djbon2112 Posted April 23, 2009 Report Share Posted April 23, 2009 I'm having the same problem as about the last 3 users combined!1. Sidebar UI is completely messed up (can't post a pic, but similar to simonbcn's only the top section is thinner left, and the bottom is thicker right)2. "Add" options in the sidebar do not work at all.3. Drag-and-drop onto the indicator in the bottom-right of Firefox does not work, reports "torrent can not be added".4. "Diagnostics" in the properties lists nothing under "Status", but the server info is correct, and it's correctly updating my speeds/active torrents.5. Pausing over the indicator quickly flashes my list of torrents but doesn't stay (could be due to sheer number, though).I've got a whole bunch of torrents on the go (mostly seeding) so I'd much rather not switch to another client on my server, but if this doesn't get fixed, I might have to.Server OS: Windows Server 2003Server client: uTorrent 1.8.2Client OS: Ubuntu 9.04 JauntyClient browser: Firefox 3.0.8Client extension version: 0.1.8.2b Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simonbcn Posted April 24, 2009 Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 I love this addon, but finally I have uninstalled it because with all these errors it's not useful to me.I hope that will be corrected in future versions! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted May 31, 2009 Report Share Posted May 31, 2009 To reiterate, for those of you having issues like Backdraft originally reported here, please don't blame this extension. The problem lies with WebUI and the way it (badly) handles narrow windows. I've patched it in WebUI v0.362 WIP, and the fix will be included in the next update. It's not yet up as of this writing.

simonbcn Posted June 1, 2009 Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 Ultima, and the other bugs?http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?pid=402698#p402698http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=55958http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=56130 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted June 1, 2009 Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 Read the changelog? If it's not listed, it's almost definitely not changed.None of the things in your first link are relevant to v0.362 WIP. The toolbar issue was fixed, and multi-torrent properties dialog have already been implemented (both mentioned in the changelog). There is no context menu for adding torrents in WebUI, so that must be a bug in the extension.A context menu fix might've already made its way into v0.362 (by Directrix) before I started working on it, as I don't see the bug on Linux currently. Feel free to try. Either way, I looked at the code, and might've managed to extend the fix to work on Firefox for Mac (see the old Trac ticket from forever ago).As for the deletion problem, I still can't reproduce the reported bug, so there's almost no way I can fix it. I have no problem removing torrents and still having the UI update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Alderaan Posted June 2, 2009 Report Share Posted June 2, 2009 I just swapped the stable and the WIP builds around to check and the linux firefox context menu bug is indeed fixed in the WIP build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hiddenriver Posted July 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 I uploaded a version of the extension for Firefox 3.5 to https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/8168. It hasn't been reviewed yet and it won't appear until that happens, hopefully not a long time. The only change was to flag it as compatible with 3.5. No other bug fixes. I'm still looking for someone to take over development of the extension. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djon Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 Is it just me or is drag n drop broken i 3.5? Firefox just asks me if I want to open or save the .torrent file when dragging the link there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hiddenriver Posted July 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 I've also had a report of drag and drop not working via email. It seems there is a problem. Unfortunately I can't reproduce it. I'm using Firefox 3.5 myself and drag and drop is working fine for me. I'll need more information to fix it. If you have this problem, please state which operating system you are using and what other extensions you are using. Try temporarily disabling other extensions and if you find one that fixes it report it here. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djon Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 I'm using Windows 7 RC.It worked in the older Firefox and it also works now when I click the uTorrent extension so it opens a windows to the left in Firefox and I then drag .torrent links over there. However it was a lot easier when you could just drag the links down to the unopened uTorrent extension down in the bottom of Firefox.My other extensions are: Gmail manager, Google Toolbar, IE Tab and Linky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hiddenriver Posted July 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 Cool. That narrows it down to dragging to the status bar. I got confirmation of the same thing via email too. I was dragging to the sidebar when I tried it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaunsational Posted July 18, 2009 Report Share Posted July 18, 2009 i have 2 bugs to submit that are related to each other...1) i was trying to organize the columns and moved one to the far left (to be first) and it disappeared. i tried removing and replacing that column and that didnt work.so my next attempt at a fix cause this:2) i was going to remove all of the columns in hopes that the missing ones would come back, and when i got down to less than the sidebar width they still werent there so i kept removing them. once i removed the final column they all disappeared with no way of getting them back.i havent tried reinstalling the addon yet, but ive tried closing it, turning off webui, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dpetka2001 Posted March 27, 2011 Report Share Posted March 27, 2011 is this addon still supported? is there any link available? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phunkyfish Posted March 28, 2011 Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 I still have it running!I added SSL support to the original extension. You can still find it with my mod here:http://www.phunkyfish.com/article/10/utorrenthttpsLet me know if it works in firefox 4... You might need to play around with the version numbers in the xpi to get it to work (this has always worked for me since firefox 2 all the way through to 3.6.16...)Strange thing is that some one posted a while back stating they had incorporated my changes into the official version of the plugin and made some other changes. I used to be able to find it on firefox addons but just had a search there and no luck. Great plugin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dpetka2001 Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 could you please tell me what i have to change in the xpi file in order for it to work under firefox 4? i renamed it to zip but don't know which file i have to edit and what change i must make...thanks in advance...

dpetka2001 Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 does anyone have successfully run it on firefox 4.0? i edited the install.rdf file (changed tha max version to 4.0.*)but still no luck with installation...it fails with "not compatible with firefox 4.0"... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phunkyfish Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 Easy method.... 1. Find your favourite archiving program. 2. Rename the addon.xpi file to addon.zip 3. Extract the Archive 4. Open the folder and load the install.rdf file into your favourite text editor. 5. Change the Maxversion to the value required 6. Save the file. 7. Repack the Archive as a zip 8. Change the filename to addon.xpi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dpetka2001 Posted March 31, 2011 Report Share Posted March 31, 2011 yes i did the exact same thing but stills pops up the error about not being compatible with firefox 4.0...did you manage to make it work on your firefox? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lithopsian Posted March 31, 2011 Report Share Posted March 31, 2011 That message would usually indicate that the install.rdf format was not compatible with Firefox 4.0 and so the extension couldn't even be installed. I didn't look at it to check, but there were a number of changes to requirements for install.rdf and chrome.manifest. Combined with quite a lot of element name changes, most extensions need some sort of tweaking to work in 4.0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phunkyfish Posted April 2, 2011 Report Share Posted April 2, 2011 Ok, do we have any volunteers to upgrade the addon?Anyone with addon experience should fly through this fairly quickly.In the meantime check out this mozilla addon, it allows you to enable disabled addons to see if they work. For this to work you will need to install firefox 3, install the utorrent addon and then upgrade to firefox 4.https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/add-on-compatibility-reporter/This will at least tell us if the addon is still compatible. If we get it working I'll resubmit it to the firefox addons site so the whole world can use it...P.S. I'm not on firefox 4 yet, I won't be upgrading for a few weeks yet as I'm waiting for several other addons I use to be upgraded before I make the move to 4.
