since you can see the items count. I've added a "disconnect from Pocket account" feature in my upcoming release, that removes some of the data stored by the addon and disconnect from your Pocket account. Maybe there has been corrupt data, and this might help... but since you've had the bug on a fresh install, I don't have really high hopes.
Edit #2 : there's also a bug fix in the upcoming version that might help. Don't hesitate to tell me if the bug still occures, and I'll be working on a debug mode as soon as I get a bit of free time. - Rated 5 out of 5by through_a_haze, 8 years agoI very miss for favicons next to list items like in the old Pocket addon. So I would be very glad if you will consider adding those favicons.

posted 8 years agoThanks for the comment, I'm glad it helps! I'd like to add this feature indeed, but I've got other things planned first. But it's definitely on my todo list. Thanks again for using "in my pocket" :) - Rated 5 out of 5by Abstract Duck, 8 years agoHaving the pocket items in a quick drop-down menu is much better than having to open a new tab!
- Rated 4 out of 5by SteveP, 8 years agoThis is a fantastically helpful add-on and so much better than the one that comes baked into FF. I have one suggestion: could it be possible to add the ability to edit the title of the entry once it appears in the list? Thank you

posted 8 years agoThanks a lot, I'm glad you like it! I've thought about this but don't know yet how I can add this feature while keeping a minimalist user interface. It's one of the many ideas I'm considering but I can't tell you when I'll add this feature however, as I want to do it "right" :) - Rated 4 out of 5by mwld, 8 years agoI used the old Pocket addon until it stopped being able to sync recently and the support just told me to use the new one which is, eh, not much more than a link to their website.
The UI could need some improvements (text too small, horizontal scrollbar (Windows) and option to remove the counter badge. But I guess most of them have been named already.
Do you consider moving the addon source code to github so others can contribute?Developer response
posted 8 years agoThanks for your review! I'd be interested in having a screenshot of how the popup looks on your windows machine (do not hesitate to drop a file here if you want: http://bit.ly/2gghJTY) because I don't have any issue on the machines I have around me.
As for the code, there's no github repo for now, but I've been hosting the code on a bitbucket repo that you can access through the "Addon homepage" link. I've not thought about opening it to pull requests, the code is still pretty rough, but why not. I've also worked on a public roadmap that I'll disclose on next release, so that everyone can publish and vote for ideas. - Rated 4 out of 5by TranceWarp, 8 years agoWorks for those that use Waterfox. However, I would suggest a darker colored icon for use with the default theme. I almost can't see it with that theme.
Developer response
posted 8 years agoThanks for your review! I didn't know about Waterfox, it looks like the UI is the same as regular Firefox theme, isn't it? Anyway I've been doing some work on a new icon lately, I intend to work on some other fixes before releasing this new version, but I'm confident it will make the icon more readable for you! - Rated 3 out of 5by jinijiro, 9 years ago我似乎是第一個下載者, 也是目前唯一的使用者, 但別氣餒, 我相信你還有太多想做而未完成的部分. 我會繼續使用這個 addon, 因為它至少不比內建的差, 雖然還有些 bugs (ex: removes an entry from list makes entry item flashing on list menu from addon button, ..etc; btw, tags editing is more necessary :-)). 很感謝你做出這個 addon, 並希望你能繼續完成所有你想要做出的功能.

posted 9 years agoThanks a lot for your support ! I'm also encountering the "flashing" bug on one of my two Firefox instances, and I'm working on solving this right now. Hopefully, I will manage to publish a fix in the days to come :) - Rated 4 out of 5by Axel_Maze, 9 years agoIt's a real shame that the FF Pocket addon has been reduced to a simple button that redirects the web version.
While it is true that this version is still early (there's no configuration options!) It has the basics features to start managing your list of Pocket in a convenient pop-up menu from the toolbar (like the old extension!) .
Bug: I tested the version 0.0.3 (FF 49.0.1 and Windows 7) and when I open the menu, the URL is displayed extremely small.Developer response
posted 9 years agoThank you for your positive comment! There's still lot of room to improve this addon, but it's a start. I need to use my own pocket account everyday so I'll keep on working on it, and I still have a lot of ideas. I'll be looking into your URL font size issue, it was alright on my own Firefox installations but I may have to check again then. Thanks for the insight.
