MozBar Login Change Update + Firefox Temporarily Disabled

[IsaCleanse]

Just to add to Nicholas' question above about Site Explorer, I know some of the links to my website that have been around for over 12 months (ie from my personal blog) and show up in Google Webmaster tools are not flowing through to Moz

Any ideas?

[randfish]

Hi Sandi - Moz won't know about all the links to your site. We don't crawl as fast or comprehensively as Google, so Open Site Explorer will always be showing a sample set rather than a complete picture of every link.

[IsaCleanse]

Thanks Rand! That makes sense, I was under impression they will all show up eventually but it makes sense that they arent as comprehensive!

Ah, this makes so much more sense now! I hadn't read this announcement and have been wondering why Firefox Mozbar was acting all screwy the past few weeks. Finally decided to just try re-installing it this morning, but after I uninstalled I couldn't find it in Firefox's Extensions library!

Looking forward to being able to use it in Firefox again. Unfortunate though that it'll be the current Chrome flavour one. Always seemed to work a lot faster in Firefox than in Chrome, so I tried to push all my Mozbar usage to my "Firefox monitor" rather than my Chrome one when working.

The new Chrome browser add-on is a huge improvement.

Thanks for the heads up. Please let me know when Firefox is working again.

Thanks for sharing this.

I think Moz bar is the best item to use for SEO workers.

It present's to you a lot of services in one package, you can find Keyword difficulty, keyword explorer and other vary items.

Are  you planning on keeping the export function for the Firefox version? Will you add the export function to the Chrome version?

still not working in Firefox.......

Hi Abhishek - The Firefox version is temporarily disabled until v48 is released this Fall. In the meantime, MozBar is available in the Google Chrome store!

I am not able to see any Link Metrics - even though I'm logged into the Moz website.

Is there a current issue?

Background:

1. Using Mozbar in Chrome

2. Click the blue "Log In" link which takes me to the Moz website and I log in (I have a Moz Pro subscription).

3. Then I go back to the tab for the website I'm reviewing - Link Metrics still displays nothing.

You may find you get a better response with help@moz.com. Did you try a refresh on that page after you've logged in? Sometimes with an error turning the Moz bar on and off again ("Have you tried turning it off and on again?") resolves many issues.

Hope some of those help!

Hi, now we already have Version V49. Still The MOZ Toolbar is not working.When do you expect it will be working again? Thanks Maarten

[Roxana_Nelson]

Hi Maarten!

Thanks for your question. Re-enabling MozBar in Firefox is on our roadmap, but we don't yet have an ETA.

[btreloar]

Please do what you can about this. Many of us are waiting somewhat impatiently. Because all of my SEO plugins are on Firefox, I need to open a separate Chrome browser just to use the MozBar. I really need it back on Firefox./

[cbizzle]

Me, too.

Near as I can tell, the biggest technical blocker to porting the Chrome WebExtension to Firefox will disappear in Firefox 53[0], which lands in the general release channel on 2017-04-18[1]. In other words, now is a good time to start porting, since it can be tested in nightly today.

Going on 1 year and still not working? Not happy to switch to chrome as my other add-ons work better in Firefox Mac. Have to assume at this point FF will be unsupported? Any news would be great.

Also, you need to consider whether or not a site is indexed in Google an effect on DA. Seems odd that a 50+ DA site is de-indexed in Google but still showing great DA in Moz.

[Roxana_Nelson]

Hi Alan,

So sorry for the frustration. We know this is important to many MozBar users and hate to keep you waiting on this. At the moment, we are unable to give an ETA, but it is on our roadmap. I know I sound like a broken record but we had to prioritize this project against other big projects. Sorry, I know this is not the news you wanted to hear.

Thanks,

Roxana

Hi!

Mozilla put together a tool to help test Chrome web extensions for compatibility with Firefox. I took the liberty of running the Mozbar extension through this tool, and there is only one issue to be resolved before the existing Chrome extension will run on Firefox. Check it out:

https://www.extensiontest.com/test/857d5700-a855-11e7-9c3d-35e0bb5262dd

app.runtime is not supported

found in the following locations:
        scripts/browser_button.js:46697
        scripts/content_page.js:60933

Just a couple changes and this will work on Firefox! Any chance we'll see it soon?
