Update: New AMO Launched

Just a quick addendum to the earlier post: New AMO Launched. Basil Hashem who is part of the AMO Team added a comment in reference to the inability to install incompatible add-ons:

Try visiting the “Advanced Details” section and take a look at the Complete Version History link – it includes all available versions and doesn’t do the smart detection so that testers, developers and others can download any version of an add-on (for whatever OS platform and edition of Firefox) you want without the hassle.

Here is an example:

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addons/versions/1865

Now I can understand the justification for keeping this section collapsed by default, since everyday Firefox users really won’t have a need to go here. There is also a link to the add-on Developer’s Home Page in this section as well.

  1. hmm..
    That seems to be okay
    But I hate it that when I do a search, I am unable to sort by Name or sort by Latest Updated or something..
    As of now, when doing a search, it seems to sort by popularity..

    Also, I can’t seem to browse the latest updated or newest added Addons…

    Wonder if there are solutions for both of these problems.. 🙂
