I want to use the search field for search and the adressbar to enter adresses. Unfortunately it doesn't let me enter adresses, they all get routed to a search provide (google) and I can't acees my router

How can I dsable the search in the adressbar?

Setting browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.improvesearch.handoffToAwesomebar (are you kidding me?) to flase does not help

Unbelievable - ANOTHER update and FIVE MONTHS ON and we still have this total nonsense of not being able to reduce the Message List Pane to less than ten messages. As a result, the message you are trying to view is sqeezed into less than half your screen, if there are pictures in the message it's totally useless - you can't see them properly.

Two months ago, somebody posted that they had a solution - then, NOTHING several 'updates' on.

I've been in touch directly with Wayne Mery, and he said the 'solution' had thrown up another problem. How can that be? You always used to be able to reduce the list to two or three lines. Why not just put the code back as it was?

Am I missing something? Is this some sort of conspiracy to force us to use the vertical format? I don't like the vertical look - I want horizontal!!

Loads of people have complained about this . . . .

I would like the address bar to show what it would show when you type a "?" just by clicking. It's a default feature in chrome, I know, mentioning a competitive browser as an example is kind of a no no, but it's the only example I can think of.

I used to like Thunderbird, a lot. I've used it for more than 13 years. I have also contributed money - because I believe in paying for a good product. I think Thunderbird is quickly moving away from being a 'good product'.

I have two big complaints now with Thunderbird.

1. Apparently the 'developers' just can't stop themselves from adding more and more "stuff" (called "features"). All I want is a decent email client. The tabs to open PDF attachments was a nice feature, when it was added. However, the vast majority of so-called "features" that have been added over the past few years are useless to me. And it shows in how big the Thunderbird application has become and how long it now takes to load and display.

2. The 'threaded' crap is driving me nuts. It seems like every time Thunderbird updates it puts some/most/all of the folders back to 'sort by threaded' and displaying the thread column and star column. I hate 'threaded'. If you are updating the application why can't you import my 'custom' settings or at least just leave them alone. No, you reset all kinds of stuff with nearly every "update".

I guess I have two options: 1. I will quit updating Thunderbird (disable auto-update, if that's possible). 2. Find a new email client that is simpler, smaller, loads quicker, and is less cluttered with "features".

Thank you for taking a decent product and 'improving' the hell out of it - to the point where I am starting to hate it.

If you add from & correspondent you get the same results. Shouldn't from show the second line with the actual email address? If not can this be done another way? Using version Version 115.9.0 if that makes a difference

I'm running firefox 124.0.2 on Linux Mint and am having the most bizarre issue. I've got a logitech M560 mouse, and when I press the mouse button for Forward it functions normally. However when I press the mouse button for Back, Firefox ignores it.

I've already confirmed that the OS is registering the button click as 'Back' using Input-Remapper, and the extra mouse buttons are enabled in the Firefox configuration. I've also used the mouse on another PC with no issues so this one is kind of boggling the mind.

(Feature) Can we have option to open bookmark manager (chrome://bookmarks/) and history manager (chrome://history/) in new tab rather than in window for Gecko Firefox browser like chrome or chromium browsers in 2024?

I use chrome mostly and for years I have used bookmark manager (chrome://bookmarks/) and history manager (chrome://history/) in new tab and pinned for easy access. The concept of new window is not only inconvenience but also anti-user since I have to use chromium browser (using cococ browser (https://coccoc.com/en, alongside to manage bookmarks and history due to firefox shortcomings). Even edge has option to choose how to open history and bookmark manager in new tab.

I cannot find an option to choose how to open the bookmark manager (chrome://bookmarks/) and history manager (chrome://history/) new tab rather than window otherwise it would have worked. Plus no flags in about:config like chrome adds new features and options via chrome flags.

Is firefox usable for an average user jumping from chrome and chrome using habits in 2024?

I am trying to download the original version of an image, not the re-compressed webp version (Yes, I know some websites only have a webp format image, but I am specifically talking about sites where I can flat out see .jpg or .png in the URL but it's forcing a recompressed webp version on me instead, reddit itself is one of those sites that does this, I cam flat out see the url ending in .jpg or .png, and then a lot of other gibberish after which if I make any changes to breaks the image, and if I leave as-is forces a webp version. Wikia sites are another that do this.). A lot of what I Google on how to do this is not relevant anymore, telling me to modify a setting that no longer exists, add a variable to the URL that no longer works, or install a plugin that does not seem to work anymore and might be a security risk.

