Questions for BJ.

G'day BJ,

I went to give TiddlyClip a try but struck a couple of problems.

Firefox (46.0.1) complains that the XPI (linked from tiddlyclip.tiddlyspot.com) isn't signed.  (Although there's a workaround by fiddling about:config.)  However once the XPI does install FF disables it stating "tiddlyclip could not be verified for use in Firefox and has been disabled."

It's obvious that plenty other people are successfully using TC, but I can't see how to get past the installation issue.  Can you advise?

The requirements for authenticating plugins for Firefox are now stricter. If the add-on has not gone through the formal approval process it will likely NOT work.

BJ, under the new rules that link does not invoke add-on download for me on Firefox 46.0.1.
Just saying.

I downloaded the add-on and opened it in Firefox 46.01 and it sure works for me. I have just used it!
Did you click on raw to download?

Hi Ken,
currently you will have to download the file
https://github.com/buggyj/tiddlyclip/blob/master/tiddlyclip-0.0.9-fx%2Ban.xpi

click on the 'raw' button and download the file, then drag and drop it onto the ff addons window.

all the best

BJ
