Hi - I have the basic agencies (pollers?) showing automatically - but how do you add others? Is it possible? Should I also take it that 123 still doesn't work? Just would be nice.....
Ta!

Since bobbigmac checks in here now and then, thanks, I love the toolbar! However, it is doing odd things in Mac OS X 10.8.4 in Firefox 23.0. It populates with my DT sales but when I click on the green amount in the toolbar to go to the earnings page I get a text list of links. after earnings.com it adds the php coding /earnings.php?pg=1&orderc=download_date&orderm=DESC It doesn't go directly to my earnings page like it used to. I know it's hard to troubleshoot with all the changes these days in operating systems and browsers but thought I would mention it. I can send a screen shot if needed. Again, no big deal, I can click on the text link list that does appear to get where I'm going but I know that developers like to know when something odd happens. Again, thanks for all the work that went into this useful tool.

Great tool, use it everyday! I'm like a Pavlovian dog when I hear the "ding" of a sale. Unfortunately, overtime the tool is slowly breaking down. I've got at least 3 agencies set up that are no longer working properly. I'd actually like to be adding more agencies.

must be nice to have sales coming in- I am afraid my tool bar would just remain in red status :(

Heyhey :)
I don't get much time to spend on the earnings toolbar anymore, so won't be updating for non-critical issues, but I do run it myself so tend to fix pretty quickly for the agencies I use (the big 6 and a couple of others). 123rf doesn't work (still, as per several other threads) and there's nothing I can do about it (see other threads if interested). Next time I'm doing a critical update I'll update any of the minor issues too.
You can add your own pollers using the 'Custom Pollers' item in the 'Options - Contributor Bar' accessible via the firefox tools menu or by right-clicking the P icon in the firefox addon toolbar (usually bottom right if you have it visible), though that does require some regex knowledge and a basic idea of what you're looking for the the 'view source' of whatever site you'll like to parse.
Mostly though I use custom pollers not just for microstock earnings, but also for a bunch of other sites including gMail (to check for new mail), Twitter and Facebook (for update counts) and most of my other tools and sites' status panels so I get constant updates on everything :D

Like the toolbar lots! It's really neat!!! Thanks!!
However, a query..... When my mouse hovers over the icon for most sites in the toolbar, it says how many photos are online for me at that agency. But on SS when I do the same thing it says NULL images are online.
Please can somebody confirm this is just how things are and that they see the same thing regarding their portfolio?
I wouldn't worry except sales have been so erratic at SS lately, it wouldn't actually surprise me if my photos WERE offline from time to time at SS!!!!!
Ta!!!!

My toolbar is showing a number for the images I have online but it's the wrong number. It's shows about half the number I actually have. Maybe our images are going on and offline at SS? I'll keep an eye on it today to see if it changes.

Aye, that's been showing 'null' or the stored outdated value from before SS' site overhaul (since they changed the url format I couldn't add to the autoupdate). Will be like that till next major update.

OK. Thanks for that.
-
Will be like that till next major update.
Hope, the next major update coming soon. Your contributor toolbar is the most necessary stockphotography tool (for me), Bobbi. ;)
