Re: Reader View for Pale Moon
That's very strange. The only thing I can think of then is that there is another extension or theme installed that might be interfering with the add-on. Even if you haven't installed anything new lately, other add-ons may update automatically if you have that option set.
If you want to rule that out, you can try creating a new temporary profile, installing Reader View, and seeing if it works there.

Re: Reader View for Pale Moon
Actually, I tried restoring PM to 11/05/18 using the same PM Backup Tool I tried several weeks ago that didn't work. Don't know what I did different, but Reader View 2.0 is back and little button is where it should be.Isengrim wrote:That's very strange.

Re: Reader View for Pale Moon
Does it still show up correctly if you update Reader View to 2.1?
You might want to clone your profile folder and test this on the copy.

Re: Reader View for Pale Moon
For right now, I just don't have the time to do anymore w/this. So, I have turned off Updates for Reader View for now. Will try cloning when I have more time.Isengrim wrote:Does it still show up correctly if you update Reader View to 2.1?

Re: Reader View for Pale Moon
Just to let you know, I was able to update my Reader View to 2.1 successfully. I believe that the almost fatal crash last week really did a number on the settings for my PM 28.2.0 I updated PM to 28.2.1 today and everything is fine.Cjay26 wrote:For right now, I just don't have the time to do anymore w/this.

Re: Reader View for Pale Moon
I am not sure that anyone saw that, but in case no one did I have corrected the Polish translation of the Reader View and the result are here: https://github.com/Ascrod/readerview/pull/36.

Re: Reader View for Pale Moon
I'm also going to have to take a look at how you ported this feature over, as, if I'm inclined enough to do so, I may want to try my hand at porting Firefox Home (the only Firefox 57+ feature I actually like) to take the place of the equivalent pages on PM.

Re: Reader View for Pale Moon
If by location bar you mean the URL bar then this is already possible. AFAIK this add-on is just the interface to a feature that is included in the browser.

Re: Reader View for Pale Moon
It is a toolbar button by default and by design, but there is an option in the Options dialog to change it to show it in the URL bar instead if you prefer.kbhasi wrote:I'm not sure if someone has mentioned it already, but the button should be located within the location bar, not as a separate button, though I can live with the wasted space for now.
Since most of Reader View is JavaScript with a small bit of chrome (UI) code, it was relatively easy to port. It was also developed well before FF 57, and thus didn't rely on Mozilla's new APIs at the time of porting, so the transition wasn't difficult.kbhasi wrote:I'm also going to have to take a look at how you ported this feature over, as, if I'm inclined enough to do so, I may want to try my hand at porting Firefox Home (the only Firefox 57+ feature I actually like) to take the place of the equivalent pages on PM.
That is true for UXP. In PM 27, the Reader comppnents were shipped as part of the add-on because they did not exist in Toolkit at the time.yami_ wrote:AFAIK this add-on is just the interface to a feature that is included in the browser.

Re: Reader View for Pale Moon
Isengrim, thanks for that clarification about the "button". I just got mine back after that almost fatal crash of PM 28 and I don't plan to give it up again.Isengrim wrote:It is a toolbar button by default and by design, but there is an option in the Options dialog to change it to show it in the URL bar instead if you prefer.kbhasi wrote:I'm not sure if someone has mentioned it already, but the button should be located within the location bar, not as a separate button, though I can live with the wasted space for now.

Re: Reader View for Pale Moon
I did find the source code for Firefox Home, and it looks too daunting for me to port, so I guess I'll not try to do that, but I did find a mockup I did.Isengrim wrote:Since most of Reader View is JavaScript with a small bit of chrome (UI) code, it was relatively easy to port.

Re: Reader View for Pale Moon
A minor conflict emerged after updating Reader View 2.0.0 to 2.1.0 using TGS 1.0.7 (The Good 'ol Sidebar). It is no longer possible to toggle the sidebar using the default shortcut key (F4) or by changing to any other key combination. Reverting back to RV 2.0.0 restores functionality. Hopefully there's a simple resolution.

Re: Reader View for Pale Moon
RV 2.1.0 includes a way to change the shortcut key, which might be interfering. I'll take a look when I can, though it might be a little while.
Edit: I've opened Issue #37 on the repo.

Re: Reader View for Pale Moon
Thanks for your attention when you have time. That was my first modification attempt before changing the shortcut in TGS. Neither worked.

Re: Reader View for Pale Moon
I created a brand new profile, installed RV 2.1.0 and TGS 1.0.7 and am able to use the F4 shortcut without issue. It took me a moment to realize that you have to restart after changing the shortcut, but now I can also change the shortcut to F9 and continue to toggle the sidebar without issue as long as the Reader shortcut is set to something other than F9. This is on my Linux Mint machine, I have not tested on Windows yet.
If you create a new profile and install just these two add-ons, do you still see the issue?

Re: Reader View for Pale Moon
Of course, there was no conflict with TGS and RV 2.1.0 with a new profile. After a painstaking reconstruction of ~30 other extensions it became evident the culprit was Tile View 5.4. Too many key configuration options there to disable to avoid trouble:
How it suddenly interfered with TGS after updating from RV 2.0.0, I have no idea. I'll test for more tangential interactions the next time something like this happens. Thanks again for your support in providing this useful add-on.
