- Rated 1 out of 5by Marcio Wesley Borges, 7 years agoThe plugin is slowing Firefox. Its GUI is too confuse, intrusive and shortcut keys isn't working.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Frank, 7 years agoEinfach super. Nutze den Password Hasher schon lange. Funktioniert nun auch wider in FF57. Einfach nur noch 1 Passwort merken. TOP
- Rated 3 out of 5by Carsten Nielsen, 7 years agoThis one was a nice try but carries a lot of old and chrome-specific-stuff around. I've created a new one from scratch just reusing the passhash-algos. The old site-tags can't be imported as the password-API in Firefox is not ready yet.
The new one is using popups instead of reusing the password-field which is a big security issue.

https://github.com/phreaknerd/passhash-ng - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13476299, 7 years agoMurks. Zwingt, die mit dem Passwort Hasher von scooper erstellten Passwörter wegzuwerfen und für alle jemals benutzten Webseiten neue Passwörter einzugeben, so man denn noch diese Webseiten betreten kann. Welch ein Aufwand und ziemlicher Unsinn.
Werde wieder den alten Firefox installieren, ist einfacher.
Habe mich wegen des Prozessor-Desasters erneut mit Firefox Quantum und dieser Erweiterung befasst. Wenn man den Kompatibilitätsmodus einschaltet, kann man natürlich Passworte erhalten, die dem alten Passwort Hasher entsprechen, aber eben nur, wenn auch die gewählte Passwortstärke der alten Einstellung entspricht. Jetzt müßte ich in etwa 70% der Fälle die Passwortstärke vor der Passworteingabe umständlich ändern. Könnte man einfacher machen, der alte Passwortmanager erinnerte sich jedenfalls an die für die jeweilige Webseite einmal gewählte Einstellung. Jetzt werde ich eben doch fast alles neu eingeben, um für alles diesselbe Passwortstärke zu erhalten. Welch ein Murks.Developer response
posted 7 years agoHi anon 6d676e,
Hast du den "compatibility mode" angeschaltet und trotzdem keine passenden Passwörter erhalten? Wenn das der Fall ist, wäre ich an einem Minimalbeispiel (muss natürlich nicht deinen echten Passwörtern entsprechen), sehr erfreut. Es ist möglich, dass du Einstellungen im alten Addon gemacht hast, welche keiner der Passwortstärken in diesem Plugin eins zu eins entsprechen, vgl. https://github.com/simu/passwordhasherplus/issues/11 - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13262705, 7 years agoexcellent replacement for old addon, but does not work on android properly
1. portable page not available
2. hash sign does not replace password or replace it with incorrect value - can't sign in to any siteDeveloper response

I messed up when creating the addon on AMO, currently there is no Android support at all.
My suggestion is to use the standalone app "Hash It!" on Android which implements the same algorithms as this addon, as far as I can tell. - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13226591, 7 years agoI am a long-term user of "Password Hasher" which is no longer maintained. This add-on seems to be a good replacement... IF this one issue is solved:
It is dangerous to enter the master password directly into the web page. A variant where it is entered in a pop-up dialog is desperately needed. Why not put it in the bubble or in the dialog which opens when clicking on the hash in the toolbar?
For new users: This is not such a big problem for you as long as you do not use the compatibility mode.Developer response

I'm aware of this problem, but am currently lacking time to implement such a large change. See https://github.com/simu/passwordhasherplus/issues/3 for an ongoing(ish) discussion on the topic of hiding the master password from the web page. - Rated 2 out of 5by Hyper.nl, 8 years agoPressing the # button near password field results in nothing happening. Right-clicking on the password field also gives no option to open the password hasher plus.
For now, I will have to keep using the old "Password hasher" add-on. Hopefully there will be some kind of solution before firefox 57 will be out.Developer response

Sorry about the confusion on how to use the plugin. The way it works is slightly different from the old Password Hasher plugin. I've updated the plugin description with a quickstart guide. - Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 11391270, 8 years agoI really appreciate that attempts have been made to port this very useful addon to Firefox. But unfortunately, it is unusable for me due to the following critical bugs:
1) Settings (incl. your private key) are lost on browser restart.
2) The portable HTML page produces different passwords (probably because it can not deal with the "compatible:" prefix)Developer response
posted 8 years agoThanks for the review.
I cannot reproduce the first issue that you're reporting. I've restarted my browser countless times since I've started using the plugin and my settings (incl. the private key) are preserved across restarts. Note that unfortunately (due to how the original Chrome plugin is designed) changes to the settings from the addon settings page (in about:addons) will only be persisted if you click the "Save" button directly below the checkbox "I have backed up my private key".
I've investigated the second issue, and have implemented a fix that is included in the next version (2.3.10 -- because I messed up submitting 2.3.8 and 2.3.9) which is currently in the review queue. - Rated 5 out of 5by daniel.mota.leite, 8 years agoThis add-on works fine, in recent firefox versions when most of the other password hashes stop working.
It have a master private key, per site extra password and "bump" support to allow one to rotate password for just one site when needed (ie: when that site was hacked) without forcing one to change the master password.
The only down side is that it do not give any help to start using it and that makes hard for new users. Just use the portable html or type a password in the password field and then press ctrl+# (or equivalent) to hash the password. you can also press the below "#/." hash/unhash and "a/*" view hide the password.Developer response

I've incorporated a quick-start guide into the plugin description to hopefully make it easier for people to start using the plugin. Thanks for pointing out that it's not very intuitive if you're not familiar with the Chrome version of this plugin as well as the old Firefox plugin.
