Add "Addons in Urlbar" feature #76

Open alopepeo opened 11 years ago

alopepeo commented 11 years ago

Some time ago i was an user of the "url-addon-bar" addon, but like i saw that many users request autohiding icons, i made Addons in Urlbar. There also also some other modifications related with buttons appearance, but no more. The problem is that i can't modifiy it too much because i only know some of css, not JavaScript. Also, if you try to modify the bootstrap.js file the addon stops working. So i don't know what to do.

Like i know that your are an incredible developer, if you want to take this project and make it yours, you can do it without problems. Also would be great if you can integrate it with Location Bar Enhancer.

Here is Addons in Urlbar page: https://addons.mozilla.org/es/firefox/addon/addons-in-urlbar/ Many thanks!

While this is a really nice feature, but the direction that I want this add-on to go right now is to be minimal and do what it says. This is the reason I stripped off Bookmarks Enhancer and disabled status bar in location bar by default. I am moving more and more towards an optimal combination of features and UI. That said, I am not saying that I will not consider this feature.

OK, I'm glad to read that. At first, i was wishing that you could adopt this add-on and make it yours to put it in great hands, but if you would like to integrate it with Location Bar Enhancer, it wouldn't bother me ;)

Again, many thanks for your hard work on all your addons!

Ah, you wanted me to adopt it :) I can do that, but why would you want that ?

alopepeo commented 11 years ago

Because I can't continue developing it. At first was simple add an autohide feature, but now users are requesting other options and i can't give them. Also, I created this topic here because would be great adding this feature into Location Bar Enhancer, but like you say you would like to make it more simple as posible, I didn't want to break that.

Oh, I am the user of Addons in Urlbar addon until now. I must first thank Alopepeo who developed such a handy addon and took my suggestion to make it greater. It is hard for me to know that Alopepeo will not continues this addon. But it seems that LBE work just fine with Addons in Urlbar. It would be great if Girish will integrate it into LBE.

Again, Alopepeo is really a great firefox theme developer.^_^

Thanks for that ;) I assure that if Girish takes this addon, it will be on really great hands, so don't worry about its future, it will be better than now. Thanks again!
