no dropdown. the aiderss dropdown in reader w/ firefox 3 & gm shows up as a text box. I can type in 'best' and it works, but I'd rather see the dropdown. i just upgraded to 2.1, but i still have this issue
There is a small incompatibility between your Greasemonkey script and the Google Reader Preview Enhanced script. Normally, clicking on a title opens up the original story in a new page. The latter script prevents that, and shows the original story inline instead. However, your script breaks the first part of that functionality. Thus, clicking on a title opens up the original story both inline and in a new page. This occurs regardless of the order those two scripts are run.
Unfortunately, I have had to disable your script for now, due to this bug. AideRSS is something I have been needing for a long time, so I hope you can get this small issue worked out soon. Thanks!
I found that for me, using Firefox 3.0 and the greasemonkey version of the script, AideRSS breaks the way Google Reader used to work:
- Without AideRSS, when i click on a the subject of a feed entry while holding down the <ctrl> key, a new tab is created but i stay on the Google Reader tab. With AideRSS i ́m catapulted to the new tab; very annoying.
- With AideRSS when selecting a post i stays unread; also annoying.
Well, after a bunch of changes, 2 or 3 invites, extension and greasemonkey script installations, re-installations, I have given up. No I will not use Firefox 2, no I don't want anymore invites. I am using Firefox 3 now.
Never have I seen a more complicated software installation process.
After receiving another invite via e-mail I did a fresh install of the extension. It did not work. Then I tried to install the greasemonkey script and my browser froze. When I restarted and navigated to Google Reader all I got was the orange drop-down menu. It does nothing. I chose individual feeds and all that. Nothing.
To be honest, this takes an extraordinary amount of patience even to try to tolerate this bugginess. This should have been labeled as Pre-Alpha, use at your own risk, not ready for primetime.
I tried, very hard to get this to work and it consumed a lot of my time. I would recommend you just prominently warn Firefox 3 users that an installation this product is not to be attempted.
I will check back soon to see if any progress has been made. AideRSS looks like a very nice usefull tool. I just don't have the patience or time to fiddle with this anymore.
Good luck and look forward to using this soon. Thanks.
i installed the googlereader firefox extension and all i see is a drop down menu for all/good/great/best and nothing else new in google reader. Am I missing something? I am using Firefox 3. I don't remember explicitly installing Greasemonkey but I don't know how to tell if it is installed or not. I am very frustrated as this extension looks like the kind that I would love and want to share with many people, but I am close to giving up on it. Help?
Just an FYI to BETA users - there is a known possibility of there being an incompatibility with the GreaseMonkey Firefox extension. If you have GreaseMonkey installed and then install our extension - the extension may not do anything. We are actively working on a solution to this problem.
As an interim solution, we recommend disabling Greasemonkey (from Firefox add-ons dialog - *not* from GreaseMonkey settings) while using our extension.
I've installed the Greasemonkey Script. It shows the Dropdown menu in my reader but for some reason it doesn't pagerank anything and if i use the dropdown menu to select an option it does nothing.
How if any way may I get AideRSS to work with the Flock nightly? it's based on FFx3, but doesnt' seem to have exactly the same entries in about:config ?!
For some reason, the Greasemonkey script doesn't do anything except indent the titles of the RSS feeds in GReader. Also, I heard that I was supposed to enter an invite code somewhere. It never prompted me.
I like this. I like it a lot. In principle. In theory. What I don't like is that it doesn't play well with Greasemonkey. Greasemonkey is an indispensable part of my browsing experience. AideRSS would really help me cut to the chase with my (many-too-many) feeds in Google Reader. I only want it all - is that too much to ask?
