Great extension - makes reading feeds realy handsome. But I would love to see an option to store the history on some WebDAV/FTP server - for people using multiple PC's like me this would be very helpfull...

Well I got frustrated by Feed Sidebar (because of 2 issues below) and tried every other RSS add-on. They all sucked, pretty much, in comparison with this one which, in terms of features and aesthetics is just fantastic. I mean, it's a really great add-on, and I really appreciate it and use it constantly.

But...

1) Is there any way to organize the feeds once you've subscribed? (Posters on the Mozilla add-ons page have asked this question, too.) I tried moving them around etc. and nothing seems to work.

2) Is there something wrong with how this add-on uses memory? This question was also raised elsewhere, and it does seem like Firefox keeps gobbling up memory with Feed Sidebar enabled.

I'm experiencing this strange behavior:

When item links have a fragment part in URL (they end in "#something"), this fragment does not appear in Feed Sidebar. However, if you look for the item in your Bookmarks, you can see that the fragment is there. The main problem with this is that different items with URL's differing just in the fragment are marked as read if you visited one of them.

Hope I explained clearly.
This seems to be a bug. Can anybody confirm it?

Dude! I'm really impressed by your blog! This is really inspiring the way everything is laid out.

GoodThings2Life: There is already a toolbar button for marking all as read. (It's the second one.)

I just installed 3.1... on the plus side-- THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!! for the addition of the "Always open in new tab" option! :) On the down side, what happened to the "Mark All As Read" option? Maybe if you make that a toolbar button for the people who said they accidentally clicked it in the menu?

This has nothing to (really) do with this post but I had a question. Is there any way you can tell me how to set up my own RSS feed on my wordpress blog?
