- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 12670943, 9 years agoI used the older version of Snap Links Plus and it had an options button to allow me to change behaviors like whether I switched to the newly opened tab. I no longer have that option and the latest version of this addon is switching me to the newly opened tab. I don't want that. My FF is set to not switch to newly opened tabs, so where is this addon getting that setting and how do I disable it?
Just to note, the following two settings in about:config are set to false:
extensions.snaplinks.Actions.OpenTabs.SwitchToFirstNewTab
extensions.snaplinks.SwitchToFirstNewTab - Rated 2 out of 5by JMJimmy, 9 years agoI've used this a lot over the years, I thought at one time that it should be added to the core build of Firefox. This latest version has completely destroyed what it was.
What's wrong in an overview:
- Completely removed the context menu on release so you can't decide what to do anymore or cancel an accidental selection/release
- All the options that came with the context menu are gone removing 99% of the functionality
- Unable to shape the box properly, one direction stays static and acts like a move function while the other resizes so you can never shrink a box
Badly done devs. Badly done. Now I have to figure out how to revert.... - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 12663309, 9 years agoGoing from 2.4.x to 3.x made it stop working. Go back to 2.4 till they have it fixed. I get no link on any site. 3.0 is Beta and should not be pushed.

posted 9 years agoAre you using 3.1.0.4? If you're having trouble with it working, please create a ticket on github. - Rated 3 out of 5by rabab_2000, 9 years agoEigentlich ein super AddOn, aber seit FF50 öffnen sich die Links alle sofort im Vordergrund und es gibt keine Möglichkeit das abzustellen.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 12616234, 9 years agoA (for me) very important feature is missing. In the original Snap Links, it was possible to draw a rectangle anywhere, even on a figure without mapped links. This was a great side-feature, as one could e.g. estimate coordinates of points on graphs, check the horizontal alignment of points, etc. It would be great if this behavior would be brought back.

posted 9 years agoI know the current v3.0.x that's released is a minimal rewrite but what you're describing should work. The only cases where this shouldn't work is when the click begins on a flash object or an iframe. Could you, by chance, open up a bug report on this with a video of what you're describing? - Rated 4 out of 5by BobDawson, 9 years agoLastest version 3.1.1.3 is much improved and works great on Quantum (Firefox 57). When missing bells and whistles such as changing button assignment is added this will rate a 5.
- Rated 2 out of 5by Geoff M, 9 years agoI messed around trying different keyboard modifiers combinations and looking for basic instructions before finding out that you need to drag with the right mouse button - which isn't identified ANYWHERE. it just opens all links within in a new tab. So, not very convenient if what you want to do is mass download a bunch of files. I'll use Opera instead.
- Rated 3 out of 5by Epos, 9 years agoBefore update I used this addon with mht files Excel (Save as mht and then open in Firefox). It's not working now! Please check and fix it! Realy need it!
- Rated 5 out of 5by raveren, 9 years agoif I could keep only five extensions, this would be in the list.
- Rated 2 out of 5by Darkwolf, 9 years agowith FF49, Snap Links Plus lost settings, and many bugs appeared. The workaround is to rollback to previous version, and wait for a solid update.
- Rated 3 out of 5by patrickdrd, 9 years agousing firefox 49 it has become awful:
first of all it opens links clicked at the end, not next to current tab, as before and tab selection has become larger, marking irrelevant areas,
I guess it's time for an update
edit: well, ok, but the new version sucks big time, while the old one worked like a charm, so I rolled back too, I don't care about electrolysis either, I'll disable it if I get a chanceDeveloper response
posted 9 years agoMy apologies, the version that is now 'current' is a rewrite from scratch and was a first shot at it, the next release will have many more features and issues fixed. Coming soon. - Rated 5 out of 5by TheK0tYaRa, 9 years agoIt even works on Firefox 48.0 (the "uncompatible" sign isn't true, fix it pls)
- Rated 4 out of 5by Nafalem, 9 years agounfortunately there is no ability to copy as a plain text
eg. if i set action: Copy Links to Clipboard and select links on this page
Clint Priest, Tommi Rautava and then paste them to excel or word instead url i get Clint Priest, Tommi Rautava.
i suggest add some hotkey or options to copy links as plain text so result after paste to excel would be plain text
