Simple installation across systems (including plugins)
It would be awesome if there was a way for me to install all my plugins for Firefox whenever I installed FF on a new system. For example, I just installed FF on Windows 7, but I have to install all my plugins, search for them, download them, etc... But it would be awesome if i could just create an install file that would install all of these at once, preferably when installing FF too!
I’m excited

Inappropriate?Install FEBE and from Tools -> FEBE choose "Quick backup", tick the box for "create single xpi" then the "Select All" button.
Then simply drag the created xpi file onto your Tools -> Add-ons dialog in Windows 7
To export all add-on prefs then import them to Windows 7, install OPIE
To create a distribution with the created xpi file in it, use the Client Customization Kit. For windows you can additionally create an installer using this.

thanks... this should be made easier though haha, and with less steps. I think if they just make it so that you can optionally create an account to use the browser it would work. That way, each user can keep track of their add-ons but everything will be stored on the cloud somewhere. Maybe not something that Mozilla should do since their open source, but someone should.
I'll try that out though, thanks again! -

Inappropriate?hmmm... actually no, what I meant was for these two to be merged together, Weave should keep track of the add-ons. Anyway, I'm sure theyre getting there since its still in beta
