- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 12698748, 9 years agoHad to revert back to Version 2.4. The new updates have made this addon 100% useless as well as effected other addons. LINK to revert: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/snaplinksplus/versions/
- Rated 1 out of 5by tina21, 9 years agoAlthough the problem with selecting links vertically was fixed (before it was going haywire and you couldn't choose properly), now there's no options so you can't customize it, and the fact that we are switched to the first open tab is especially annoying when you want to make various different selections on one page.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 12670943, 9 years agoI used the older version of Snap Links Plus and it had an options button to allow me to change behaviors like whether I switched to the newly opened tab. I no longer have that option and the latest version of this addon is switching me to the newly opened tab. I don't want that. My FF is set to not switch to newly opened tabs, so where is this addon getting that setting and how do I disable it?
Just to note, the following two settings in about:config are set to false:
extensions.snaplinks.Actions.OpenTabs.SwitchToFirstNewTab
extensions.snaplinks.SwitchToFirstNewTab - Rated 2 out of 5by JMJimmy, 9 years agoI've used this a lot over the years, I thought at one time that it should be added to the core build of Firefox. This latest version has completely destroyed what it was.
What's wrong in an overview:
- Completely removed the context menu on release so you can't decide what to do anymore or cancel an accidental selection/release
- All the options that came with the context menu are gone removing 99% of the functionality
- Unable to shape the box properly, one direction stays static and acts like a move function while the other resizes so you can never shrink a box
Badly done devs. Badly done. Now I have to figure out how to revert.... - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 12663309, 9 years agoGoing from 2.4.x to 3.x made it stop working. Go back to 2.4 till they have it fixed. I get no link on any site. 3.0 is Beta and should not be pushed.

posted 9 years agoAre you using 3.1.0.4? If you're having trouble with it working, please create a ticket on github. - Rated 3 out of 5by rabab_2000, 9 years agoEigentlich ein super AddOn, aber seit FF50 öffnen sich die Links alle sofort im Vordergrund und es gibt keine Möglichkeit das abzustellen.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 12616234, 9 years agoA (for me) very important feature is missing. In the original Snap Links, it was possible to draw a rectangle anywhere, even on a figure without mapped links. This was a great side-feature, as one could e.g. estimate coordinates of points on graphs, check the horizontal alignment of points, etc. It would be great if this behavior would be brought back.

posted 9 years agoI know the current v3.0.x that's released is a minimal rewrite but what you're describing should work. The only cases where this shouldn't work is when the click begins on a flash object or an iframe. Could you, by chance, open up a bug report on this with a video of what you're describing? - Rated 4 out of 5by BobDawson, 9 years agoLastest version 3.1.1.3 is much improved and works great on Quantum (Firefox 57). When missing bells and whistles such as changing button assignment is added this will rate a 5.
- Rated 2 out of 5by Geoff M, 9 years agoI messed around trying different keyboard modifiers combinations and looking for basic instructions before finding out that you need to drag with the right mouse button - which isn't identified ANYWHERE. it just opens all links within in a new tab. So, not very convenient if what you want to do is mass download a bunch of files. I'll use Opera instead.
- Rated 3 out of 5by Epos, 9 years agoBefore update I used this addon with mht files Excel (Save as mht and then open in Firefox). It's not working now! Please check and fix it! Realy need it!
- Rated 5 out of 5by raveren, 9 years agoif I could keep only five extensions, this would be in the list.
- Rated 2 out of 5by Darkwolf, 9 years agowith FF49, Snap Links Plus lost settings, and many bugs appeared. The workaround is to rollback to previous version, and wait for a solid update.
- Rated 3 out of 5by patrickdrd, 9 years agousing firefox 49 it has become awful:
first of all it opens links clicked at the end, not next to current tab, as before and tab selection has become larger, marking irrelevant areas,
I guess it's time for an update
edit: well, ok, but the new version sucks big time, while the old one worked like a charm, so I rolled back too, I don't care about electrolysis either, I'll disable it if I get a chanceDeveloper response
posted 9 years agoMy apologies, the version that is now 'current' is a rewrite from scratch and was a first shot at it, the next release will have many more features and issues fixed. Coming soon. - Rated 5 out of 5by TheK0tYaRa, 9 years agoIt even works on Firefox 48.0 (the "uncompatible" sign isn't true, fix it pls)
- Rated 4 out of 5by Nafalem, 9 years agounfortunately there is no ability to copy as a plain text
eg. if i set action: Copy Links to Clipboard and select links on this page
Clint Priest, Tommi Rautava and then paste them to excel or word instead url i get Clint Priest, Tommi Rautava.
i suggest add some hotkey or options to copy links as plain text so result after paste to excel would be plain text
