Hi all,
All of a sudden i get a long list of login credentials suggestions. Normally FF would only just present login cred suggestions for the site name i'm trying to log on, but now i get a long list of them. Also for sites that i'm not on. Is this one of the 'virtues' of LockWise?
What happend along the way, and can i turn this 'feature' off so that i only get login credential suggestions for the site i'm actually trying to log on?

This is in some way only a quality of life feature (request?). Is there a quicker way for searching through your browsing history than going to the actual browsing history window and searching through it using the search bar? I'm looking for something similar to when you enter "%" in the search bar to search through your opened tabs or "?" to "go into google mode" (or whatever search engine you have set up).
Is there something like that in Firefox?

When a web interface offers image upload options, Firefox 70.0.1 on Windows 10 does not offer up any regular jpg or jpeg file extensions. All I get by default is that weird jfif format, together with png. What's that all about, and how can I fix it?
Image uploads work fine if I choose to display "all files", but something's amiss with the filtering there.
On a related note, Firefox used to save regular jpg images in its own Save Image As dialogue as jfif files too. I had to teach it to do this in jpg instead. Might be a related issue?

I want to remove ALL the passwords in firefox lockwise. No answers here. This is the worse software design I have ever seen from firefox. The old versions allowed you to delete ALL passwords with one simple click, it looks like the only way I can get passwords removed in firefox lockwise is do so individually. Who was the mental defect that designed firefox lockwise without providing a ONE CLICK way to remove all passwords?

I've been trying to use Firefox as my main browser on my Samsung Galaxy S8, but I ran into a problem on DeX (desktop mode). The browser scales pretty well in a DeX window (showing the tablet interface, not the phone one), but there seems to be no way to zoom in or out.
Normally you zoom by using 2 fingers, but of course in DeX you only have one mouse pointer, so this isn't an option.
Other browsers like Samsung Internet and Chrome deal with this by allowing you to use Control + mousewheel just like on the desktop. But Firefox doesn't have this feature. There's also no option in the menu.
Did anyone find any way to zoom in DeX mode? Many pages come up way too big or too small which is unusable.
PS: I tried Firefox Preview as well but same deal there.

I need to disable the Quick Find hotkey or change it to something else. I use the forward slash on the keypad as a divide symbol for an in-browser calculator for my online math homework. However, every time I hit forward slash, it brings up the Quick Find search bar, which means I have to stop and use my mouse to click the divide button on the calculator. This is quite frustrating and slows me down immensely when completing my homework.

IE has an option of opening an FTP site as a window in file explorer. Then you can drag and drop multiple files to the computer easily. Right now there is no easy way to get multiple files from an FTP site using firefox that I can find. Is it possible? If not, this would be a nice feature to add to a future version.

I receive spam email daily with subjects starting =?utf-8. Just setting a filter to look for those characters doesn't work. Every time I this question somewhere the answers all seem to say that I shouldn't try to block them, because they might be legitimate. I don't care! I want to block anything that isn't plain text in the header. Help!

Copy button disappeared from the context menu appearing when after three dots in the right corner are pressed. Please bring it back instead of these Android or Bluetooth buttons, it's way better than having to long press the address bar to copy the link.

I've always love the fact that I could move all the tool bars and addy bar to the bottom of the window. First this it was a menu item, no it's broken. Then an addon, now it's broken. Then it was the .css file, now it's broken with 66. How do I go about moving everything back to the bottom of the window? Why can't Mozilla relize that a lot of their users love the customizing of where the tools and how the layout is done and stop breaking it??? Why can't we have the old drag and drop customizing back?

I do my local golf club bookings for my groups and we have specific time slots we like to book on Wednesday and Saturday but competion is really fierce and just opening that webpage booking day and scrolling down the page to our preferred time to click is so competitive that someone else often grabs our time slot. First come first serve.
Is there an add-on or extension that would make this search task quicker, like being able to create toolbar buttons that I can click the desired time button that would search for say 11:16, 11.21 etc. ?
We tend to play at different times on eaxch day we play.

I like Firefox Preview and would like to switch over to it on my Android device but I cannot get bookmarklets to run.
The main one I use on the 'normal' Firefox on Android is Zotero (https://www.zotero.org/download/bookmarklet), but it would also be good to be able to run Hypothesis (https://web.hypothes.is/help/installing-the-bookmarklet/).
Is this functionality there but I've missed it? Is it planned to add this later?
Thanks, Richard

I have a Levono x223 with a short monitor running Window 7. In some websites, such a ebay, only the center portion of a pop up window fraem will show, such as clicking on the tracking number, resulting in my not being able to close the window. So far the only work around is to right click on the window and chose > This frame>Show only this frame> then click on the Go back one page arrow. I would like to find a way to either close the window with a key stroke, or some other simple way to close the window.

l want to select some text which is part of a hyperlink. I know this method:
- Press ALT.
- Select text with LMB.
- Release LMB.
- Release ALT.
which usually works but not always. It seems if the mouse is still over part of the link when the button goes up, it navigates. This can be a problem if the link extends outside the text (I think this is the cause?) For example, try selecting some or all of 'Adam Curtis' (under the date and next to the thumbnail) on this page:
https://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/adamcurtis/entries/512cde83-3afb-3048-9ece-dba774b10f89
I was not able to do this easily without triggering the link.
Is there a better way?
(I'm using FF 69 on Windows 10)
