av pol098, 7 år sidenComparing the Update Scanner for FF57, as of 21Nov17, with its predecessor: I much prefer the old version. The new version opens sites in a page of its own, with a name like "moz-extension://f79626ca- etc. etc.". If you click on a link in the page it no longer works; on seeing a list of changed files, you can't click on any of them. This is a major issue for me.
It was convenient, with the sidebar opened, to click there to scan all pages. There may be ways round these issues, but they're not obvious. A nuisance, not major. I usually scan manually, setting the automatic scan to once weekly.
As many have commented, the scanner often reports pages to have been changed when there is no visible change; I expect that is unavoidable due to the nature of the pages, but is a nuisance.
On balance I still find the current version better than nothing; in particular I have a list of sites to remind me which to check. But it's got worse.

When you visit the Github page of this project, you see why, the add-on isn't maintained for a long time (almost 5 years) and the developer says he is not able to maintain it anymore.
Unfortunate because it was a great project, which really worked fine. - Vurdert til 5 ut av 5av Firefox-bruker 14643647, ett år sidenWOW! I've been searching for tool like this for a long time. Thank you!

As many others say, it would be nice to be able to set a shorter than 5 minute refresh time when you have system resources to spare and want to be first to a site change. It integrates with Notification Sound (another Firefox add-on) so that it plays a sound, and you can choose a nicer one from C:\Windows\Media. It would be cool if it would also send notification emails, or integrate with a future "Notification Emails" (which does NOT exist) since the site I am following is updated at midnight and my PC is a long way from my bed. It does not let us choose a part of a page so pages that have changing adverts are fraught. Fortunately that does not apply to me. All in all, a very nice extension which provides functionality that you would have to pay for from update notification website services. Thank you Sneaky Pete.

- Vurdert til 4 ut av 5av maxedl, 3 år sidenToll wenn man informiert wird dass sich auf Homepage 50 von 300 mal wieder etwas tut.
Besonders gut geeignet wenn es nur alle paar Wochen
oder Monate Änderungen auf einer Homepage gibt.
Schade nur dass es in der Sidebar kein Suchfeld gibt um ein bestimmtes Updates unter 300 zu finden.
Alternativ wäre auch ein "Löschen" oder "Papierkorb Symbol" in den "Seiten Einstellungen" hilfreich. - Vurdert til 5 ut av 5av Firefox-bruker 13874875, 3 år siden
