Firefox Based Browsers Probably Incompatible about soupcan HOT 11 CLOSED

Okay, I pushed some changes which should help Firefox. You still need to remember to give it permission to run on twitter via the "Manage extensions" page. Let me know how it goes!

Can confirm, both automated database download and reporting works now

Seems like Chrome isn't happy with background.scripts and Firefox doesn't support background.service_worker and wants background.scripts. (source)

I may try to create a manifest-v2 version in the mean time for Firefox users, until v3 is supported. Google doesn't even accept new extensions using manifest v2 any more.

Could you try changing service_worker: "background.js" to "scripts": ["background.js"] and see if that works?

Yea that works, then you just need to right click the extension on firefox (while twitter is open) to allow it to always run in the case of those who want that

In the new version the option to manually update the database is non existent and it doesn't update automatically either, making the extension not show anything (at least on firefox) - https://i.imgur.com/7BUuDX0.png

When submitting reports this error happens:

Failed to submit report: TypeError: NetworkError when attempting to fetch resource.

Got it! Thanks for the help. It looks like it might be CORS related? Although it should be sending back the right CORS headers, it works in Chrome. Hm. I also notice right-clicking on the background of the page doesn't show the other context menu items, so I may have to also add them to the plugin button

Yes, seems the reports have to be fixed not through the extension but in the backend, give it some sort of CORS handling, chrome doesn't care about it but firefox won't work without it.

Firefox compatibility seems to be stable for now. Closing.
