Mozilla had announced that they were going to remove old-format plugins. Not only DownThemAll! is missing.

@tigregalis It can be downloaded through SeaMonkey's/Thunderbird's addon site: https://addons.thunderbird.net/en-US/seamonkey/addon/downthemall/

It's probably compatible with atleast SeaMonkey and Waterfox still I'm guessing.

I would highly recommend switching to Waterfox or SeaMonkey instead of staying on Firefox 56 so that you still get security updates.

Project homepages: https://www.waterfoxproject.org/, https://seamonkey-project.org/

Downtheamall 3.1.1-pre nightly https://code.downthemall.net/nightly/ use Waterfox for plus security https://www.waterfoxproject.org/en-US/ o Basilisk https://www.basilisk-browser.org/

Mrs. hgdagon , hook54321 and Cyb3rG0D7, Thanks a lot, for this information about the program Downthenall, this is very useful.

jaques-sam commented 5 years ago

If the plugin has still an old format, the proper fix is to create a DownThemAll plugin with the correct format, right?

The WebExtension is coming about: https://github.com/downthemall/downthemall

It is less capable than the "legacy" version
