I cannot install the Keeper extension for firefox on version 113.0.1. I get an error "Download failed. check your connection". I have successfully installed the extension on other browsers on the same desktop computer, and on Firefox earlier versions on other computers at home.

I use the userChrome.css file to take the search bar from the bottom of the screen and have it float. Here's the instruction that I use ... .browserContainer > findbar {-moz-box-ordinal-group: 0; position: fixed !important; }. Firefox 107 has made that .css instruction non-executable. If I text out the instruction I now get the search box at the bottom of the screen. I want it back to a floating search box. Is there a fix in 107 so I can use my .css file or is there another way to get the search box floating. Regards

I am trying to have Firefox show an "X" on every tab as soon as I hover above it. I followed a certain article and implemented this code:

/* Show Tab Close buttons only when hovered */

1. tabbrowser-tabs > .tabbrowser-tab:not([pinned="true"]) > .tab-stack > .tab-content > .tab-close-button {

 visibility: collapse !important;
 opacity: 0 !important;
 transition: all 250ms ease-in-out !important;

}

1. tabbrowser-tabs > .tabbrowser-tab:not([pinned="true"]):hover > .tab-stack > .tab-content > .tab-close-button {

 visibility: visible !important;
 opacity: 1 !important;
 transition: all 250ms ease-in-out !important;;

}

1. tabbrowser-tabs > .tabbrowser-tab:not([pinned="true"]) > .tab-stack > .tab-content > .tab-close-button {

 display: -moz-box !important;

}

This code is however not being implemented no matter how many times I restart Firefox. 'toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets' is set to True The location is userChrome.css is '/home/user1/.mozilla/firefox/yqomjsh9.default-release-1672744596809/chrome/userChrome.css'

What could be the issue? I tried adding executable permissions using "chmod" but that did not change anything.

I have AdBLockPlus (free version) installed and have not had any issues until today. Firefox did some updates and now the Add-In is no longer working. I have checked that it is specifically turned on for the websites I'm visiting and I've tried turning it off and back on to no avail.

Hello,

I am wondering why userChrome.css is not loading. toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets is set to true (about:config). I loaded userChrome.css opening the Profile Folder in about:support and dragging and dropping a "chrome" folder that contains userChrome.css respecting case sensitivity and file types. So the file now is under C:\Users\marce\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\sv6gplmb.default-release-1681224431322\chrome. The css is simple, it is valid and it works in the Style Editor:

.search-wrapper .search-handoff-button, .search-wrapper input {

 background: var(--newtab-background-color-secondary) var(--newtab-search-icon) 16px center no-repeat;
 background-size: 24px;
 padding-inline-start: 52px;
 padding-inline-end: 10px;
 padding-block: 0;
 width: 100%;
 box-shadow: 12px 12px 6px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.32);
 border: 1px solid transparent;
 border-radius: 8px;
 color: var(--newtab-text-primary-color);
 -moz-context-properties: fill;
 fill: var(--newtab-text-secondary-color);

}

.top-site-outer .tile {

 border-radius: 8px;
 box-shadow: 12px 12px 6px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.32);
 background-color: var(--newtab-background-color-secondary);
 justify-content: center;
 margin: 0 auto;
 height: 80px;
 width: 80px;
 cursor: pointer;
 position: relative;
 align-items: center;
 color: var(--newtab-text-secondary-color);
 display: flex;
 font-size: 32px;
 font-weight: 200;
 text-transform: uppercase;

}

.ds-card-grid.ds-card-grid-border .ds-card:not(.placeholder) {

 border-radius: 8px;
 box-shadow: 12px 12px 6px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.32);

}

.card-outer .card {

 border-radius: 8px;
 box-shadow: 12px 12px 6px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.32);
 height: 100%;

}

However, userChrome.css does show up on the left column in the style editor. Very odd. I restarted the browser of course.

Is this no longer supported? I am using Firefox (regular edition, not dev or nightly) and Windows 11.

Hope someone can help! Thanks in advance

I have a premium Pocket account. I have pocket set to display suggested articles on the Firefox 'home page'. Out of the blue several weeks ago I clicked on 'more' to save an article to pocket and the pocket choices did not include 'save to pocket.' The choices given are: bookmark, open in a new window, open in a new private window, dismiss. Also when I move the cursor to 'more' a pinterest 'save' appears beside 'more'. I used to have the pinterest 'save' extension but I deleted it.

How do I get rid of the pinterest save and how can I get the correct 'more' choices, i.e. save to pocket back?

I've done everything I know to do and nothing has worked. At present I am right clicking on the articles I would have saved to pocket (each article to a new tab) and then I use the One Tab extension to save them in a group. I have attached a screenshot.

Thank you in advance for any help you can give me.

When watching videos on streaming services (e.g. Netflix) a "1.0" is placed in the center of the screen. How do I get rid of it? (I don't want it ANYWHERE on my screen.) Thank you for your help.

