[5.0 Beta] Zotero Firefox Logo Blank

Hi,

I'm on Mac OS X (10.10.5 (14F2411)) and since the update to Zotero 5.0, the Zotero icon in Firefox disappear even though it is "here". I mean the place for the "save to Zotero" exists, but the logo doesn't show and doesn't work.

I've updated Zotero Beta to the last version (5.0-beta.232+2ba773d61), as well as Firefox (54.0.1), Zotero Connector (5.0.7).
I tried reinstalling the Connector from Zotero Standalone, but it didn't change anything.

When I try to log what happens using Zotero logs, it shows nothing.

What it doesn't show is that when I hover the cursor over the logo it shows the tooltip "Save to Zotero"...
  • That's quite strange. Have you tried customizing the toolbar and moving the icon to other locations (e.g., the panel, where it'd be a larger size)?

    What's strange is that it's stopped working at the same as Privacy Badger the addon from the EFF.
  • Yeah, this is likely a Firefox problem, or a problem caused by a legacy Firefox extension. The Zotero Connector is a WebExtension, so there's really nothing it can do to cause this.
  • So you would suggest to start Firefox without any extensions than reactivate them one at the time, maybe?
  • yes, exactly
  • Thanks for your suggestions dstillman & adamsmith, I tried and there seems to be a strange interaction with RequestPolicy. So maybe I should report a bug over there (and there has been already a bug with Zotero https://github.com/RequestPolicyContinued/requestpolicy/issues/52)

    Ok I think I understood, I had problems because I was using the old version of RequestPolicy, not the Continued version, so with updates in both Zotero & Firefox it may have broken something at some point.

    Maybe we can close the subject now.
