Using JSTorrent Helper Extension with GitHub JSTorrent Version
Is there a way to have the JSTorrent Helper Extension work with the GitHub version of JSTorrent?
Yes, I did - doesn't work, unfortunately.

It should work just fine. Did you try?

@kzahel Same issue here. Is it because the helper extension requires JSTorrent Lite or JSTorrent Full, while name of the extension is JSTorrent? I have anhdpjpojoipgpmfanmedjghaligalgb installed, so I don't think the name should matter.

It's just looking for the ID, and yours does match (which it should if you download off github)
I've seen that message pop up when signing in for the first time on a chromebook, and when apps sync, if the extension sync's before the app sync's, then it will detect that the app is not yet installed.
In this case it is installed, so I don't see what's going wrong.
Have you tried going to http://jstorrent.com and clicking on the icon near the star in the URL bar (allow handling magnet: links), you might find that to be even better than using the extension.
