Thanks for providing a bit more info into this. Looks like there's bug with csrf token when used without credentials. I'll fix this later today. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13577153, 7 years agoThis extension is exactly what I've been looking for.
Unfortunately, I'm not able to add torrents to my transmission torrent server. Tried clicking on a magnet link as well as using right-click menu 'Add torrent' option. Nothing happens. Not sure what information would be helpful. Running Firefox 57, Fedora 27, transmission-daemon-2.92-8
When I click on a magnet link, in the Firefox 'Launch Application' window I see the following:
Torrent Control Magnet Handler
https://torrent-control.invalid
**update:
add on is working now!! Issue was likely related to the 'no credential' issue.Developer response

You should see notification almost immediately telling you that the operation was successful or what error occured. I'm trying to replicate this as not getting any kind of notification shouldn't be possible.
Automatic magnet url catching requires redirecting them to nonexisting domain that the extension listens. So it looks a bit odd but works. - Rated 5 out of 5by Kihltech, 7 years ago*Update* Excellent speed and rapid fix from the maintainer!
Good start. However, using this addon for Transmission shuts down the daemon on the server..?
Suggestion: Make it possible to keep the default server/RPC address in the settings field and let the user edit it instead of typing it all again.Developer response
posted 7 years agoBug in Transmission session shutdown, now fixed.
Default placeholder addresses aren't valid for most of the users, but I will add that in a next version. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13454750, 7 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13519972, 7 years agoFantastic replacement for Torrent Status. Doesn't bug you on browser startup for any logins either.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13509824, 7 years agoWorks without issue, good replacement for torrent status.

posted 7 years agoYour server address is probably wrong. New version handles unknown responses better to reflect that. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13504807, 7 years agoWorks perfectly. Module (added in version 0.14) in the toolbar for direct access to torrent interface is a nice add. Was waiting for an extension like this for Firefox since a very long time. Thank you!!!
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13445099, 7 years agoWorks well for me, good that it works with the latest version of QbitTorrent too. TorrentStatus would appear to be no longer in development, as it's incompatible with the latest version of FF it'd be great to see this currently spartan but functional replacement add some more features matching what TorrentStatus could do. Keep up the good work :)

posted 7 years agoThanks for your comment. Hopefully we get close to feature parity with the Torrent Status in some day. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12563879, 7 years agoCan't 1-click to add a magnet link, and it keeps saying wrong username or password (in v0.1.2 and QBT v3.3.1)
v0.1.4 fixed this issue, works as intendedDeveloper response
posted 7 years agoAre you running the latest version (0.1.2) which added magnet handler support. Extension shows up in the action selector list when clicking a magnet url first time.
Which version of qBittorrent are you using? There's been some changes in the authentication in the latest versions. We are targeting the latest (currently 3.3.16), and support for older versions in in the works. - Rated 5 out of 5by Simon, 7 years agoAdd torrents to qBittorrent with one click on the magnet link, without cluttering the right-click context menu.
Does one thing, and does that thing well. Awesome plugin!Developer response
posted 7 years agoHi!
I wasn't expecting anyone to even notice my addon this soon, and even less expecting someone wanting to contribute to it. Just pushed this to the github, the link is in a details.
