Use in Firefox?

[petersw730]

I installed the BetterViewer extension in Firefox (133.0.3) on my Mac, but can't see any way to activate it. It doesn't show up in the right-click menu (while other extensions do), and I don't see any other option for activating it. What am I missing??

BetterViewer gets activated automatically when a webpage with an image content-type header is opened directly (as in, right-click → 'Open Image in New Tab'), BetterViewer does not add its own dedicated right-click menu option, it just piggybacks off of the default browser functionality. (keep in mind, some websites—namely Reddit—do not allow you to see the 'direct' image, so the extension will not work without an external workaround, as explained in #54 )

If the Extension is not showing up in about:addons, then it's not installed; if you are trying to use it in a 'private' browsing window, then manage BetterViewer in about:addons, and 'allow' it to 'Run in Private Windows'. If none of these are the issue you're talking about, then I'm not entirely sure what the problem is, given the limited information you provided.
