  • Fixed a bug related to categories with ampersands in their names

You can install the new version by visiting the official ScribeFire website, downloading and then installing the new update or, if you have ScribeFire already installed, FireFox should notify you of the update and provide a method of automatically installing it.

  1. I used to have my set way of blogging until I found ScribeFire. I’ve been using it a lot to conduct my posts for Performancing.com and if the post is simple, I use it to create and then publish my posts on my WordPress powered blog. I’ve also used the extension as a WYSIWYG editor for writing styled comments.
