So happy to see Forecastfox back in its old form!!! Living in Kansas, sometimes it is crucial to have weather at our fingertips and Forecastfox does that for us!!! Is there any way to move it back to the top of my page?

Well done! I can't believe you were actually able to revive the status bar! Thanks!

Thank you , and congratulations on your excellent work.5x5x5...star

Mon extension de Firefox est de retour !
Ce n'est pas encore parfait (la barre apparait en bas de page web, mais disparait sur certaine page, dont celle-ci).
Mais je trouve cela bien mieux qu'un minuscule petit bouton.
Merci à l'auteur de cette extension d'être aussi réactif !

Ever since it updated to 4.1, every tab has a little hovering button in the bottom right corner that expands into a 7 day forecast. This would be fine if you could actually hide the button or if it didn't print out when you print out a page.

Great add-on - up to Version 2.4.8 when combined with The Addon Bar (restored)

If you want to keep addon behavior as before:

1. Install The Addon Bar (restored) from following location -
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/user/GiT/

2. Install ForecastFox (fixed) Version 2.4.8 from following location -
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/forecastfox-fix-version/versions/

3. Go to Tools - Addons - Extentions - Forecastfox (fix version) - More - and set automatic update to Off

As noted in previous review, chill out & please don't blame developer for changes made by FF developers.

Depuis la dernière mise a jour, ma barre inférieur qui me permettait de voir la météo sur plusieurs jours a disparue, maintenant je me retrouve avec un minuscule icône, vraiment pas pratique tout ca... :/

It didn't disappear, it just turned into a tiny icon on the URL bar (everything bar?) with the temperature in a bright, unreadable yellow, or was it green?, that hid the icon. I discovered that was it, have to click the icon, no more display on the add-on bar (using CTR for years), had to revert to version 2.4.8 to get it back. I hope version 4.1 provides the functionality and options I am used to, if I'm still using FireFox in November. Mozilla just keeps on taking away more options with a lot of the updates, I'm thinking of going back to Seamonkey. Maybe try PaleMoon, if it will download correctly this time. Firefox is turning into Chrome and I don't like Chrome.

I've been using this add-on for many years now. (First the original and then I shifted over to this fork). However, the recent update completely changed the UI.

I used this because I still have the status bar, and I have a lot of space there to spare. This add-on would give a lot of information. However, it has been compressed. I used to be able to hover the mouse over something that was always visible, to immediately get radar. Now it's buried, and takes more time to load. Obviously this is just one person's opinion, but it is no longer the add-on that it once was.

Used to be great. Now, not so much. Uninstalled. Can anyone recommend a good replacement?

I agree with robert3353 that this add-on is the only reason I use Firefox at all. Here is how I got the add-on to work for now:

Note that I am using the add-on Classic Theme Restorer. I am also running Firefox ESR 32-bit as I attempt to hold on to features. You can get the ESR version at https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/organizations/all/

You can find version 2.4.8 at https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/forecastfox-fix-version/versions

Find Forecastfox under Tools / Extensions or simply at about:addons

Click on More.

Find Automatic Updates near the bottom of the page.

Click on Off.

Dumbed down interface, no way to see or set where the information is displayed, and general lack of quality to this new version.

Delete it, then burn it with fire.

