I'm looking to create an "Exit Button" in the Bookmarks Toolbar. I found how to create a Restart Button (creating a Bookmark with the URL about:restartrequired), but I'm having a hard time finding for Exit (or close all Firefox Windows). Perhaps it is not possible, I don't know.
For those of us receiving email in multiple languages, it would be awesome to have #Firefox Translate built in to Thunderbird. No sending your sensitive conversations to a corporate cloud, just a lean translation service running locally.
We've decided to make it a development priority for Q1 2024!
I am running Kubuntu 23.10 on Wayland and Firefox (snap version) does not show a Minimize or Maximize Button anymore in the top right corner (see attached screenshot)....

You may want to take a look at the @tuxedocomputers repositories, that's how I get my #Firefox.
(Full disclosure: I bought a machine with it preinstalled) @JTskulk
I wrote this blog post to inform the people I know who aren't as tech savvy or otherwise don't put any thought into their choice of browser. Another goal is to help get enough awareness on the topic and make sure it fails.
Is there a way to see how much memory each Firefox Add-On uses? I've tried to look into "about:processes", and "about:memory". The first one tells you the total amount of memory used by the Add-Ons, and the latter gives you a 30,000 page long report that I don't know how to make heads or tails of. I KNOW my Add-Ons are eating up a lot of memory. I want to know WHICH ones are eating up the most so I can know which ones I should maybe shut down. Ideally, I wouldn't shut any down because they are all geared toward productivity. But maybe I can prioritize some over others.
Is there an easy way to view this information? Something akin to the Chrome web browser?
Basically If i search for a term in the address bar such as "Cheese" and press enter. Then it'll hang for awhile, and not do anything. But If I press enter again, it'll show the google page result for cheese.
Just wondering if anyone else has this issue, because chrome doesn't do this.
well, as to try to solve my other issue I’ve reinstalled Firefox on my iPhone, however, this has created more issues. Whenever I “restart”(drag at the bottom of the screen and drag the Firefox app up) Firefox forceboots me out of the app. This happens 50% of the time, aka every other time the app force boots me out then it just allows me to use it as normal. A side effect of this is that it keeps opening the oldest tab opened, instead of the one I was most recently viewing.
Is there any way to fix this? As I said before, Firefox 116 on iOS 16
How to see full URL when searching using Google in Firefox Nightly?
Right now I'm on 117.0a1 and I only see the search term in the url bar, which is improper.
Is there am about:config toggle for this.
I have the default one URL bar view set.
I got an issue with youtube not recommending videos on firefox, i tried going to safe to see if it was an extension issue but it isn't, i tried in chrome if the recommendations was working and it did ( i did this when logged out). It just recommended the new trending videos that i don't like. I'm in firefox 116
Forgive if this is not going to be formatted well, I’m still very new here. Anyways
I run iOS 16 and Firefox 116. The problem is that sometimes all my tabs(even private one) randomly close. This is really annoying as I often open new tabs when skimming wikis. The only real answer I can think of is having too many tabs open, but this is ruled out since my most recent crash happend when I had 10 tabs opened. I really want to stop this from happening.
I've been having issues with Firefox on certain sites like Nexusmods.
Whenever I get a notification on the bell on the website, I get an error " Connection Error: Try reloading the notifications" and it doesn't go away even if I reload. I have to mark all notifications as read with the Mark All as Read button to get the notifications to disappear.
Looking for a "Back Button" or a "Back Feature" that can bring me back to my previous position on a Webpage. Similarly to the Alt + Left Hotkey, I'm looking for a Hotkey that would bring me Back to my Previous "Views" or Previous "Positions", but on the same Page. For anyone who uses Visual Studio Code, I'm looking for that same "Back" feature. Perhaps there's a Firefox Add-On, or maybe even there's a built in feature to Firefox?
Way to prevent new tabs from opening and downloads?
Hi, new to fedia.
I was looking for settings or add-ons that would let me toggle the ability to open new tabs on or off on certain domains and also toggle on or off downloads. Occasionally I find spyware in my downloads and would also like to prevent pop up ads.
A while ago someone helped me to eliminate the top tab bar so i could just have my Tree Style Tab on the side. It works great but i was wondering if there was any way to make that a toggle? Cause sometimes I move my computer to a smaller monitor and the horizontal space that it takes can be inconvinient.
Here's the snippet for removing it in the first place:
/* hides the native tabs */ #TabsToolbar { visibility: collapse; }/* leaves space for the window buttons */ #nav-bar { margin-top: -30px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: -4px; }
Also, since i have you here, i couldn´t manage to create a floating o just an existing "three buttons" (like the minimize maximize and close buttons). So if you know about any one of those it´d be really helpful.
if you have traffic stats on your system you'll see bytes trickling in the moment you render the html - not when you click the Play button. This is acknowledged in the devtools network-tab after it is fetched in full
until fetched in full, the Play button will not stream the audio file
Is there a Keyboard Shortcut to put the focus on Firefox's Sidebar?
I use the Add-On "Bookmark search plus 2" which is really awesome. When I activate it's Keyboard Shortcut (Ctrl + Q), the Sidebar opens, but I have to use my mouse to click on the Sidebar to grant it focus. I looked around online and haven't found anything. If anyone knows of a way, a Keyboard Shortcut, a tool or another Add-On perhaps, please let me know! Cheers!
Okay, so I want to request a feature, specifically a specific site specific subtitle wrapper for the website Weverse. You can see after some time why subtitles on pip would be useful on this website.
Not quite sure if I'm posting at the right place. I would normally be posting this on the Reddit r/Firefox channel. Anyhow, here goes.
I'm trying to get Firefox's Reader View function to work with Outlook Web Emails. It doesn't work on my end and I was wondering if it's perhaps because of a setting or another Add-On I'm using that might interfere with this function. On a side note, I tested another Reader Extensions via the Brave Browser. It seems to work when I'm viewing the overall Emails in the Inbox, but it still doesn't work with an opened Email. Microsoft never ceases to amaze... but anyhow, micro-rant aside, has anyone encountered this behavior? Are there any workarounds?
All legacy technical posts will remain available so that searching for help related to the browser is still available, but henceforth and until the reddit admins appropriately reply to our concerns, the only new submissions allowed will be ones that contain the cuddly fuzzy little animals from which the subreddit indirectly received its name:
The red panda! Also known as fire foxes.
If you are looking for technical posts, we now have an official community on Kbin. Keep in mind that Lemmy also federates with Kbin. We continue to be around on Matrix as well.
The subreddit & Kbin magazine aren't run by Mozilla but are still a very important forum for the browser.
Do give them a follow on @firefox - you should be able to follow that from most of the Fediverse i.e. Mastodon, Calckey, etc etc etc
