    FWIW, this function still works correctly in Firefox. It's a long story, but I was using Firefox briefly a month ago because I had an issue with Chrome, but then it was fixed and I was back to Chrome. But it later occurred to me, maybe I could export on there, so I tried it and I was able to get the popup to save unlike in Chrome now, so that's what I do now to backup the HIT Tracker. It's the only thing I'm doing on Firefox, just syncing and saving the history. It's not as easy as just downloading the extension on there to set it up, it takes a little bit of time, but not that bad and it was worth it so that I can have the peace of mind of having my history backed up.

    Did you import data from Chrome to Firefox? Or have you been running MTS in parallel on both browsers?

    Imported. What I had previously saved in Chrome, I imported. Then re-synced and exported the most current one.

    Basically the same process I did when I got a new laptop a year ago. Set up Tampermonkey, MTurk Suite, and TurkerView on Firefox. Imported my backups from Chrome for those, input anything asked for (like the TurkerView API code) and it seems to be working okay.

    How do I transfer the settings from one browser to another?

    Settings? Or your HIT Tracker data?

    If you actually mean "settings", then I don't think there's an easy way of moving them over to a new browser, you'll just have to change them manually, but it shouldn't take more than a few minutes, there aren't that many settings. :dunno:

    If you mean HIT Tracker data or your HIT Finder include / block lists, then you can totally transfer those, you'll just have to do the export / import thing. This post goes into more detail on how you can do it: https://forum.turkerview.com/posts/21902717/

    I meant the block list.
