Firefox version

[poperigby]

I'd like to help out with this but I use Firefox. It shouldn't be too difficult to convert, because both Chrome and Firefox use the WebExtensions standard.

You're more than welcome to convert it yourself, but given there's now six days before Yahoo deletes everything, I don't think there'll be time to make a FF version (which sucks, I know - I had to download Chrome to do this).

You're welcome to convert it yourself, of course.

You can probably just try it in Firefox and see how it goes as Firefox supports most of the chrome.* calls.

Hi. I just changed all the chrome calls to browser calls. Grab a copy here. To use it, load it via the debug page, click "Load Temporary Add-on ...", load the mainfest.json file in that folder you just cloned (or the folder which you extracted the Downloaded zip file from the green button on the repo to).

Disclaimer: I have no guarantee that this would work.

Update: Since the code is structured only for Chrome, I didn't start a pr.

@fakeinc have you tested this? The browser calls use promises instead of callbacks. The chrome calls are for the most part supported on Firefox however.

I have tested it. It seems that it doesn't work for the part of routing to another search page after joining the group. However, I'm not sure if it successfully archives it, thus I'm putting it here and see if it's of some value.

Update: Ah, well. I think I got it. This extension is not actually archiving the website, it just provides a way for you to easily find those groups. Thus, not auto leading you to the next group is making it less useful. You can still manually press start though.
