AIOS falling apart - Githubissues

Back/Forward buttons disappearing/removed: FF35 and AIOS post 0.7.25.1 -

On FF35, where back/forward buttons would randomly show or not show, a temp fix was to roll-back to AIOS 0.7.25.1
However doing this does not work in FF40+; where the back/fwd buttons never appear anymore.

Various Download sidebar and Download button problems (in conjunction with Download Manager Tweaks addon):

For a while now I have had to use 'Download Manager Tweaks' addon to force the downloads panel to open in AIOS. Regular AIOS on it's own doesn't work, even when it is set to open downloads in the sidebar, and FireFox insists on opening a floating menu instead.
As of FF45.0 - the Downloads toolbar button does not open-up AIOS or even the default FireFox floating menu, it has no reaction. -- Fixed by rolling back to DMT verison 1.0.2.1 and then re-updating to 1.0.10.
I am unsure if the 'Clear Downloads' button was ripped out of Firefox and re-entered by DMT addon. However Clear Downloads button does not show if I open another panel in AIOS, like Bookmarks, and then use the dropdown menu panel switcher in AIOS to access downloads. It does show if I press the downloads toolbar button though.

Nightly 48.0a1 - AIOS does not work at all: FF48.0a1 Nightly Build -

I had to jump-up to this to fix a different error with flash videos giving me a black screen on a FireFox/Windows10 combination.
On FF48.0a1 AIOS does not function at all, despite being updated and enabled. Everything opens in seperate windows, as though AIOS is not installed.

Thanks for reporting.

Did you mean the back/forward buttons in the Addon panel?

I am unsure if the 'Clear Downloads' button was ripped out of Firefox and re-entered by DMT addon.

Right, it was removed by Mozilla. It's not a bug of AiOS.

Nightly 48.0a1 - AIOS does not work at all:

Unfortunately I can't guarantee the compatibility with future versions.

Back/Forward buttons:

Yes, the back and forward button inside the addon panel in AIOS sidebar. They used to be placed next to the 'Check For Addon Updates' button.
An example of when AIOS back/fwd buttons disappeared in FF35: When clicking 'More Infromation' on the addons panel. Instead of being able to press back to go back to the main list of addons, now I must click a different AIOS button, like downloads, and then click back to addons.
Back in FF35 a fool proof fix was for me ot roll-back to AIOS version 0.7.25.1; however doing this does not work in FF40+; where the back/forward buttons never actually appear anymore.

Download Button(s):

Seems like the downloads button and clear downloads button are DTM addon issues, due to Mozilla messing around with the downloads panel in FF45, those will be fixed in time by that addon creator.
However I do still have to use 'Download Manager Tweaks' addon to force the downloads panel to open in AIOS. Regular AIOS on it's own doesn't work, even when it is set to open downloads in the sidebar, so I thought you should know about that.

Nightly build

That's understandable. Whatever FF do between now, FF45, and Nightly48, fixes my flash/windows 10 compatability issue. I just hope that when Nightly48 eventually releases as the current FF48, you will be able to make AIOSidebar work still.
