Read Next 1.5 release candidate 1 released!

This is a release candidate of the next version of Read Next, the reading list extension for Firefox from AE Creations. Unless there are any last-minute showstopper bugs, this may become the official release of Read Next 1.5.

Read on to learn what's new in this version of Read Next, and how to get it!

What's New 

  • Links can now be renamed. To rename a link, right-click in the reading list sidebar and then select Rename in the context menu
  • Improvements to navigation and scrolling of the reading list using the keyboard
  • New links are now highlighted in the sidebar when they're added
  • When showing only unread links in the reading list, links will now be automatically shown or hidden as their unread status changes when clicked or navigating to them in the browser

How to Get It

If you've installed the preview release or any of the beta releases of Read Next 1.5, you'll be automatically updated to this release candidate build if automatic add-on updates are turned on in Firefox.

New users can install this release candidate build by heading over to the Read Next 1.5 release candidate 1 page on GitHub and then clicking the link to readnext-1.5rc1.xpi. Follow the prompts to complete the installation.
