Wallabagger is a great extension that help making the most of a Wallabag instance. Once the initial setup done (which needs Wallabag login & password plus an API client ID & secret Key from your Wallabag instance), the extension works seamlessly.
Wallabagger has a great UI, and is very easy to use. A must have for all Wallabag users.

I have been using Wallabag for a long time. This extension will not save pages to my account after the configuration.

I am a hobbyist in computation, but not clumsy, an d I still spent 30 minutes setting up the addon. Some comments

1. the link on how to set it up takes to google-chrome, which is not the best. Within that doc the link in "First of all you have to create a new client on your wallabag installation. How to do that is described in Documentation" is not working. Anyhow, I managed to do the client.

2. While setting up the addon preferences (nice that it takes you there when error in import) I didnt know what to write in wallabag url. I assume this option is necessary for self-hosted (I have no idea), but when I tried at first the default app.wallabag.it it wasn't checking Ok. I spent all the time up and down your documentation to find the app url, assuming it was related to client; stupid me I even tested the one in your example "v2.wallabag.org", and I think that finally restarting firefox changed something in cache or whatever that captured the default url as a correct one.

3. A Youtube/vimeo video would be helpful.

Excellent extension! Great alternative for Pocket or Instapaper.

Thank you for this extension ! It should be a recommended one :)

Not very beginner friendly but if you can make it run then you have your own selfhosting pocket.it version

Great functionalities
Some features I'd like to see
* tag suggestions taken from the page tag when it has its own tags
* more responsive for tagging completion (it seems to be a bit slow to fetch them)
* when wallabag is unable to parse the article, the extension should notify wallabag developer on behalf of user.

Great alternative to Pocket. I bought their own instance for 9€ / year, great deal!

To use it, and also to solve the problems about "not working with latest Firefox" etc., you simply need to go your wallabag website, and Create a new Client (in "API clients management"). That's all. It will solve any problem with "not saving" also.

Good job devs!

Configuring it is super counter intuitive. I have a paid hosting on app.wallabag.it and yet setting up the addon needs to create a client on the website, pasting it back on the addons settings page and still entering the password anyways, or maybe not, very unclear. I then realized that before setting it up it was not saving anything. So I just LOST all the pages I bookmarked before figuring out how to connect the plugin to my account. And the wallabag plugin doesn't indicate in anyways that it is linked to a server or not. No color change, no error messages. So I was just casually bookmarking pages with the idea that they were getting saved....But they are gone. Now that I linked to the server, I was hopping that it would sync a kind a local buffer, but no luck with that.. Wallabag is great, but the Firefox addon is just crap.

Wallabag is an adequate substitute for Pocket, being fully open source, and with the ability to self host it if you don't want to trust the two main hosted instances.

It's not quite as slick as Pocket, but I find that goes for many, otherwise perfectly usable, open source equivalents for commercial products and services. What let's it down though it the complexity of configuring the add-on with your account credentials.

The instructions could be clearer as to what to do exactly when you have an account with

1) framabag.org
2) wallabag.it
3) self hosted

While self hosting is beyond the skills of ordinary users, many users of the aforementioned hosted instances still won't have a clue what an API is or how to set up a client.

I could not give Wallabag and the Wallabagger add-on to my family and most of my friends, without having to do the configuration for them. With Pocket no such problem.

This is a pitfall of many open source products, many of which are created to scratch an itch for the developer, who by definition is technical enough to not need a user friendly UI.

As this add-on works well, once configured, I've only docked one star; more hand holding for novice users and a slicker presentation and overall experience is all that stops this from earning a fully 5 star rating.
