The release notes for Firefox version 140.0.1 indicate the extension button can can now be removed from the toolbar.the noes say:

"Firefox Extensions: Customize your toolbar with the option to remove the extensions shortcut, giving you more control over your browser. When the button is hidden, you can access the extensions panel again at any time from the Firefox menu by clicking the Extensions menu item."

I still cannot drag the button down and out of sight by customising the toolbar.

Suggestions welcome.

Today (06/12/2025) upon opening a new tab, Firefox slid the new option of uploading a custom picture to apply to the background. Tried the new feature, now I can not find the setting that allows me to change the picture. I read the thread "Customize your wallpapers". The instructions are as follows; You can personalize your Firefox New Tab page by adding one of the available wallpapers. Follow these steps:

  1. In the right corner of the New Tab page, click the gear IG settings icon.
  2. In the customization panel, under the Wallpapers section, you will see different categories like Solid colors, Abstract and Photographs.

       Click the category you prefer. For example, selecting Abstract will show a variety of abstract designs. 

The problem I have is the customization panel is no where to be seen, I have click on EVERYTHING possible, it is not in my settings, why? How do find this?

I have a new Brother printer MFC-L3780CDW. I can print from Foxfire internet, I can print from Microsoft Word. I can go to my Comcast online account and print emails, but I cannot print an email from Thunderbird from my desk top. I right click the email to bring up the menu. I select print and nothing happens. It dont bring up a print preview window to select printer. It does nothing. My old printer was also a Brother MFC, just an older model. everything worked fine. I called brother and they say since everything else prints it must be a problem in the Thunderbird Application

How can I remove "Firefox suggests" URLs from the address/search bar on Android? I found the help article "Firefox Suggest for Mobile" (last updated 4/22/24) but when I follow its directions, I only see the first 3 toggleable options. "Suggestions from Firefox" and "Suggestions from sponsors" don't appear at all. The suggested URLs are frequently sites I have never been to and never want to go to, and their appearance is extremely irritating. Attached is a screenshot of the settings page as it appears to me, with only 3 options.

Using Tbird 78.14.0 (64 bit) with Windows 10. I can no longer access the Page Setup screen properly. I suspect it's because I accidentally put a very big value in for the top margin. The print preview for even a short email says it's many pages, there's no text visible on any of those pages, the only part of the Page Setup screen visible is OK and Cancel at the bottom, and I can't get to the top of the screen. I've tried closing and re-opening Tbird to no avail. How can I get to the top of the Page Setup screen to fix the problem?

First of all I have seen comments that say javascript is enabled by default in Firefox. Not on my cell phone, Then there are instructions on how to enable javascript in Firefox, that doesn't work either. Cell phone info: Galaxy S20 FE %G, model SM-G781U. Firefox Version 143,0,4.

I can not use the cell phone bill using their app because it tekks me javsscript is not enabled. Cant use Reddit, etc. Any ideas what is wrong?? Thanks in advance

I recently updated my MacBook Pro to the latest MacOS (Sequoia). Though I didn't notice it immediately, today when I opened Firefox, all text is displayed in a foreign character set. It is pervasive - I've tried to use several tutorials to reset the language and all settings to default, but so far nothing has worked. I've uninstalled Firefox using AppCleaner (which gets any leftover files in OS folders, as well as the app itself), but a clean install results in the same issue. I've disabled all add-ons and reset all settings to default as near as I can tell. The only time the browser displays properly is when it's in Safe Mode. I'm not sure if this is related to the OS update, but I can't seem to identify any other recent change that could have the potential to cause this problem. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

In other browsers when I add extensions, I can open an extension panel, or got the the browsers installed extensions section, and edit open up my extension setting pages, and edit them. For example uBlock Origin, but there are others. It doesn't seem possible to do such a thing with Firefox. Is that on purpose or is something wrong?

Hi, I'm using Thunderbird version 140.0 on Windows 10 and trying to change the background of the message pane. I've tried:

1. messagepanebox {

   background-color: #e6f3ff !important; 

}

but it only changes the upper part and I can't find a way to target the whole flex container or the lower part. There is a forum response (titled Message preview pane background) that targets the message pane:

1. messagePane {

background-image: url("file:///C:/path to image/image.jpg") !important;}

and that fills the message pane when its blank at startup but it disappears when selecting a message from the list.

I can add the background-color statement to :root in Developer Tools and that only works for the current selected message. How can I change the background of the entire Message Pane - the upper and lower part that contains the contents of the message - for each message that is selected? Thanks, David

I searched how to disable any random new AI features Firefox was about to cram into the browser.

I was served this support page that says I can "Block new and current AI features (single switch)"

Simply, the described feature to disable AI features isn't in the settings. I've look and tried searching for "Block AI enhancements" & "AI controls" but no luck.

Please tell me they haven't given the writing of support pages to some shitty LLM.

With site permissions for location set to "ask to allow" I respond by allowing access to my location for a specific website, but it continuously reverts to "blocked" quickly and automatically on Firefox for Android. How do I fix this problem? I want this site to continue to access my location without intermittent blocking., as it has for more than one year without problems.

Hello, I have just upgraded to windows 11. On firefox I used to be able to right mouse click on the firefox icon in the taskbar to select my saved saved (Pinned) websites. In the past with Windows 10 I right mouse clicked on the url of favorite websites then drag and drop on the firefox icon in the taskbar and that was it. On Windows 11 that no longer works. How do I pin my favorite websites to the firefox icon in the taskbar on Windows 11? I thank anyone for your help.

I recently went back from Thunderbird daily to the release channel when I set up my new PC.

1. On opening an email - The Subject display in Daily Version is Bold and according to the font as set in Thunderbird Settings. Just Perfect. It is not the same in the Release Channel. Looks not so nice.

2. In Release Channel -- under settings If I choose to display the "Name Only" under Message List for address display format. It ignores

3. Release channel is ver 146.0.1 .. If I go back to Thunderbird daily .. will I be able to use the same profile used for the Release channel?

With my thanks in advance

Nothing works. There is an attached screen image of the Mozilla Browser Page I see. Thanks for listening.

Since 113 I have had tabs BELOW the Bookmarks toolbar i.e. at the top of the "blank" screen area.

133 has now regressed my setup, back to having tabs above the address bar. This is a bad move, as it means that once again the screen content of a tab is separated from the tab by two bars, Address and Bookmarks.

Can anyone point me to a setting or a userChrome code block that will put the tabs below the Bookmarks bar, as the css now no longer works as it stands on 133?
