Firefox Support Forum

Steps to Reproduce: 1) Install Multi-Account Containers add-on 2) Create several different containers 3) Open tabs in each of the different containers 4) Restart Firefox by going to about:profiles and clicking "Restart normally"

Observed behavior: Tabs are not restored to any container upon restart.

Expected behavior: Tabs are restored to the containers with which they were opened.

Other remarks: This poses a security and privacy risk, as information leakage occurs when previously segregated websites are loaded outside of their containers all at once.

I am unable to use the Firefox feature to store a saved credit card. When I attempt to do so I enter all the CC details accordingly, but clicking the "save" button results in no action taken. The cc modal just sits there and nothing happens no matter how many times you click save. Please advise.

I have alerts.useSystemBackend set to true, so that notifications received by tabs that send notifications are displayed as system notifications instead, so they won't disappear after a while and instead are displayed in the notification center. Is there a way to not show the content of the notification, maybe even hide the source website? https://assets-prod.sumo.prod.webservices.mozgcp.net/media/uploads/images/2023-02-07-01-02-18-973853.png Firefox Beta 110.0 Windows 10 21H2 Build 19044.2486

Thank you!

I am often switching office and change my system default printer always first when I am in a new place. I learned from the community here that the right thing to do for having Firefox/Thunderbird follow this choice is set print_printer to 'default'. The problem is that this does only work for a while. As soon as I use the selection dropdown in the printing dialog (e.g. to exceptionally select the PDF printer) it will overwrite 'default' by that printer. The consequence is that from that time on I have to manually select the printer or got to the config editor again to set 'default'. Is there any simple solution I overlooked?

If not can you tell me how I can make a feature request? A simple solution would be to include something like 'System Default' in the dropdown list in the printing dialog. Although for my taste, it would be better to have the selection in the printer dialog only temporary and return to the previous printer selection for the next printing.

I am unable to see some icons of extensions installed in my browser. For example clean web is installed, it is seen among installed extensions but its icon is not seen anywhere in extension icons in menu bar or in total icons.

Hi Guys Here is my problem: When I click on this button, the address will not open. This happens also when click on links to activate them to open an internet page. I do not know whether this is configured somewhere in my browser Mozilla or my computer protection McAfee program or eventually somewhere else. Have I blocked something in some program? Thank you for your help

hello, thanks, mozilla vpn + firefox multi-account containers is very powerful.

i want to be able to open a new tab and force/lock it to use a specific container, no matter what website is opened.

for example, let's day i have firefox configured that: whenever i open 'website.com', it opens in a container named 'website' nothing surprising there.

now i open a new blank tab in a container called 'secret'

here is the behavior, current and desired current: in that tab, if i try to goto 'website.com', the tab's container will change from 'secret' to 'website' desired: in that tab, if i try to goto 'website.com', the tab's container will NOT change to 'website', the container will remain 'secret

i hope that makes sense,

Three settings available: Light, Dark, Automatic. Automatic is not following my system display settings for "Night Shift", which is set to "Sunset to Sunrise". All Automatic mode does is lock Google.com into dark mode. I have to set it to "Light" to see google.com normally.

I am using firefox version 64 for bulk print from one of the application. it is the only version which is supporting to take bulk print from the application. i have removed the auto updation . eve though the firefox is getting updated after restarted the system or after shutdown. please help me to fix the issue

As someone that uses the command line terminal a lot, I constantly find myself pressing the "tab" button on my keyboard when typing a URL in the address bar to accept the current suggestion and move to the next segment. For example:

1. I want to go to www.example.com/segment1/segment2
2. I'll start typing "exa" and since I visit this site a lot, Firefox helpfully completes example.com
3. I would like to press "tab" on my keyboard to have Firefox complete example.com/ then I can type "seg" and Firefox could complete it to "example.com/segment1

I know I can do this by pressing the right arrow key, but that requires me to lift my right hand off to press it. I would like to be able to easily do this with the "tab" key which my pinky can quickly press. Pressing "tab" currently, has Firefox pick some complete url which I don't want, i.e. www.example.com/segmentA/segmentB

On my old computer, I used to be able to close Firefox and it would remember all of the tabs I have open. I can't find where to set that as my option, though, on my new computer.

Hello,

I need your help: how can I set navigation bar without any item (hide all items of this bar)? I need that this bar appears but empty. The reason is that I want to restrict options in Firefox (for all users) but let it be allowed open windows pop-up.

I got remove the menu button that is to the right of the whole (hamburger type), the forward and backward buttons that are to the left of the whole (which are the arrows to the right and to the left), the detention (which is the cross), etc. I did this with commands in userChrome.css file

But what I can't hide is the item where the url's are placed (search box). I just need to hide the search box. I wrote " #nav-bar { visibility: collapse !important ; } " in userChrome.css , and then all navigation bar is hidden but don't get windows of pop-up that I need them to appear.

The version of Firefox that I have is 108.0.1 (64 bits).

Could you help me, please? It's a little urgent. Thanks!!

Heyo,

I got a problem with saving extensions settings.

The error is: QuotaExceededError: storage.sync API call exceeded its quota limitations. How do I fix it?

Hi,

I recently developed a Firefox browser extension using Manifest V3, it's to show coupons & offers on 1000s of online shopping website.

To function properly, the extension needs to have permission for 'Access your data for all websites' ( <all_urls> permission)

During installation, permission prompt does show up, but it doesn't ask permission for 'Access your data for all websites' but ask for other permission.

I have specified this permission in the permissions key in my manifest file. However, when I try to install the extension, It asks for other permission, but not <all_urls> permission: Screenshot at https://i.imgur.com/UiG5Dve.png

After installation, it start working properly only if user has manually granted permission from extension settings https://i.imgur.com/4QWOLOC.png Most users would not know this and may uninstall the extension if permission is not granted prior.

Please suggest the fix.

Here is how my Manifest V3 permission code look like https://i.imgur.com/JmMM3l2.png

I am using Firefox latest version and I have checked with/without any other extensions or add-ons that may be impacting the installation process.

I would greatly appreciate any help or guidance in resolving this issue. I believe the permission prompt is crucial for my extension to function properly and I would like to get it working as soon as possible.

Thank you for your time and assistance.

Best regards,

Krishna

Some sites offer separate links for viewing and downloading. (I'm specifically interested in PDF files, but I think this question is more general.) I'm not sure how this distinction is communicated to Firefox—I'm guessing in the MIME type? But regardless of the mechanism, Firefox does not seem to offer any obvious settings that distinguish between the two cases. Are there ways to distinguish in less obvious places, such as about:config?

As a specific example: currently on a certain site when I click "View" the PDF is displayed in Firefox, and when I click "Download" the PDF is both placed in my Downloads folder and displayed in Firefox. I would prefer that the "Download" link only cause the download, and not cause the display. How can I change this without breaking the "View" links?

I have tried all the methods the internet suggests. but nothing works. I still have the red dotted outlines on everything. Any thoughts?

These are the instructions Type about:config in the address bar and press Return. A warning page may appear. Click Accept the Risk and Continue to go to the about:config page. In the about:config page, search for the preference accessibility.force_disabled. Observe the Value column of the accessibility.force_disabled row.

       If it is set to 1 then do nothing.
       If it is set to 0, double-click on it to open an editing field, type 1, then click the blue check mark button or press the Enter key to complete the update.
