- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13494401, 8 years agoReally appreciate the effort you put in to port foxyProxy to the new Firefox version.
However there is one little remark concerning the UI. Could you make it so that I can also click on the text in the UI and not only on the buttons/icons? Because it's confusing and annoying sometimes. - Rated 5 out of 5by yiyu, 8 years agowhen I imoprt my old pattern and want to add new one, the new-button doesn't work.

Hi, do you have many, many patterns? If so, it is known bug and new release is coming today with a fix. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13483687, 8 years ago

posted 8 years agoThanks for taking the time to create an account at addons.mozilla.org and to write to me. I appreciate it! - Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 13237825, 8 years agoAfter I imported my old FoxyProxy configuration (with whole gfw patterns), my FF57 just stuck.
When I restarted FF57, it ate up all the memory, and then it crashed.
After removing FoxyProxy, the problem disappeared. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13451686, 8 years agoThanks for upgrading it for FF57. It has a smaller feature set now but I guess it cannot be helped with the new addon API.

posted 8 years agoWe will be adding more features soon (context menus, quick add, clear cache&cookies on proxy switch). But it will take some time. - Rated 5 out of 5by Fygo Wu, 8 years agoWhen can this new ff57 edition import proxy files like gfw-list?
Manual input patterns is horrible.
Thanks. - Rated 5 out of 5by Clovis Fabricio COsta, 8 years agoDeveloper fixed everything in record time. Recommend.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Wolfram Schlich, 8 years agoNew version for FF57 just sucks because FF57 just sucks in so many relevant aspects! Old Foxyproxy was great!
- Rated 5 out of 5by ThaiCat, 8 years agoI hope some day functionality of old version will be restored in this one (automatic proxy selection depending on the site), until then i switch to another addon, UI in this new foxyproxy is not user friendly at all
edit: Thanks, works just like before, I'm very happy with this addon again now ! - Rated 5 out of 5by 昏睡墨鱼, 8 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13462713, 8 years agoWorks great, wish I could use some proxy list from the internet in case my proxy drops
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13462030, 8 years agoThanks for developing such a nice add-on. I was quite sad when I saw it wans't available for FF57, but it is now *-*.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13459795, 8 years agoWhat a very nice message I got today, can I also donate BTC (that's just so much easier than PayPal, at least if you have BTC lying around). Good luck getting Foxy Proxy back up to snuff!

https://ibb.co/b0aBiR - Rated 5 out of 5by MadtownChris, 8 years agoHas been excellent for years. Now got it working in FF57. Something I found was that if you are using your local host as a proxy server (e.g. through putty) the 127.0.0.1 address doesn't seem to work. If you use localhost instead, it works fine.

- Rated 4 out of 5by saviorium, 8 years agoI managed to make it work in 57, and I think it's the best proxy switcher here. Other extension just throw premium proxies in your face and collect your data for promotional needs.
Firefox proxy settings were interfering with FoxyProxy. Switched to "Use system settings" and it's works fine.
I know developer is working hard to make it work in new firefox.
There was a good feature in old version. Adding sites to list by hotkey. I hope you bring that to new version eventually.Developer response
posted 8 years agoThank you for kind words. The feature you want is called QuickAdd. I may not be able to add it by hotkey (WebExtension limitation for now, as far as I understand), but I can add it as a context-menu (right-click) option. - Rated 4 out of 5by Jorn, 8 years agoAfter the FF57 update I imported my configuration from FF56. I thought it was working fine, the URLs I had set up patterns for were being fetched through the specified proxy, or so I thought because the logs told me so. However this morning, I forgot to start Tor (the proxy I'm using), however all the URLs were being loaded, even the ones that were, according to the FoxyProxy log, loaded through the proxy. So it seems like it isn't working at all.
Great Add-on however! I understand the difficulties with porting the Add-on to WebExtensions and I am confident that the developer is capable of fixing this.Developer response
posted 8 years agoFixed in 6.1.7. sorry for the trouble. The log shows all URLs, even ones that fail to load.
