Hey, author of the Chrome version here. I've updated my version of the extension which should now support Firefox along with Chrome with the same code base. If you want, feel free to update this with that code base. Otherwise, do you have the source for your port available?

    Straightforward and reliably does what it says on the tin. Indispensable for doing uni at home.

    This extension is very useful for people employed in academia, who wish to easily access research papers via their library's proxy without going via the library's (always hopeless) search portal.

    However, the fact that there does not seem to exist any public repository for the code is an utter nuisance that prevents me from rating this extension higher than three stars. Simply saying that it is based on EZProxy Redirect (which does have a public repository), without in any way indicating what the differences are, is shady at best.

    UPDATE: Thank you for making the code available, as mandated by the license used. I am now happy to give this extension five stars.

    You can view the source for any firefox addon using the addon "Extension Source Viewer". In any case, the source is available here https://github.com/metronidazole/EZProxyRedirectFoxified

    It would be nice to have an icon for dark themes. Otherwise it's an irreplaceable add-on!

    I have updated the addon to include this feature (version 1.19). Once it is approved, it should be automatically updated in your firefox install.

    (on Firefox for Android at least) No way to just add a custom URL; must go through submitting a new URL to some random central database.

    You can use a custom URL - this feature is shown in the screenshots.

    This is a fantasic add-on. It just works, and saves me so much time when doing research off campus. Thanks so much for pubishing a Firefox version.
