Firefox Community Forum

Since v.145, comments have been blocked on some forums for me. https://thetyee.ca is one I use regularly, and the comments are blocked. (This is a Coral Comment site.) The spinning wheel just spins (see image 2 below) and sometimes resolves as "blocked" (see image 1 below).

On rare occasions if I delete all cookies, restart the PC and the browser in a private window only, I can sometimes get comments to come up with a "login page" that successfully lets me login, and keeps the link open for a few pages for that session only, but when I open a new session, comments are blocked again. They just don't appear. when I am successful, it looks like image 3 below.

I never adjust settings, and only occasionally delete cookies, so I've looked into other help articles in the forum that have pointed out enhanced tracker protection might be a problem: I have whitelisted all the sites I use for ETP but only one or two now sometimes work properly (using disqus) while the others do not. Tyee support is unable to help - they say very few have made any complaints.

There are other sites that limit my access or functionality now because they say "You have an ad blocker installed". I don't have an adblocker installed. I've never installed an adblocker. But that's secondary. Perhaps if we get this issue solved (due to a setting?), that second issue will go away too. Or maybe not.

I see it's simply not possible to get rid of ETP. Do I have to get rid of Firefox?

Hi community The option to set, how many rows of shortcuts should be visible on the Firefox start screen, is a good idea. E.g. I set 3 rows and fill them with relevant shortcuts. The shortcuts in the bottom row always changes when I visit several websites. My understanding is: Setting the shortcuts as necessary and that's it! Wtf happens, that the last row changes all the time, that makes me fussy. regards wolf

Hello,

I have today encountered a reproducible issue with Firefox 145.0.2 (64-bit) on my system (CachyOS Linux). Whenever I press the "Print" button in the printing dialog for a PDF file, the browser freezes and no longer reacts to anything. I had to kill the process manually and try again. I have then downloaded the PDF and opened a different application to print it - that worked fine. Is this a known issue with Firefox? Does anyone have an idea how to fix this?

I already tried resetting the printer settings in the browser, but that did not change anything.

Thanks, Stefan

I have many website icons from closed tabs at the top of the page that are crowding out my open tabs. I don't know why they keep appearing and I can't get rid of them. I've tried everything I can think of. I'm on an iMac, Sequoia 15.6.1

Hi, I'm running Firefox 145 on a MacBook Air, with MacOS 12.7.6 (Monterey). When I try to add a bookmark to an existing folder on the Bookmarks Toolbar, it will not show up. It does show up if I go to the hamburger menu, and then Bookmarks/Recent Bookmarks, but not from the Toolbar. This is true for any folder on the Toolbar. I do not have this problem with Firefox 145 on Linux Mint Cinnamon. Is this a bug or a feature? Please advise, and thanks.

For the last two to three weeks The Firefox updates have changed the way bookmark data is retained. Firefox will allow bookmarks to be added and retained on the tool bar for any sessions - until firefox is restarted and then the bookmarks no longer work.

If I go to the profile folder, exit firefox then copy and paste the folder to a backup location. The attempted backup fails. Something about permissions as I recall. I have tried many things unsuccessfully. Something has changed that does not allow for the backup of profile folders. Adding a backup option to the profile manager would be nice. I noticed some people have found work-arounds but I need a straight-forward procedure for backing up my folders. No work-arounds please, just a simple procedure. May I ask for help with this issue?

In the standart view of a video, the feature works, but not in fullscreen. In Chrome it also works in fullscreen. Firefox should have support for it since v126 or so, im on v145

For MONTHS now I have been UNABLE TO LOG INTO MY DAM BANK! Every time I try to log in I get BOOTED TO THE "SECURE SIGN UP" PAGE & i AM SICK TO DEATH OF SEEING THAT DAM PAGE! I've gone through my settings, I can find anything that would prevent me from logging in, Another problem is that I'm going BLIND I have a lot of trouble seeing the page or reading what's on it. Trying to fill in a check, an envelope or anything else that reqires me to write is almost impossible now. WHere can I find the responce to my qestions, I have been unable to find where it's HIDING.

my interenet provider server is in a differnt state to where i live and my mozilla firefox detects my location to where my server is located and NOT where I am physically located

how can i force the active tab to show? i am fairly sure this feature was in a previous edition. I have a large number of tabs and sometimes an app or video will start and i am forced to go back and forth thru all the tabs just so i can stop them.

Hello;

When Firefox is updating itself, it can create different profiles and so lose all bookmarks, passwords, logins and everything . And I have to start doing many things again, but can't return the pins I have kept or open tabs in other windows , and this cause me a lot already

I have 2 questions that I want answers for : 1 - Why you give a solution for this matter on your site ( https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/recover-user-data-missing-after-firefox-update ) , and not solving this matter in the first place?

2- Are you going to fix this matter and when ?

Thank you.

Just updated to FF 145.0.2 //on a Mac Os 14.7.7 yesterday

I *always* use private pgs for shopping then when I find what I want I go to a regular page to make my purchases then delete the cookies immediately afterwards.

Apparently now we can't block location settings ?? or a Do Not Track?? I opened a new Private browser window for a website that apparently immediately asks for your location and lo and behold there I am(!!) Shocked to say the least especially since sometimes in the past even when I tried to use my location for whatever reason it wasn't showing up precisely but in an area over 100 sq miles. So what's up? For many reasons I won't go into here I really REALLY don't want my location to be available.

Good news 1: I'm trying to move away from Safari towards Firefox :-) Good news 2: there are loads of KB shortcuts in Firefox :-)

Bad news: after using Safari for > 15 years I'm confused and make a lot of mistakes in using shortcuts :-(

Suggestion: although there is a webpage explaining clearly all shortcuts, it would be handy to provide a downloadable PDF document with an (compact) overview of shortcuts. A 2-page document to be printed recto/verso would be extremely usefull to have at hand.

Thanks for considering this RFC! Luc
