Critiques pour Wallabagger
Wallabagger par Simounet, Yuriy Evdokimov
Avis de Ærion
Noté 4 sur 5
par Ærion, il y a 7 ansWallabag 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.

mis en ligne : il y a un moisSorry about that. We pushed the fix for that on v1.21.0. - Noté 4 sur 5par Utilisateur ou utilisatrice 17494420 de Firefox, il y a 6 mois
- Noté 2 sur 5par indiana, il y a 7 moisSorry, doch solange immer sofort gespeichert wird, nicht mehr als 2 Sterne.
Das muss für mich entweder optional sein oder es darf nur nach weiterem aktiven klick (nicht nur das icon) gespeichert werden. Alles andere führt numal oft dazu, das man seine gespeicherten Seiten zumüllt, nur weil man das icon vlt. versehentlich auswählt. Dann muss man umständlich aktiv löschen und nicht aktiv speichern! - Noté 5 sur 5par Wesley Branton, il y a 7 mois

mis en ligne : il y a 7 moisHi there, Firefox for Android changed the way we have to make it works. It's working as expected on Firefox Desktop. One star for an extension you didn't use is kind of rough though. - Noté 5 sur 5par Kelson, il y a 8 moisSimilar to Pocket, but you can (optionally) host your own server. Less polished, but it does the job, making it easy to save the current page to read later, with optional tagging in the save dialog.
And it can save the content from the page you're viewing now, which is helpful for sites with login walls.
Setup is a bit clunky, but you only need to do it once. - Noté 5 sur 5par Patreos, il y a 10 mois

As a [feature request], I would gladly have a darker theme (optional ?) for the popup used to add a page.Réponse du développeur

- Noté 1 sur 5par aguazales, il y a 2 ansI have the same issue as another reviewer. The addon installs and tries to check the URL I typed in, but "Wallabag URL checked" remains at "Not checked" although "Wallabag permission checked" changes to "Agreed."
Clicking the toolbar button throws an error, "api.GetTags().then is not a function."
Wallabag itself is working fine. I'm using a self-hosted Wallabag instance - Wallabag is hosted on my NAS which is on the same LAN as the machine running Firefox and the addon. I can access the Wallabag instance from my laptop and save articles with it, but the addon stops at the "Wallabag permission checked" step like described above, unfortunately :/ - Noté 4 sur 5par don_dolarson, il y a 2 ansSo far works good, LibreWolf 116.0.2-1. Let's see how it behaves in long term. Registered, created API token, pasted everything needed in the extension and voila. Setup took less than 5 minutes. Easy peasy even for a noob.
The instruction in extension description is more than enough for setting it up using the wallabang instance. - Noté 3 sur 5par Utilisateur ou utilisatrice 17795208 de Firefox, il y a 3 anstakes forever to save an item

mis en ligne : il y a 3 ansAre you using a self-hosted instance or wallabag.it? Is it quicker directly through the interface?
Have a nice day. - Noté 3 sur 5par Utilisateur ou utilisatrice 16314216 de Firefox, il y a 3 ansReview after developer response:
The url provided in the developer's response fixed my issue, but this addon is still far, far too complex to set up for the average user.
Previous review:
These instructions don't make any sense if you're a paid subscriber. The firefox addon asks for a url, and none is provided in the instructions. I tried https://app.wallabag.it/ (since I'm a paid subscriber) and the options page still says 'url not checked' so I can't get this thing to work.Réponse du développeur
mis en ligne : il y a 3 ansHi there, sorry about that. You can fill in the URL with `app.wallabag.it` then click on the test button and authorize the access of this URL. Do you have any installed extension? Can you try it on a fresh Firefox profile? - Noté 1 sur 5par AndrewKantor, il y a 3 ansCan't get it to work with Firefox 107. It tries to check the URL (which is correct) but "Wallabag URL checked" remains at "Not checked" although "Wallabag permission checked" changes to "Agreed."
Clicking the toolbar button throws an error, "api.GetTags().then is not a function."
Meanwhile, Wallabag itself is working fine, so I don't think the problem is there.Réponse du développeur
mis en ligne : il y a 3 ansHi Andrew, I'm really sorry to ear that. Can you tell me what happen when you click on the "Test URL" button? Did you try to remove the extension and install it again? Are you using wallabag.it or a self-hosted instance?
Have a nice day, I hope I'll be able to help you. - Noté 5 sur 5par Llort, il y a 3 ans
