Has anyone tested FF4 and picNiche?
It installs fine, but I can't find the options anymore, hence cannot add my accounts.

Thanks!

Heya :)

It works for firefox 4, though the mozilla people have changed the way a lot of their interface works so it's a little trickier after the first install.

Firstly you need to turn the firefox status bar back on: This can be done by right-clicking the firefox tools menu (hold the Alt key and it should appear at the top), then check the 'Add-on Bar' entry to turn the status bar back on. (This contains the P icon and will show up at the bottom).

In this same menu, you will also find the 'picNiche toolbar' entry (and the 'picNiche Image Search toolbar' entry if you have that installed too). Some people report that this is not disabled by default, others report that it is, so if it's off, check it on, etc etc.

A lot of developers are really annoyed at the mozilla team for turning off a lot of stuff which people take for granted as being on, though they are not going to fix it, so I will be releasing an update in the coming weeks which will attempt to curb much of this confusion. Sorry for the confusion and inconvenience with this stuff, but sadly it's out of my hands (and something many many other people are having to do as they find their addons seem to 'vanish' in fx4).

I will be redesigning the way it works to 'fit' better with the new firefox4 UI and may also release a version for Chrome browser at around the same time. Sadly it will involve rewriting pretty-much the entire codebase so I probably won't have it done for the official fx4 release (just gone into final-beta).

Does that help?
Thanks :)
Bob

Ha Great!

Everything was on by default, only the menu bar is gone.
I still, as usual, can't get 123RF to work. haha. It's always the same. Tried deleting all history/cookies, restarting and so on. But I have almost nothing there, so whatever.

Thanks for this great post!!!!

Heya Simone, thanks :)
Aye, sorry about 123rf (I'm guessing you read the other thread about it). I am considering dropping them entirely from the next version, though until it gets there, I'll just leave it (it works for people with few sales).

Xalanx:
So there is no chance whatsoever for 123RF to work properly with picniche? This is the main reason I've stopped using the toolbar, since 123RF works really nice for me (delivers sales).
