Jan 1, 2011 at 12:37 comment added lovinglinux @Marcos Roriz, thanks. You need Firefox 4 to drag the extension launcher to the bottom, because the status bar has been replaced with the add-ons bar, which behaves like a regular toolbar.
Dec 28, 2010 at 19:36 comment added Marcos Roriz Junior Hi lovinglinux, your extension rocks! I`m using on firefox and it works flawless :). I was wondering how can I put the stats (points) in the bottom panel of firefox (like in your screenshots).

Nov 22, 2010 at 2:10 comment added lovinglinux @Jay Thanks for the feedback. You are not missing anything. The option to open in new tab is easy to implement, but the feature to ask questions I'm not so sure is possible. I will look into it tho.
Nov 21, 2010 at 16:12 comment added Jay This is a great extension. There are only two improvements I would request: 1) The ability to set a preference so that selecting something through the extension opens in a new tab instead of the current tab 2) An option to "ask a question" through the add-on, which when selected would just take you to the "ask a question" page. (I'm sorry if either of these already exist and I missed it)

Nov 18, 2010 at 8:06 comment added moberley @lovinglinux It has been mentioned elsewhere on this meta site, but I noticed that your site refers to AskUbuntu, but the proper name is Ask Ubuntu (with a space).

Oct 28, 2010 at 23:58 comment added lovinglinux I just received an e-mail stating that the extension has been approved by Mozilla, so no more account required to download and updates will be served with extensions updates :)

Oct 25, 2010 at 3:21 comment added lovinglinux I have received several e-mails asking if I could provide versions of the extensions I develop for Chrome. So I have decided do it. AskUbuntu will be the first. Nevertheless, it will come after a version for Opera, which is already under development. Stay tuned.
Oct 25, 2010 at 3:16 comment added lovinglinux @marenostrum Thanks a lot. There is a minor bug in version 1.0.1, that has been fixed for the next version.
Oct 24, 2010 at 16:23 comment added marenostrum This extension has a page here and registered users of stackapps.com can vote for it. I did.
Oct 24, 2010 at 11:59 comment added marenostrum 1.0.1 is even better. I was not aware of the new version for four days. My bad.
Oct 20, 2010 at 22:56 comment added lovinglinux AskUbuntu Add-on 1.0.1 was released today and is available for download. This version brings several new features - askubuntu-extension.blogspot.com/2010/10/…
Oct 20, 2010 at 17:33 comment added lovinglinux Thanks for these reminders. You see the extension widget in the bottom of Firefox on my screenshot, because I'm using Firefox 4, in which there is no more statusbar. The statusbar has been replaced by an add-ons bar, which means you can drag any toolbar extension widget to it. I have included a code to auto-add the widget to the main toolbar as you described, but you can move it around by right-clicking on the toolbar and selecting the the "customize" option.
Oct 20, 2010 at 17:30 comment added marenostrum Thanks a lot; I love this extension. A reminder (maybe two) for the new users to be on the safe side: When I installed the extensiom, it appeared on the right uppermost part of the window, just near the search bar, somewhat different than what we see in the screenshot. First you have to enter your user ID via Preferences of the extension. User ID is the number you see in the url when you visit your profile page on askubuntu.com.
Oct 20, 2010 at 17:27 comment added lovinglinux I'm already working on the next version, which will have some context menu options. For instance, while reading a question in the site it will be possible to right-click on the page and set that question to be ignored, so it won't show in the extension menus and won't trigger alerts when updated. Next version will also fully support meta.askubuntu and the user will be able to easily switch between meta and askubuntu
