Monthly update: July 2023

Here's what happening in the month of July!

A new version of Clippings, the extension for Firefox from AE Creations that lets you save frequently-entered text for later pasting into web page forms, will be coming out soon. It is currently under review by the Firefox Add-ons review team. An announcement will be posted here once it is released.

Clippings for Thunderbird 6.3 was just released, and is compatible with Thunderbird 115. Current users of Thunderbird who want to get this new version of Clippings for Thunderbird can wait for the new version of Thunderbird to be available to upgrade; if you don't want to wait, you can download and install Thunderbird 115 now. 

Over the next few weeks, I'll be working on some improvements to Read Next, the reading list extension for Firefox -- watch this blog for an announcement on a beta release. I'll also resume working on the next version of Panic Button which is being converted to a Manifest V3 extension.

Clippings for Thunderbird 6.3 released!

Clippings for Thunderbird 6.3 is the newest version of the Thunderbird add-on that brings the convenience of Clippings to the popular open-source email client. It is now available from Add-ons for Thunderbird and the AE Creations website.

If you already have an older version of Clippings for Thunderbird installed, it will be upgraded for you once Thunderbird is upgraded to version 115; make sure that automatic extension updates are turned on.

What's New

• Symbols and emojis are now supported in placeholder default values

Compatibility

Clippings for Thunderbird 6.3 is compatible with Thunderbird 115. It is not compatible with Thunderbird 102. If you're still on Thunderbird version 102, either upgrade to version 115 to get this new release of Clippings, or stick with Clippings for Thunderbird 6.2.6 for now.
