    Diigo conflicts with the vimperator addon: http://vimperator.org/trac/wiki/Vimperator

    It shows a box with the text: "Diigo Uploading snapshot of the bookmark" right over the vimperator command prompt.

    That has nothing to do with my case:

    I'm using Diigo Addon v3.1.6.16; Vimperator v2.1 and Firefox v3.5

    It shows a box with the text: "Diigo Uploading snapshot of the bookmark" right over the vimperator command prompt.

    I can't find a purpose for this box since I haven't bookmarked anything. Couldn't this box show at the top below the address bar like every notification from Firefox itself and other addons like LastPass?

    You tagging this as resolved is pure arrogance. Your addon makes it impossible to use another addon, that I use everyday.

    Sorry for the reference to topics relating to Vimperator, and sorry for the tag. The tag is removed.

    I don't use Vimperator. Please, can you provide a screen shot of what's happening?

    Have developers of Vimperator responded to the bug report?

    I never see that box or that text in Diigo 3.1.6.16. When the bookmark dialogue closes, the underlying window is uninterrupted:

    The MozillaZine Knowledge Base list of problematic extensions (updated June 2009) does not list Diigo; and in its history (dating back to 2005) Diigo does not appear.

    That said: if there's a conflict, we should help developers in the two/three areas to resolve it.

    (I neither work for Diigo, nor develop for Mozilla.)

    Hi,

    I'm having the same issue with vimperator and diigo toolbar.

    I have created screen shots of the problem:
    Diigo toolbar addon disabled - full vimperator prompt is visible (bottom left)
    http://lh5.ggpht.com/_OG70ilseKlo/SlFVKqxZ6yI/AAAAAAAAARE/dP4yY0RAOCA/s800/vimperator.png

    Diigo toolbar addon enabled - vimperator prompt is covered by diigo message (bottom left)
    http://lh5.ggpht.com/_OG70ilseKlo/SlFVKhQJFbI/AAAAAAAAARI/2MLaYQ-0c8c/s800/vimperator_plus_diigo.png

    The diigotoolbar itself is hidden as I use only the add bookmark functionality via keyboard shortcut.

    Diigo toolbar version: 3.1.6.16
    Vimperator version: 2.1
    Firefox version: 3.0.11

    Thanks for the screen shots.

    Have you tried those options?

    Well the whole point of running the vimperator is to get rid of the menu and toolbars as everything can be accessed via the commandline :).

    Still here's a screenshot with the bars enabled using the ":set guioptions+=mT":

    Thanks for the additional experiment and shot. Aiming to visualise which aspects of the products are/are not in conflict with each other.

    (I'm OK working in nano but get totally lost in vim :)

    Whilst we await a fix from developers:

    * if the Vimperator add-on is preferred, then disable the Diigo add-on and use Diigolet.

    Regards
    Graham

    An alternative workaround, unsupported:

    1. install Nightly Tester Tools then restart Firefox

    2. downgrade your Diigo installation from 3.1.6.16 to 3.1.6.13

    Thanks for the advice. The diigolet is nice but it involves to many clicks to my taste.
    I did the downgrade for now. Hope this issue can be resolved.

    I've reported it on the vimperator bug tracker.
    http://vimperator.org/trac/ticket/319

    And we've got a nice workaround (that was fast I might add :))

    :sty -n diigo chrome://* #diigotb-upload-msg { display: none; }

    Indeed the issue seems to be in the diigo toolbar.
    Cheers,
    Konrad