The one thing that seems to work is going to the image.http.accept setting and putting in "*/*". Problem is, I have no idea what exactly this is doing, and it looks like to me that I am somehow telling it just allow everything, which worries me if it can be a security risk or something. Can someone help me understand what exactly I am doing when I modify this setting like this and if it's a security risk to do so?

Is Firefox relay free? It says so here, Activate Firefox Relay - Mask your email address

I decided to try it out. I was exploring it, seeing if I could create a mask with a chosen name, and now it says I used up all my free masks.

Since that's the case,. can I still choose the one of those I unwittingly created? Maybe there should be some kind of disclaimer?

When I upgraded my Firefox, in Mac iOS, the pocket add-on is not on the new tab page. I’ve tried about. Dot config and have not found a way to restore pocket on the new tab page.

Dear support,

I installed recently Thunderbird 115.5.0 (64-bit) on my laptop running Debian 12.

I have a problem with the font size settings in the message view.

By default, the font size is very small. I can increase it by tuning in the top Menu. Tuning the Font size to 26 pt I get a readible text, see Picture 1. When I move to the next message, the font size becomes small again. Picture 2 shows when I moved and came back to the same message. The menu is shown, and the Font Size appears to be 26 pt in both screen shots.

I have set layout.css.devPixelsPerPx to -1

I have a userChrome.css, but it does not fix the font size in the message view. I wish I could know how to do that!

Thank you in advance for your help! Eric CM

I have Outlook for business, and used to be able to use TBird for personal on Windows 10. When I changed computers (Win11 now, and Office 2023) and installed TBird, (and yes, UNchecked the "make default) on set up), TBird steals my default. This is when I am trying to email a pdf or spreadsheet, etc. where I click the email button and it generates an email with the file name as the subject. Rather than using my default Outlook (business account, mind you), the file opens in TBird. I've gone through every default in Windows, and cannot seem to locate a means of changing it in the INSTALLED version of TBird. I've uninstalled, and reinstalled multiple times ... all with the same results. Can anyone give me some insight, please? Teri HendersoTL@gmail.com

Thunderbird 115's default UI is horrible in many ways. It would be extremely useful if the methods required to return it to how it was were assembled in one place, not just in dozens of individual questions.

What I want is a comprehensive list in one place. (If this new release had been done properly, there would be options to turn all these bad changes off and definitely no CSS should be required, but I gather it will be.) For a start:

• how to get the title bar back
• how to get rid of the ugly grey blobs behind the message counts
• how to get the grey background back in the mailbox pane
• how to get rid of the ugly, intrusive "CTRL + K" from the search boxes
• how to edit the tool bar to make the ugly search box go away altogether
• how to made the new message count less intrusive, preferably by putting it back the way it was (just bracketed, not in a bright blue circle)

Yes, we can search the internet for all these and many more, wasting hours of our time, but it would be much simpler if it was all in one place. Even better if it can be scripted.

Pin "Favourite Folders" to the top of the folder list so when scrolling that pane for other folders, favourites will always be visible.

I don't know if there's any more I can say about it, just would be nice to be able to have "Favourite Folders" always visible when scrolling through the folder pane.

Is there some way to enable and disable specific config settings , on a per-site basis?

For example, let's say I want to disable right-click hijacking (dom.event.contextmenu.enabled) on turtlesaregreat.com, but use the default settings everywhere else.

The Page Info > Permissions panel has some, but not all the ones I want. Is this somehow built into Firefox, or maybe there's an extension?

Thanks.

FF120 on Sonoma

Hello,

In Windows 10 and 11, Firefox's tab bar and other elements that may be transparent render in Windows 10 using some sort of uDWM method (speculation, I could be wrong?) rather than the traditional win32 window frame as you can see with the title bar toggled on. This leads to elements like the tab bar being black or white, depending on your theme unless you have specified otherwise in your chrome. Highlighted yellow below is my problem area.

In my CSS code, I am trying to extend the system color to be drawn to the tab bar (and in this instance, the address bar as well,) but I can't find any way to be able to do this. I have found forums that say to add -moz:appearance -moz-windows-glass, but this completely removes the window border and leaves the Firefox window unresponsive to controls. The only way to close it is if you close it through the taskbar or task manager.

Note that I am aware of .titlebar-color{color: AccentColorText; background-color: AccentColor}, but that's not what I am going for here. That still draws using Windows 10 modern UI. Windows 7 on ESR 115 or unofficially on 116 still draw with Windows Aero in all parts of this CSS code that are black (highligted yellow below.)

I can attach my CSS code if need be.

Thanks for any help!