=^.,.^=

What are you thinking? why did you completely change the interface for this add on? I was on Linux earlier and thought that it just was not working correctly on FF because it was on Linux but NO I am now on Windows 7 Ultimate and it is just the same here. You used to be able to display the important info down on the lower add on bar that got replaced by the Classic theme restorer. But you are being just like the idiot FF devs. If I wanted to use a browser that looks and feels and STINKS just like the abortion called Google Chrome I would just use Google Chrome and not FF. Why is this add on now in a STUPID BUTTON up on the top R/H corner of FF. For me it is a PAIN IN MY !@@ to use it so I DON'T I have uninstalled the thing. Why did you move it off of the lower add on bar that can easily be put back by the FF Classic UI add on. I liked just being able to glance down on the lower edge of FF to see the weather Now you have to click on the stupid button. WHAT A LAME IDEA! Your add on was the FIRST AND IT WILL BE THE LAST add on that I ever send in any money to sup[port. 3 months ago I sent you $20 USD for your efforts but now I feel like DEMANDING MY MONEY BACK WHAT this is now is not what I was supporting.
I FEEL ROBBED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Before the change having this add on was the ONLY reason I was still using FF. Now I suppose it does not matter what one I use. They are all LAME I am thinking seriously of uninstalling FF along with your LAME Forcast Fox (FIXED oh I mean BROKEN!) add on.

Well I am not a developer or coder etc like the other millions of us out here where some flip burgers some build houses or work on aircraft etc etc the vast majority out here are not programmers and would never be able to develop software. All I know is that the arogant devs of Moxilla are the true culprits of all the issues over the years. Every new version of FF that they release seems like over 80% of add ons get broken. They are a lot like a vast majority of devs in the Linux community as well as the open source arena. They do not give a damn about the people who use their software and for the life of me I cannot understand why in hell they even do it. Too many of them when asked about something a user does not understand how to use or gives some negative feedback about changes that adversely affects most users all too many devs respond with read the F ing manual or hey its free you don't have to use it.

I do not understand very much of what was talked about in the two links you sent me. However this is what I have done since I posted these remarks. The real cause of the issues are not with the individuals who make the add on's the blame sits squarely with the Fire Fox devs and the Mozilla Foundation for letting the dev's do what they want with out any regard for the end users. since posting this is what I have been doing. I have done several Google searches and have come up with some names who are at the head of the Mozilla Foundation and I have also found the snail mail address for their head quarters. Tomorrow I plan on composing a detailed old fashioned buisness letter spelling out all of the reasons as to why I have uninstalled Fire Fox from all of my compuiters and mobile devices with some suggestions that they should implement if they do not want to become irrelavent to the many of us who use their software but really do not like it any more. When I finish my letter I will take it down to my Post Office and mail it Registered with a return recipt so I know that some one on the recieving end actually got my letter. I am an older individual and I remember back before the PC was even in existance. For the most part back then the vast majority of companies as well as non profit foundations were very focused on good customer service as well as good customer relations. Over the years all of that has been replaced by the impersonal tecnology. Every company you call today all have a stupid computerized answering system which usually takes about 5 to 10 minutes to wade through all of the lame menu options before you actually are able to speak with a real person. I remember the day when the first thing you heard was a real red blooded human who answered the phone who asked nicely the purpose for your call. I have found that the most effective means of communicating about an important issue is an old fashioned buisness letter, not email and definately not live chat. It will be interesting to see what sort of response if any that I get from sending my letter. A few years ago I operated a small buisness and needed at the time a very expensive and high end large format printer. It was back when hardware was very expensive, I purchased a scanner that was so expensive that it came bundled with a full version of Photo Shop that at the time cost $600 dollars. This HP printer was like that and almost cost $800 but back then the ink was very inexpensive. Then about 6 months after buying this printer the industry decided to basicly give away the printers and the cost of the ink probably increased 1000%. It was so bad that we could not afford to even use this very expensifve printer that at the time had been reduced in price to around $120 instead of how much we spent only 6 months earlier. We put it up in a closet and everytime I saw it my blood did a slow boil. Then one day I could not stand it any longer and I sat down and wrote a long detailed letter to the new CEO of HP explaining why I would never ever purchase any prduct with the HP branding on it. I did not expect to get any response at all but I was shocked at what happened. A few days after sending the letter I received a phone call from the CEO's office. They must have called directory assistane to get my phone number becasue I did not put that in the letter. The CEO's secritary called to apologize for how thier decisions had negatively affected us and asked me to send them a copy of my original invoice which I mailed to them. They sent me a check for the full price of the pinter including the tax along with extra to cover shipping the printer back to HP. The letter that was sent along with the check had instructions of where to ship the printer along with an RMA number. So you never know what might happen if you send a respectfully written letter even if it is not a positive one.

