Extensions not working

laiz

I can confirm the new web store doesn't work on Version 0.99.125-beta (WebKit 616.1.22).
The good news is that it works on the current RC build (Version 0.99.125.4-rc (WebKit 617.1.6)) which should be landing on beta branch soon!

Steps to reproduce:
Extensions like decentraleyes, privacybadger and popup blocker should work but they don’t.

Expected behavior:
Extensions should work like privacybadger blocking things correctly and decentraleyes doing it’s job but popup blocker should stop popups.

instead of posting these very vague and unhelpful bugs, id suggest seeing of there's a post for each extension, and upvote that. if not, make one separately for each extension. also, describe in detail how to observe the extensions not working.
also, ios extension capability is limited as apple doesn't allow patching webkit.

Steps to reproduce:
I have installed:

LastPass (mostly not working)
Descentraleyes (I haven't been able to determine if it is working)
Video Download Helper (not working)
PureVPN (not working)
WindScribe VPN (not working)

Expected behavior:
I would have expected the extensions to work as they do in Firefox or Chrome, but they are not working.

Orion, OS version; hardware type:
I am on MacOS Monterey 12.2.1, Orion 0.99.113.1.

LastPass not opening anything in the extension window:

Video Downloader "grabbing" the video, but not downloading anything

mrpeperoni Extension support is experimental. When making a bug report do it for one issue at a time.

Dashlane is also not working for me.

LastPass works for me, but I had to install it via the Chrome store. The extension via Firefox didn't work.

Steps to reproduce: Add any extension like Monica or UniJump, I used compatibility mode and still did not work || Links to the extensions UniJump - https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/unijump-shortcut-for-chat/olikadnicfhhpkfleolncoligkdcmjai
Monica - https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/monica-—-your-chatgpt-cop/ofpnmcalabcbjgholdjcjblkibolbppb?hl=en

Expected behavior:
I expect it to work normally, as it works in chrome.

OmPatel You will soon not need this as you will be able to access AI models natively in Orion

Maestro

You beat me to posting this! 🙂

Latest RC has the same problem.

Edit: Using Edge under User Agent got around this.

OmPatel

Maestro Thank you for the update

OmPatel

Vlad I appreciate your update and feedback on the project. I commend your efforts to improve this product, but I urge you to address this issue as soon as possible. This issue prevents us from using third-party extensions, which limits our options and flexibility. Some third-party extensions may offer features that are more suitable for our needs than the official one.

OmPatel extensions apis are being worked on
extension suport isn’t made per-extension but by implementing each api individually so some stuff just wnot work well yet

Vlad

OmPatel There are over 300,000 extensions out there, how would you go about prioritizing which one gets our attention first?

OmPatel

eirk I did not know that, I thought a bug prevented the extensions from working. Take Brave as an example ( Although it is built on chromium thus it is stupid to take that as an example but oh well )all the extensions work. Now that you have informed me i understand how hard it is. Thank you for informing me. I am sorry if i seemed rude in my previous posts but had no intensions of implying that you guys and not working hard enough.

Vlad

OmPatel Brave took Chromium and it took exactly zero effort for extensions to work.

Orion took Webkit and it takes enormous effort to make extensions that were never meant to work in WebKit, suddenly work, processes that we have been doing for the last 4 years.
