- Rated 4 out of 5by denb10, 5 years agoClippings is a very useful extension that works great.
However, I have two negative reviews (that earn it one star less):
1. The choices offered for the predefined "Formatted Date" placeholder are for English speakers only, they are not localized. This is a shame.
2. The setup of the sync clippings helper app requires administrator rights and the synchronization can only be activated by the user who installed the program. As a result, a standard user (who does not have administrator privileges) cannot synchronize his clippings. This is annoying.
Would it be possible to solve these two problems? Thank you! - Rated 4 out of 5by hg firefox, 5 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by sudo, 5 years agoGreat little extension. It would be even better if it could be opened in the sidebar. Do please consider it. Thank you.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Phillip, 5 years agoThis applet is fantastic. I use SolarWinds helpdesk and hate that SW doesn't have a signature option for ticket comments. Clippings has made it possible for me to quickly insert my custom signature on helpdesk tickets. It took me a bit of work to figure out where the Shortcut Key assignment options were buried (In Clippings Manager -> Tools -> Show/Hide -> Details Pane) but now that I have set up my shortcut key it's a quick 2-keystroke move.
I love it.
Thank you!!!! - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14301361, 5 years ago

- Rated 4 out of 5by ethos, 5 years agoThis is a very helpful addon. But it currently requires a standalone tool to realize syncing. Could firefox's built-in sync function be utilized? Thank you !

posted 5 years agoFirefox Sync doesn't have the ability to sync with Thunderbird. If you want to synchronize your clippings with Thunderbird or other Firefox installations, install the Sync Clippings Helper App: https://aecreations.sourceforge.io/clippings/sync.php - Rated 5 out of 5by Fangzhou, 5 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by dpq06, 5 years agoGood stuff. Unfortunately I can't use it how I wanted to since Firefox disables the standard context menu in the URL bar for some reason. If there is a workaround for this I'd be glad to know.

posted 5 years agoWhat exactly are you referring to by "the URL bar"? Clippings only shows its context menu in a web page textbox or HTML editor, so I don't understand your assertion that it should have been visible in "the URL bar." Please post to the AE Creations Help and Support forums with a screen shot and steps to reproduce your issue: https://groups.google.com/g/aecreations-help - Rated 5 out of 5by splintereyes, 5 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by LWChris, 5 years agoVery useful add-on. Would be great if the reminder to save the Clippings knew whether there's something new to export or not. I'm getting the reminder although I didn't change any Clippings since the last export.

posted 5 years agoGood point. I'll look into adding an enhancement in a future version. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13464711, 5 years agogood addon, one missing features would be a click button that appears once you hover over a typefield, so you can see your clippings seperately without cluttering & wasting time. (like the addon InFormEnter+).
Also i need an option checkbox to change the clippings behaviour, it should always delete my existing typing when i press a clipping.
Is it possible to change the rightclick menu clippings position as well? would like an option top middle below.
otherwise great job. - Rated 5 out of 5by reinaldo, 5 years ago
