cmd+numbers on alphanumeric keys should switch to respective tab (cmd+1 to 1st tab, cmd+5 to fifth...). With CZ keyboard layout on MacOS, cmd+1 does NOT switch to first tab, it Zooms In instead. No other browser (Edge, Safari, Opera, Orion) exhibits this behaviour. Other numbers work as expected.

FF 98.0.2 on Monterey 12.2.1.

How do I fix this? Thanks.

I currently have this add-on installed. It allows you to you highlight certain text, then right click and open up a link to Wiktionary in another tab. Up until a few minutes ago, this menu item was at the very top of the list (i.e. above "undo" and all the rest), but now it's been moved down with all the other add-ons. Image for further clarity.

The add-on hasn't been updated in 6 years, so it's certainly not that. I don't recall doing anything to make it change, but before this, it had been at the top of the menu ever since I added it maybe 2 years ago. Is there any potential way to restore this functionality? The fact that it appeared at the very top of the menu might have been a bug, but if that's the case, it was certainly a convenient one.

Anyway, I'll be looking forward to hearing from you fine folks in this community.

I used to get a display in the middle of a "New Page" with Firefox - recent revisions have removed that and I only get a Google search bar at top of new page. Help is appreciated. What I am looking for is displayed in images from my Chrome browser - similar, but not like the way Firefox displayed it.

Dark Theme works great on one PC (Windows 10) and not on Server 2019 - which is fundamentally Windows 10) - see images. One the correct, PC, search and address bar are dark with white text on the other it's light with dark text.

Is this a bug or known - and if known, why?

I was trying to install this flatpak, however it always saves its flatpakref (fig. 1) instead of opening it via discover.

discover backend works correctly (fig. 2).

$ plasma-discover-backend-flatpak is already at the latest version 5.24.7-0ubuntu0.1~ubuntu22.04~ppa1 plasma-discover-backend-flatpak is already at the latest version 5.24.7-0ubuntu0.1~ubuntu22.04~ppa1

I've setup any flatpakrefs to open via discover (fig. 3), however it won't work. are there anything i've forgot to do?

I download many pdf and Word files each day for marking. Opening pdf files in Adobe Reader works automatically OK, but Word files no. This archived question gives a link to an answer that does not work. "If Firefox does not have a set download action for a type of file, Firefox will save the file by default. If you select Always Open Similar Files in the Downloads panel right-click context menu for the file, (see below) a new Content Type and Action entry will be added to the General panel Applications section of Firefox settings." I went through the Always Open step, but no "Content Type and Action entry" was added.

Judging by the questions in Firefox and more widely, many people are having the same problem. Why cannot the industry standard file types be added to that list by default?

When I have to reinstall Firefox (it is needed frequently), I have to edit/delete a number of unwanted browser search tools. This principle could be used for the list of automatically opened file types as part of Firefox default settings.

Pretend I have examplesite.com set to default to my "example sites" container.

If I opened a "personal sites" container tab and typed in examplesite.com, it would ask me if I want to open it in that container or the default container.

It no longer does this, but instead just changes it to the default container. I don't know if it is because of an update or something else. I've looking in the settings, but can't find anything about this.

I frequently open certain sites in multiple containers, but still the majority of the usage is in a single container, so I have them set to a default. Currently, however, I have no way to open these sites in anything but their default container. I am using Firefox Developer Edition 107.0b9 (64-bit), but I also see it in regular Firefox 106.0.3 (64-bit).

Hopefully there is a configuration that I can set somewhere! Thanks :)

Starting some time ago (not sure what update it was), my system buttons turned transparent on my Firefox installation. It happens whenever I use any light (white taskbar background, system pages backgrounds, etc.) Firefox full theme, and there are many tabs in the window (the buttons start to glitch as I open more 'live' tabs, then go completely; empty ones don't seem to count). They are still functional, just transparent. The problem is not specific to my main profile, I have reproduced it on clean profile with only a theme installed (so, no addons are involved). It doesn't happen, though, when I:

• use any dark theme
• use a Firefox Color theme
• activate Troubleshoot Mode (obviously, as the themes themselves are not enabled)

WTF? Any further ideas to investigate?

My curser what seems to be randomly turns into a hand Which is un precise and sometimes will open items I do not want opened. For instance whrn I am checking the little box on email. I need just a pointer! I know windows settings allow changes to pointers Where do I change it in my browser? How can I change this I cannot find any information in settings,

Every time I close and re-open firefox, the extensions Ublock Origin and Translate Web Pages become invisible in my tool bar even though they are pinned. The extensions also stop working until I disable and then enable them again, as well as this they also lose all settings I have saved on them. For some reason other extensions such as Youtube enhancer do not do this and work perfectly fine. I have tried looking up the question to find related but not applicable solutions. any help appreciated

on all msn articles i open there is a news clip next to it , it so large it covers part of the first 2 paragraphs, it does not do this on chrome

see below

My windows 11 laptop is set to reboot when updates are available, they happen when I've put the device to sleep. as a result all the tabs I had open are gone upon restart. Unfortunately, the "history->recently closed tabs" and "startup->settings->open previous windows and tabs" are greyed, I can't seem to find a way to fix this. Any ideas? Note, this is a new laptop, I used PCMover to transfer all my data/programs from an older laptop to this new machine, and that machine was windows 10 (if that would make any difference). Also, I do keep firefox on this machine up to date.

If I open multiple browser windows, each one moves about 1/4 inch to the right of the previous browser window. So if for example I opened 12 new browser windows, the 12th one would end up about 3 inches to the right of the first one. This is most annoying. How do I get each new browser window to open in precisely the same place as the previous browser window already open?

Any help would be much appreciated.

i ve been sing firefox since 2006, but now it is becoming v annoying cuz of the f 10 option.. a user ve to enable the menu bar to avoid shuffling between show and hide the menu bar which makes the page v small, when there is already an option ( alt button ) then why there is another ( f 10 ) button is bound to it? plz remove f 10 as i ve to use this for another purpose.. and do not show the password window until any login page is browsed as we ve to cancel it each time we open firefox and most of the time we do not need it..its extremely annoying .

Don't scroll to the bottom of page when disabling an add-on! It is VERY ANNOYING!

I need to disable and turn on several add-ons and it keeps jumping to the bottom of the page when the on and off status of an add-on is changed!

PLEASE MAKE IT STOP DOING THAT!!!!!!!!
