MyBB/Firefox Forum Tracker

This addon allows you to keep up to date with your MyBB forum account. It'll fetch the latest PMs and latest posts. It's still only a very early version that's still being tested.

Install

Install - Forum thread about it (includes screenshots)

Setup:

  1. Install it
  2. Find the magnifying glass icon on the statusbar, click it and select "Options"
  3. Click the "Sites" tab, and fill in your login information and board URL (comes with MyBB community by default)
  4. Click Verify, it should say if it's successful or not, and it'll display the titles of your private messages as a test. None of this is recorded to me or any third party
  5. Click OK, and go down to the statusbar again and click "Refresh". It should fill a submenu with a bunch of links.
  6. It will automatically fetch new data every now and then depending on what you select for the "Time to wait between checks" option in the options window.
  7. The "Forum IDs" field on the "Sites" tab is a comma seperated string of numbers for the fields to select from the rss feed. For example, inputting "4,5,6" will make the rss feed fetch "syndication.php?fid=4,5,6"
