posted 7 years agoThe reason v3.0 does not contain the same features as v2.7.3 is that Firefox changed its internal addon API and removed a lot of features, preventing developers to use them anymore.
So this was a change forced on addon developers by Firefox, hence why you mention many other addons have not updated, probably because their functionality is no longer possible with latest Firefox.

- Rated 5 out of 5by amo_nostalgic, 7 months agoversion 2.7.1 would allow date and time stamps in line, like this on a .csv, in appending mode:
Date stamp: 30-09-2022,Time stamp: 22-45-01,https://URL.com,,text-saved
Can this be implemented on this new post-add-on apocalypse version?
I've tried {DD-MM-YYYY} in Template Text, but this didn't work.
Thanks for this useful extension. - Rated 4 out of 5by Kirill_Z, a year agoCool! But I needed function to save words to the single text file.
- Rated 5 out of 5by PabloY, 2 years agoFunciona muy bien, es simple y clara. No es necesario instalar la segunda aplicacion si no se quiere guardar en otra carpeta.

- Rated 2 out of 5by Hasan Tahsin, 2 years agoShow notifications feature not working.The save feature with the Python plugin is problematic. Usually it gives an error.Actually, it was exactly the addon I was looking for, but unfortunately it does not work properly.

- Rated 5 out of 5by ethos, 4 years agoIt is really frustrating that I've tried many times to install the Host Application,strictly following your instructions but failed every time. Could you kindly provide a video demo? Besides, does the Uniquify function means I can append new text to the original file? Thank you and best regards!

posted 4 years agoAny issues were resolved via this support ticket: https://github.com/bobbyrne01/save-text-to-file-firefox/issues/105 - Rated 5 out of 5by Devata, 4 years agoПосле обновления на Firefox 79, после чистки кэша Firefox программой CCleaner, у дополнения сбросились все настройки.
Настроил заново, всё работает.
P.S.
Оказывается теперь в файле "storage-sync-v2.sqlite-wal" хранятся настройки приложений, и данного в том числе. Добавить его в исключения в программах-чистильщиках. - Rated 5 out of 5by DiverSant, 5 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Hans Hansen, 5 years agoSave Text to File works perfectly, thank you for making it!
However:
The add-on does nothing on its addons.mozilla.org page.
It just fails without an error message.
IMHO, this is significant, because many people will test the add-on immediately after installing it.
Suggestion:
If the user is currently on a website where the add-on doesn't work:
Please show an error message when the user clicks on the context menu entry, or remove / gray out the context menu entry.
This add-on grays out its icon and shows the tooltip "Save Page WE - cannot be use with this page" on any addons.mozilla.org page:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/save-page-we/

- Rated 3 out of 5by Mel, 6 years agoInstalling the host application on Mac requires a long complicated series of steps which ultimately did not work as described.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14970345, 6 years agoChiedo se è possibile modificare la directory ove salvare i file... è impostata quella di defult ma non riesco a trovare il modo di cambiarla.. grazie.. comunque ottimo lavoro.
- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 14757683, 6 years agoUseful extension but I don't get one thing: If I highlight more text fragments from the same page, can this extension add the different fragments to the same file without creating a lot of different files? Because at the moment I've tried every option available in the 'option' menu but I can get this thing done (i.e. the option 'Uniquify', which I think it's the one supposed to do the job, doesn't work).