ForecastFox (fix version) has long been a great add-on. The latest revision, sadly, hogs way too much space on the Firefox interface. It needs to give users the option to choose what information appears on FireFox. I would venture that most users do not need it to tell them everything about their location: city, state, zip code, country and time. Too much information takes up way too much space. It also is no longer playing nicely with NoScript. So please, allow us to specify how much locational information it provides on the Firefox interface and make it more friendly with NoScript.

Forecastfox is a GREAT add-in. I get a week's worth of weather info at a glance - always there, always updated.
However, I have no good things to say about Firefox development which seems to want to trash Forecastfox every couple of updates. I stopped updating Firefox for a while because it kept killing off Forecastfox. Now, it's done it again.
Why would Firefox deliberately keep kicking its most popular add-ins into the dumpster? I got onboard with Firefox at Version 1.5, but I'm looking for a better alternative now.

tout simplement génial merci aux développeur me donne bien la météo de chez moi

langsam gehn mir die ständigen änderungen (eine davon ist schuld dass in KOMMENDEN ff versionen keine statusbar möglich ist) gewaltig wohin. wenn ich einen chrome ähnlichen browser will dann installier ich mir chrome , will ich aber nicht !

in der jetzigen form ist das addon unnütz denn da kann ich gleich auf einen link klicken.

bis der entwickler hoffentlich eine lösung gefunden hat , könnt ihr euch die alte version wieder installieren
https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/forecastfox-fix-version/versions/

und abgesehn davon , wusstet ihr dass man forecastfox auch in die tableiste schieben kann ?

Get Status-4-Evar add-on and downgrade to previous version of forecastfox to get the bar functionality back!

I am SO impressed by this update that I can't express my gratitude to the developer. He has heard every nasty complaint and addressed each one with a flexible, totally functional add-on that not only made me feel glad to have donated, but is sending me back to RE-donating! Thank you for all of this work!
PRECEDING REVIEW (which was called "almost there"):
As of this new version, I can move the icon to the Add-on bar, but this requires installing the extension "New Add-on Bar" -- which I hope will continue to work in future versions of Firefox.
The only issue is that it is only available as a pop-up, not as a strip of multiple days. That strip was really useful.
BTW, I contributed to this developer, and he is responsive -- so I encourage others to do so as well.

Wusste nicht das dieses Update mit der Umstellung auf zuküntige Firefox Versionen zu tun hat. Danke für die Infomation.
Im Vergleich ist Forecastfox immer noch ein Super Add-on.
Vielen Dank für Ihre Arbeit, bleiben sie dran ;-)

I'd give one star but at least it works. Addonbar/statusbar may not be available but menubar is-which is where I keep (or kept) Forecastfox. Can't do that now so it's no use to me, I've deleted it.

Thanks for the effort in preparing the add-on for the future Firefox direction. Changes to your add-on may not be liked by some, but in this case, it is a necessity. Please continue the good work.

The only reason I used this so I could see several days of weather at one time on the add on bar. If that's not an option, this addon become useless. There are a ton of addons that do what you made this one now do.

I want to be able to see multiple days of weather on the addon bar. I don't want to have to click on it. i reverted back to the old version. new version isn't worth it.

and don't need two showing the temperature. I loved the previous version that sat in my tool bar, and allowed me to have the days side by side. I love being able to mouse over the radar and have it automagically show me how far away the rain is. The WU add-on already gives me (very) local temps in my taskbar with its icon. I don't need two add-ons doing the same thing. I've rolled back the update on my desktop since seeing the change on my laptop. I will be rolling back that update as well.

This used to be a five-star add-on, and I'm sure, will be again. But not right now.
