Description Philippe ROUBACH 2019-07-11 11:29:09 UTC 
there was a useful firefox addon "KDE wallet password integration"

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/kde-wallet-password-integratio/

but
now it's dev "Guillermo Molina" uses no more FF and abandoned the addon development
he says "I don't use firefox any more, but I will try to make the plugin work again"

see here

http://kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=116886&forumpage=4

it would be a good thing kde keeps on going to develop this addon
or 
as chromium integrates kwallet technology.



It seems there is no more  any source of this add-on. All links to the source are obsolete. There is nothing now at dev website about this add-on.

Happily someone saves the source here. 

https://github.com/SicVolo/firefox-kde5-wallet

It's the source + a fix according the add-on is compliant with qt < 5.7 because the original source is compliant with qt >= 5.7

It is not signed.

the original source get 1.3 version number
this fork gets 1.3.1

That extension uses Firefox' old XPI extension API? I don't think we have the neccessary APIs in Web Extensions to provide seamless integration.

Yes that why we can't find anymore this extension at mozilla addons site.

Then I don't see what I can do differently about this...

Sorry but i am not a dev.i only supply an existing software. 

I think it is easier to start from an existing software than from nothing. You or someone must built a fork. That's what sicvolo dev did.
