Notefox: websites notes by Saverio Morelli (Sav22999)
Review by BykerRode
Rated 4 out of 5
by BykerRode, 6 months agoJust what I wanted
Very useful for certain websites that I use
The author very quickly assisted with a query that I had and a few minutes experimenting
I was able to fulfil my requirements - automatically open a previously written note
Thanks Saverio.

Anyway, the popup should show you the note (if present) automatically when opened. You can also “fix” on the screen setting it as sticky note

- Rated 2 out of 5by Gemini62167, 10 days agoI really would have loved this as it seems so well put together, clean, and thought out except for on flaw. Yes, it does create notes for a page, however those notes do not show up on the page at all. In fact there is nothing to let make you aware that you ever did create a note on a page. Instead you have to click on the extension and then you will see your note. So, unless you remember you've made a notation to a page somewhere, or refer to notes made in the past within the extension itself and then revisit a page from there, you have no idea if you've done so. Its a bit unrealistic to expect people to remember they've created notes on websites/pages should they go back to them if there is no visible sign that you've done ever done so.
Aside from that major flaw, the only other aspect I would add would be to allow for the add-on to be accessed through the contextual menu rather than having to click on a pinned icon in the toolbar.Developer response
posted 9 days agoHi, I’m sorry you’re encountering those issues.
I try to answer here, but in case, please, write to me on Telegram or via email.
1. You will see the icon green if you’ve saved a note (you can customise the behaviour of the icon in the Settings)
2. You can also “fix” the note on the page, as it’s a post-it (it’s called “sticky note mode”): if you opened the sticky note in a page, you’ll see it as sticky note again the next time you visit that page
3. You can open the popup via keyboard shortcuts (customise them in the Settings)
I remain at your disposal for additional support - Rated 4 out of 5by Lani, 2 months agoIn my Ubuntu + iBus + Firefox, Korean input is broken and only English can be typed, but this add-on is really practical. I recommend it!

But Can we have the option in the settings to move the notes to the sidebar so that it can stay open while we are browsing?

- Rated 4 out of 5by xkr47, 7 months agoIt has some keyboard focus issues sometimes (cursor keeps going to the start of the editor while you type), but the ability to associate the note with e.g. certain subdirectory trees of a site makes it perfect to keep notes between all pages in certain part of the site.

**The bug should be fixed now, please, let me know if you still encounter it - Rated 5 out of 5by DADESIGNS41, 7 months agoI absolutely love this add-on. Extremely well made. It would be neat if I could edit the text or UI color from the add-on toolbar. Awesome.
10/6 Thanks for the reply. I found a color I like. I keep having this issue though where the window flickers and it's not word-wrapping the text.Developer response
posted 7 months agoYou can change the theme colour in Settings, but you cannot change the single elements colour: it would be extremely complexed - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 5950826, 8 months agoNach diesem Tool hatte ich lange Zeit Ausschau gehalten. Ein Notizzettel der sich auf einer bestimmten Website einblendet, zu der ich mir einen Hinweis erstellt hatte. Top :)

https://www.notefox.eu/help/notefox-4.0/ - Rated 5 out of 5by NattusFlattus, 8 months agomy only feedback would be to allow different full-color sticky notes or drop-down menu notes.
For instance:
- For stickies: instead of the "tag" being cyan, the whole note is cyan
- For drop-down, when selecting cyan, the orange border/frame changes to cyanDeveloper response
posted 8 months agoThank you for all your feedbacks. In the next weeks should arrive the new Notefox 4.0. It will be the biggest update I ever done for Notefox, and there will be also the theme for sticky notes 😊 - Rated 4 out of 5by Oleksandr, 8 months agoNice one. However when taking notes on websites that play video/audio material addon's window shuts down or a cursor of the fixed window resets to the initial position, which makes taking notes on youtube videos unconvenient.

https://www.notefox.eu/help/notefox-4.0/ - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 17698868, 9 months agoJust did a Firefox refresh, not as traumatic as I thought it would be and looked for addons. When I found this addon I was delighted. It fills all my requirements and answers the other problems similar addons haven't addressed. I hope you enjoyed the coffee.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18097713, a year agoThank you, finally a notes extension that works as it should! All that's missing is sync and it would be perfect
Developer response
posted a year agoHi! Thank you for your review. Unfortunately it's not possible use the Firefox sync because the storage it's limited to 8KB. I'm so sorry about this inconvenience 😥 - Rated 5 out of 5by nikuser, a year agoThis is an addon that a lot more users would find useful to use, hopefully it will get known and get the popularity it deserves. The note features of it level up the browser, it works flawless and the developer is very active and responds fast to questions and requests in an amazing level. Thank you for this great addon!

posted a year agoThank you very much for your detailed review. I’m really happy you find this addon as a plus for your browser ❤️ - Rated 5 out of 5by bege1, a year agoThis is really amazing! Settings for the notification with a green button for every circumstance and if set to open with page the notes popup opens with the respective tab: If there is no domain or page not it opens with global, if there is no page but domain note it opens with domain and if there is a page not it opens with that tab.
And it is compatible with Firefox for Android, if you use a Firefox release that allows to install add-ons from a personal collection.
I am honestly impressed.Developer response
posted a year agoHi! It's a very pleasure reading these words: I develop with my heart and I really appreciate your feedback!
Thank you for using it ❤️ - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14231394, a year agoШикарное расширение, но есть недоработки:
1. Иногда заметка на странице существует, а индикатор (иконка расширения) не показывает этого - красный цвет. А иногда показывает - зеленого цвета. И приходится всегда, даже когда красного цвета, нажимать на иконку и проверять есть ли заметка на этой странице. Очень не удобно. (Исправлено)
2. При вводе текста на странице и нажатии перевода строки (Enter) происходит перевод строки и моментальное возвращение курсора в исходное положение - как будто были последовательно нажаты две клавиши "Enter" и "Стрелка влево (<-)". Очень не удобно. (Исправлено)
3. Очень не хватает автоматической синхронизации заметок. Я знаю, что об этом уже писали ранее, но я не могу не упомянуть этого.
В остальном расширение очень хорошее. Использую его очень часто.
UPD: всего за сутки разработчиков были исправлены 1 и 2 недоработки. Благодарю!Developer response
posted a year agoHi, thanks for the review!
Unfortunately Firefox account (now Mozilla account) allows limited storage to sync data (only 8KB), so I cannot use that sync because notes are bigger than that limit.
I'm so sorry.

Update: in the next release (Notefox 4.0) there will be the sync via Notefox Account. Read more:

I would like to be able to do two things:
1) format text of my notes (bold & italics would be enough), and
2) create colored highlights on the page itself (but I know that's complicated).Developer response
posted a year agoHi!
Thank you for your review and for the donation 😍😍
1) I can consider to implement, thanks
2) This add-on is not created with that purpose: I advice you to find out another add-on (and there are many) which give you this option
I remain at your disposal, also via email or Telegram
**Update (14 oct): I want to inform you I've just released a new update (3.7) where you can find support for images and text-formatting (bold, italic, strikethrough, underline)
