Firefox Community Forum

I use a website often where the links on any given page change colour if I have previously visited that page referenced by that link. This was an easy way for me to keep track of which pages I have accessed before. In the past, Firefox would retain this information so that I could see where I had been even if I last visited the site several years in the past. At present, if I visited the site more than 6 months ago, I can no longer see it. How can I change the settings so that my browsing history is retained indefinitely?.

I have backups of the AppData profile folders which I'm hoping that I can restore once the setting is changed so that I can once again see my history on this website.

required platform is MacOS. In order to file a support ticket with a organization I need to send them browsing history. Sending the entire history is unacceptable. I need to be able to search Firefox history for their URLs, narrow those by date, and export just the relevant data.

I have only seen an extension to export the entire history. I need this to be a fast operation not requiring installing sqlite3 or manually editing very large html or other files.

If there is not an extension capable of doing this, then it needs to be added as a core enhancement.

Firefox does not delete history by using any of the recommended procedures. Clear recent does not work either. The only way I can delete history in by going to manage history and manually deleting.

Can you remove the really annoying History bug? whenever i have searched something from the full history and copy or open some webpage, or maybe the same domain, i dont know.... it automatically moves the Selection/last copy line upwards 1 step - so if i open 2-5 more pages, it will move the highlighted selection upwards 2-5 more lines.....

so it basically needs to bug around like that and not move my last position upwards all of the time, because i just lose track of what i have already copied before, etc....

4-5 months ago the right click option to delete SEARCH history disappeared and then was returned to users after numerous complaints. Now, with the release of V154, not only is the right click to delete search history gone once again, the Search History box is also gone, thereby leaving just the normal address box - which also does not include the right click to delete SEARCH history.

Why do in multiple steps what we used to be able to do in ONE?

I for got my account then I also for got the site. Search I think 6 hours age I don't know but the possible irst letter is JL I DONT KNOW jl1 to 10please help me to see all site. Search ast 5 to 10 hours ago thank you

up until this latest version you could delete your search history with a simple right click. This option no longer exists and there is no easily found way to delete "Search History" where did it go? will it be returned? is Search History no longer delete able?

Hi I noticed that some old links in my history are automatically deleted. How to configure expiration rules (if possible) in order to keep links forever, until manual deletion? I know that links can be saved in the bookmarks, but when browsing the Internet, unless bookmarking everything :(, no one knows if a link can be useful in the future.

Thanks for your help
