Forum zhromadźenstwa Firefox

I use the setting brower.search.widget.new = false to customize my search bar. Since the latest update of Firefox (Firefox 154), I noticed that spacing between search results is larger and I don't like it as much. I am hoping to revert to the previous version where the spacing is more tight and easier to navigate. The first pic is Firefox 154 and the second is a previous version (147).

I have two installations of Firefox on a desktop and a laptop. The first installation is pinned to the Windows toolbar and the 2nd installation has a shortcut pinned to Windows Start.

When I saw that the latest update of Firefox to 154 allowed changing icons, I changed the 2nd installation to a different Firefox icon (mini-fox with black background) so it was easy to see which installation to use when both were open.

The problem is the changed icon for the shortcut is wrong after shutting down the computers. I do not recall having this problem with the 1st installation or on my 2nd laptop where I only have one installation of Firefox.

I suspect this is just a glitch that will likely be fixed in a future update, but it is annoying to have to go through the process of changing the icon every time I startup a computer. If anyone has found a solution for this, I would very much appreciate your help.

The autocomplete dropdowns for form fields have recently changed appearance, and I strongly prefer the previous, simple design.

The new version has:

• Clock icons next to autocomplete/history entries
• Much more vertical padding, making the list unnecessarily large
• Rounded "pill-shaped" highlighting when hovering over an entry

The previous autocomplete list was much more compact and clean, without the clock icons, excessive padding or rounded hover backgrounds.

Is there currently a setting, `about:config` preference or other supported way to restore the old autocomplete list appearance?

Ideally, I would like to use the previous style:

• No clock icons
• Compact rows with the previous amount of padding
• No rounded/pill-shaped hover effect
• Otherwise retain the existing autocomplete functionality

If there is no setting to restore the old appearance, could an option be added to allow users to choose between the old and new autocomplete UI?

When entering the "customize Firefox" page, the option to enable or disable the title bar is missing. From looking at pass guides it used to be on the bottom left of the page but now it's gone. In case it matters, I am not in fullscreen mode.

For some scrollables, v153 doesn't respect the Mac OS setting to hide scrollbars unless scrolling on page load. If that OS setting is adjusted after the page is loaded, then the page respects it again until refresh, so there's apparently some sort of race condition going on where it's not reading the setting in time before the page loads?

This is not a problem in v152. I downgraded back to v152 and it's working again.

As of 20 August 2026 Firefox update, my right-click menu is messed up. It USED to be black with white text; now it's unreadable gray with slightly darker gray text. Putting Firefox in "Dark Mode" brings that back, but makes everything ELSE completely unusable. I use the "default" setting under the Appearance Settings, and always have (as in really always, from the day Firefox was first available). I use "Orion Nebula Center" by Lightyear, and have done for years. Disabling it doesn't do anything as far as the right-click window. I've uploaded a screenie of the specific menu, in case my description isn't clear. I did try a Firefox "recommended" add-on called Stylebot, but it appears to work only on a specific element of a specific page, and not globally to correct the issue on any/all windows. How can I get the black background, white text version of the right-click menu back? Thanks!

I noticed that my Tab background color doesn't change after recent Firefox updates.

I have this code (css - chrome) to change the color of the active tab to green and it no longer working.

/* Start code: Change color of active tab to Green and the inactive to default*/ tab[selected="true"] *{ background-color: #00c100 !important; /*Green */ font-size:10pt !important; font-weight: 650 !important; color: black !important; }

Any help in fixing this is appreciated. Regards,

If I grab the vertical bar and drag it to the right, a gap appears between the sidebar and the web page. If I move it to the left, the web page covers the right side of the sidebar. In both cases the width of the sidebar does not change. I am on Windows 10 with Firefox Version 154.0.

I would be grateful for any help on this.

my tabs bar, containing several hundred tabs, in firefox has suddenly decided to disappear and i can't get it to show. same for the menu toolbar (the one w/ the open, save,...) never really know which toolbar i am looking for. using latest version of ff and windows 11 desktop tried to get info directly from mozilla, but is the only place that probably has the answer.

what ever happened to support for the browser? it was relatively easy to get to the support area but now it mostly shows self-advertising for firefox.

thanks in advance for any help on this matter!

When using Firefox and right-clicking is there a way to change the color and text of the pop up box? I do not want to change the theme I am using. The first picture is if I right click on the main screen of a website and the second is if I right click on the menu bar/toolbar. I simply want to change the color at the least of the first box into the second without going to a full dark theme or having the white backgrounds of web pages having to change to black. Thanks.

How to minimize the topmost bar in Firefox?

By "topmost bar", I mean the bar containing, from left to right:

- Any open tabs - "+" (Open a new tab) - Down arrowhead (like a "V") - Empty space - Minus sign - Sign for 2 pages - "X"

The height of this bar is 2 cm !!

Thanks
