Feed Sidebar is a great tool but on Firefox 4 beta (all Versions)there are some UI Bugs.

First: If u right Click on a Feed the Menu is 100% transparent

Second: The Update logo has no icon!

Even better, would be make it an option to turn off and on those “Feed has no content” messages.

thanks,

I have one feature request PLEASE(?!).. I’m subscribed to well over 60 feeds, with option to update every 30 minutes. My internet connection is slooow, if I leave my computer on all night (often), in the morning I find the feed sidebar extension has dozens of the “xxxx blog: Feed has no content.” messages. In order to clear those messages I’ve sometimes had to click about 40 times or more on the little “x”.. It’d be mightily appreciated if there could be somehow incorporated a way to clear all those messages with one click..

Thanks for listening, and kind regards,
Mango.

The current version does not seem to work with firefox v3.6.4 under windows 7.. the icon is gone from next to the address bar, but i can still open the sidebar using ctrl-shift-f ..

Hello

First off, I love Feed Sidebar!

Second, I noticed with this recent update that when I open the Sidebar, all of the feed threads are open. I’m hoping this behavior can be changed back to closed threads.

Thank you!

Hi,

Feed Sidebar is great, and I use it all the time. I think it’s extremely effective precisely because it’s so simple and does exactly what it should.
One problem though, that started from version 4.0: I have several feeds that are in Hebrew, and all the Hebrew characters appear as gibberish. As I said, this didn’t happen before version 4.0.
Here’s a feed for example: http://www.hagada.org.il/hagada/html/backend.php
I guess it might be a problem for you to check if you can’t read Hebrew and it all looks like gibberish to you… But I wonder if you might be able to compare the original feeds source with what appears in the side bar, in order to see the problem.
I’ll be happy to supply more information if I can help.

Thanks again for a great extension.
