1097720 - "feedly" add-on does not work with e10s

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Firefox :: Extension Compatibility, defect)

Description

[Liz Henry (:lizzard)]

The Feedly addon installs and can be enabled, but may not work. It's difficult to tell for sure, since adding an RSS feed with e10s enabled crashes Firefox with or without Feedly installed (See bug 1006334).

I am reading https://feedly.com/index.html#latest in nightly firefox for a long time, making heavy use of keyboard shortcuts.

Recently I have turned e10s back on since add-ons and devtools (debugging) has started working quite well.

Feedly keyboard shortcuts (e.g. r, g a, even ?) now bring up the findbar for a few seconds, as verified in the browser Console with:

00:26:00.004 window.addEventListener('keypress', function (e) { console.log(e.type, e.target.hidden); }, false)
00:26:00.029 undefined
00:29:45.000 fb = gBrowser.getFindBar()
00:29:45.013 <findbar hidden="true">
00:29:49.352 fb.addEventListener('change', function (e) { console.log(e.type, e.target.hidden); }, false)
00:29:49.391 undefined
00:29:54.311 "keypress" false
00:29:59.514 "change" true

The keyboard shortcuts no longer perform their actions (e.g. refresh, goto all, help).

That functionality returns when turning e10s off again.

Keyboard shortcuts (I mostly use j, k, v, r, s) started working for me in nightly firefox on windows xp yesterday and still works with today's nightly with e10s enabled.

With Firefox 57 only WebExtensions are permitted and are, by default, e10s compatible.
