  • This should automate coupons applied on our website
  • We want our customers to save the webpage and revisit it again.

Please read this full guide about the extension.

Why some times Mozilla Fixes Firefox Extension Fail: After days of browser extension failures in Firefox, Mozilla has fixed the issue. Users have reported some problems with extensions not working properly and some that simply did not install at all. Mozilla says this issue is now resolved for both current and legacy releases. The problem was first reported by Firefox users on Friday, when some extensions were no longer working or were not being installed at all. This is the first time Firefox has experienced this problem, so it was an issue that caused widespread frustration among users.

A recent vulnerability revealed in the Mozilla extension made it vulnerable to XSS attacks. Boodman handled this issue openly by updating the extension's website and hosting an open mailing list. He also consulted with people who are knowledgeable about security issues to find a fix. Eventually, Boodman introduced a patch for the problem and the extension has a new home on the Mozilla website. However, developers still need to make sure that their extension does not open security vulnerabilities.

To develop a new extension, the first step is to understand Mozilla's internals. Mozilla is a software platform made up of many technologies, such as JavaScript, CSS, and HTML (Read more about technology). It also includes image files, which must be edited using an image editing application. Then, the developers can package their Mozilla extension using an installer, which is especially useful for multiple installations. Once a user has installed a Mozilla extension, he or she can customize it according to his or her preferences. Please check this website for the details.