I'm using Firefox 112 on Windows 10. The toolbar contains icons for several extensions that I don't want to see. I click on the >> menu and then Customize Toolbar. That opens the Overflow Menu. It says, "Drag and drop items here to keep them within reach but out of your toolbar." I try to drag one of those extension icons onto the Overflow Menu. It won't go. The dragged icon picks up a circle with a line through it, indicating that this is not allowed or not working.

How can I use the Overflow Menu as advertised, to remove unwanted extension icons from the toolbar? Or is there a good workaround?

Hello How to remove extension symbol from toolbar? ^(see image): https://i.imgur.com/2bh8se5.png Any idea? Thanks

I want to re-order the add-ons / extensions in the toolbar shared with the search bar. Customize toolbar only has functions/icons related to the operation of Firefox. I want to customize the extensions toolbar, but how?

In the add-ons page, I can remove, disable, or enable extensions, but I cannot change the order of them.

As an example, there is an add-on for my Firefox account that is leftmost in the bar of extension icons. I would like to move it all the way to the right. Again, how would I do that?

Thanks for your help.

I can't get Firefox to use some custom cursors. Firefox is only recognizing the cursors that came installed with Ubuntu. Any of the cursors I installed will default to DMZ-White, but Firefox is using those cursors that came installed with Ubuntu. I tried defining the default cursor in /usr/share/icons/default/index.theme but did nothing as well. Also I tried with the cursor in /usr/share/icons and in /home/name/.icons and firefox cannot get in any of those.

I don't know if it's something wrong with my cursors or it's some inner thing with Firefox, any one has a guess? Incompatibility or something missing from the cursor?

When I search directly from the address bar, the search always defaults to google.com/....whatever I am searching for. But even though my region is set to United Kingdom, my search results are definitely not the same as if I were to navigate to www.google.co.uk and then search for the same string. Is there any way for the default google search to use google.co.uk rather than google.com Thanks?

I'm currently running Firefox v 112.0.2 on Linux. I've had a theme installed for a while now that I really enjoy. It's a minimalist theme I found on github and then I topped it off with some colors that suite my desktop theme.

The ONLY issue I am having is with the dropdown menus. I can't see any of the list items and I cannot for the life of me figure out where to modify these colors. Searching has only gotten me more confused.

Photo is attached. I'm hoping that changing the text color here is an easy fix. The colors are all fine in other dropdown-ish menus, like bookmark folders for example.

Thanks in advance for any advice.

I completely removed a program from my computer several days ago. The program name still shows in Firefox, settings, general, applications. The program is showing in the applications section in content type and then action shows to the right of the content type. How do I completely remove the program name that is still showing in Firefox, Settings, General, Applications? If I need to go to the registry could you please tell me how to locate it in the registry? Thank you

Hi, I made a theme but have since not used it and swapped to another. Everytime I open the browser, it swaps back to the one I made for some reason. Under themes, it will still say the one that is showing is the chosen theme, but it most certainly is the one I made. I turn on another theme and toggle back to the chosen theme and it then changes correctly. Any idea why that could be?

Hello everyone, I wrote an add-on for my own personal use. I don't intend to publish it. So naturally, it isn't verified, but I trust it. I am able to install the add-on as a temporary add-on under about:debugging, and it works as intended. The manifest file contains "browser_specific_settings": {

       "gecko": {
           "id": "example@example.com"
       }

} I would now like to install the add-on permanently. So I packaged it as a zip file. The zip file contains the files directly without a parent folder. Under about:config I set xpinstall.signatures.required, xpinstall.whitelist.required and extensions.langpacks.signatures.required to false. Then I went to about:addons clicked on install add-on from file and selected the zip file. I got the error message: "This addon could not be installed because it has not been verified". I am using Firefox for archlinux, version 112.0.

What am I missing? How can I install this addon?

I apprechiate your answers.

Firefox 112.0 running on Windows 10 64-bit laptop with a small (pixel geometry) display screen has unnecessarily large padding (white space) around each bookmark as I navigate bookmarks on the bookmark bar.

I believe this was a change instituted around version 89 (in a nutshell, I could see more - twice as many? - bookmarks listed within a bookmark folder with version 88/before. The vertical whitespace between bookmarks within a folder is excessive and makes it much more necessary to scroll within a (long) list of bookmarks in a folder when looking for one.

There was a procedure posted in the discussion below on how to set and enable "compact density".

Bookmark Padding in New Firefox Versions 2 https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1369996

The procedure below was attempted - browser.compactmode.show enabled, browser restarted, however, I cannot fin "Customize Toolbar" and "compact".

"go to - about:config search - "browser.compactmode.show" - change to TRUE , then close that window go to - Customize Toolbar at the bottom of that page, there a box called Density. Click that, you'll see "compact (not supported)" Apparently, it IS supported because I chose that. (it looked like it ignored my choice) After I closed Customize Toolbar, the bookmarks were compact spaced again. Exactly how I need them."

Is this fixable/solvable?
