Hi Pablo,

The extension should still work fine with the new multiuser Backpack.  What problem are you having?  I always suggest that people double check the login and API key.

Just to let you know, there's actually a new version of the extension which will be on addons.mozilla.org soon (it is just waiting for approval).  The new version supports Firefox 3 and fixes a couple of bugs.

Hi Pablo,

I remember now that I had the same problem with the API key changing.

Thanks for letting me know.

Hi Pablo,

Adding the warning message sounds like a good idea.

The only time my API key changed was when I switched from regular logins to an OpenID login.  I'll check to see if the API key changes when I change my password.

Thanks for the feedback.

Ben

Maybe you can just add an alert or a warning message when the extension cant connect to backpack.
Somethig like "Dont Panic! Just double check if your api kay have changed in your backpack account" or something like that.
Its seems to me also, that any time you change your password, the api gets regenerated with the new password.

Hi

I had some trouble to put the extension to work, but it had to do with
the settings of the SSL conection. Just check in your settings if you
have SSL on or off.
