Firefox Community Forum

Hello, I recently learned that browsers will condense spaces written in HTML down a single space. As someone who thinks putting two spaces after a period is more legible, I was wondering if there is a way to disable this, either in settings or with a browser extension. I know this will result in a less consistent browsing experience because not everyone types this way, however it will make my browsing experience better when reading things written by people who also believe in using two spaces. Thank you.

How to delete the word finder toolbar at the bottom of the browser?

I tried to change the wallpaper but instead found different color settings for the browser. I selected one, but nothing changed, except now I have this word finder toolbar so anytime I type something it pops up and I have to reset focus every time from it back to my computer page. This basically makes my computer unusable.

Extensions, such as Dark Reader, don't work on some designated web-sites. For example: support.mozilla.org addons.mozilla.org accounts.firefox.com

I have a few extensions in Firefox but if I click on the extensions button in the toolbar it now takes me to a Personalize Firefox page where, if I click on Extensions, it only gives me the option of turning them off or on and not to activate or access them. For instance, one extension is Volume Booster which cannot be adjusted on this page. How can I get back to being able to actually using these add-ons?

After realizing what was being done to my PC, I unplugged it to stop the hacker. And I have since been able to recover my program, except for my ad blocker. Before this unusual encounter, I was using a free ad blocker. I want to restore it to its original status, if possible. Thank you for any help, Leman H Wilson at 7:09 PM 6-3-26

There is an Add-on that I am using that have needed an update for some time now, and the creator has already finished with the update and sent it to Mozilla for approval, but they are not responding to the request. It has now been over a week, while Chrome approved it in a matter of hours.

Is there any way to ask Mozilla to speed up the approval of updates for Add-ons? The one in question is this one: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/croptix/

Thanks!

Hello. I developed an addon to delete multiple reddit posts. It's built with the help of claude but regularly passes ReferenceError: browser is not defined

I'm adding the 3 files for the overview. Does firefox need some sort of API? https://storage.to/c/IXAJT4jqn

I have seen many topics about creating your own extension and uploading it to Mozilla for approval but not publishing it so that you can use it yourself only, but none of them tell you what to do after your extension has successfully passed review. I would like to install the extension that I created (and can see in the "My Add-ons" area of mozilla.org), but I have no idea how to do that. Do any of you have any experience with this? This extension was previously only for Chrome but I made some changes to make it Firefox compatible, and I don't want to publish it since it's technically someone else's work. Thanks.

Hi all,

After the last update the former Mozilla Test Pilot "Snooze Tabs" isn't working for me any more, I tell a tab to snooze and it just stays where it is. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/addon/snoozetabs/

I've tried running with addons disabled and then running with addons active again and the behaviour is the same. It's the same behaviour whether I run from the toolbar or the context menu.

I'm presuming this problem is related to Firefox update mechanics. Any suggestions for how to get this working again please?

Cheers :)

I'm running full screen on a 24" display at 1920 wide but for my old eyes have scaling set at 150%. I've tweaked my Customize Toolbar to just the way I want it, with no extra spaces, But most of my Extension buttons are hidden under the jigsaw or down in the extensions menu. I don't want most of them out of sight but right on the toolbar(s).

Is there an about:config to force them to be visible? Maybe make the Address Bar double-deep? Maybe just add another empty toolbar to be populated with extension buttons? Or is there an Extension to do something about this?

There is much more to the following that I received from ChatGPT: The first place to seek answers is obviously with VeePN. I asked ChatGPT the following questions, and as a result, I also have some questions for Firefox. Where can I get answers? I do not like the Edge browser for several reasons. Firefox, as far as I am concerned, is the best browser for my use. Due to the fact I reside in Kaliningrad I must use a VPN to access sites I used to take for granted when I lived in the Czech Republic. This morning, as usual, I tried getting connected to VeePN in my Firefox browser. As usual, it does one of the following: 1) “Something went wrong at our end.” & “try to update” or “contact us for assistance.” 2) Continuously refuses to connect, leaving with the message: “Connection Error. Can’t fetch server config.” 3) Connects very soon after opening Firefox, perhaps 5% of the time I try connecting to VeePN. This morning, I spent many attempts over the course of 2+ hours, and no connection. Sometimes I had to refresh the VeePN extension due to the immediate, continuous, fast popups of “Connection Error. Can’t fetch server config.” Then suddenly, without rhyme or reason, VeePN connected. Also, this morning I decided to test using VeePN on my Edge browser, and it immediately connected, with no hesitation. This begs the question. Is there something about Firefox that may be causing the issue? I have not changed any settings anywhere regarding WiFi or Network & Internet Settings. In addition, sometimes, when I tire of trying to get VeePN to connect in Firefox after decades of connection attempts, I will use my Browsec VPN. I have learned not to use two VPNs simultaneously, one or the other, not both. Also, it is worth mentioning that VeePN is far superior to Browsec, but that is my opinion based on how they both perform after being connected for a good period of time. I can be connected via VeePN all day and have no issues. Browsec requires regular refreshing. Either VPN, however, is affected by the internet connection and the wireless connection between my router and the dongle that sits on my desktop near my PC. Yes — based on what you described, this strongly suggests the problem is more related to Firefox itself (or the Firefox extension environment) than to your internet connection or VeePN service overall. I have added an image of all the Firefox Extensions I use, obviously, some in the list are turned off. I would like to add the information that ChatGPT provided, it is in a Word doc that can be uploaded to help if needed.

hello dear Please can you review my addons (extensions) for three days to activate my eyes, but no epidemics
