This is a little embarassing to admit, but my firefox suggest keeps suggesting me spankbang.com when i type sp, I noticed this when i was trying to search spanish on the search bar.

When I follow the suggestion to it's full autocomplete it leads to a video I watched a long time ago but have since cleared from my history. I tried long pressing spankbang to remove it from suggest but I don't really know how to remove this. I did include a screenshot, but the attached troubleshoot data is from my computer not my phone. I'm not sure how to include that.

Please help me, I have a date and I don't want to accidentally have that autocomplete.

Sincerely, Firefox Android User.

I never installed Britannica and I don't want it to appear - I want to remove Britannica from my system altogether. But I don't have a Britannica app in my Settings list of apps and I never intstalled it. It's like a virus. Can anybody help me to get rid of it?

Before upgrading to Firefox 140, I would always quickly switch between my default DuckDuckGo and alternative search options, like Wikipedia, using the up and down arrows. I would just type the search term in the address bar and then tap the down key a couple of times before pressing enter if I wanted to use a different search engine.

The new address bar no longer seems to offer this option. I see I can still select alternative search engines using the mouse, but pressing the down key no longer lets me select them.

Is it possible to re-enable this way of quickly switching between search engines using the keyboard?

Hi all, I'm using Firefox 140.0.4 (64-bit) on Debian Trixie and I'm getting a weird behavior with the auto-complete functionality of the address bar.

If I type the first character the address gets auto filled (see 20250711_First-character-auto-fill-working.png attachment), then if I type the second character the auto filled result disappears (see 20250711_Second-character-auto-fill-NOT-working.png).

I've tried any search option combination, but results doesn't change. At the moment I'm using for the address bar just "Browsing history" (see 20250711_Address-bar-settings.png).

The correct behavior would be, as in the past, that new characters confirming the address would leave things as they are. Do you have any suggestion on how to restore the original behavior?

Many thanks,

Raoul

Now, somebody at Mozilla decided to add Google trending searches to our non-Google searches. Since I want nothing to do with Google other than (grudgingly) having an email account, is there a way to remove all those trending searches in one swoop? I removed the initial bunch, then went back later, and there were more. TIA.

I want Google to return 100 search items in Firefox. All the descriptions of how to do this mean you have to do the search, then go to the end of the address bar and add &num=100 and enter.

This is very tedious so I set up a special bookmark which did it. So I'd do the search, then click the bookmark on the bookmark toolbar and it would expand the hits to 100. However, I've lost the bookmark and I can't remember how I did it.

When adding a bookmark to the toolbar you need to specify the URL. In this case the URL will be the generated address from the search, ie. the current URL each time. How can I specify the curent URL when it is a dynamic address? It needs to start with "http" in order for it to be in the right format to save.

Dear Community,

the userChrome.css I used to use to disable the search bar expansion on focus no longer works (http://userchrome.wesleybranton.com/megabar). I disabled all urlbar.search options in about:config. But Firefox still gives me suggestions when I start typing about (as in about:config).

toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets is set to true. The userChrome.css is inside the chrome folder inside the profile directory. I'm on 140.3.1esr (64-bit).

How do I disable this for good?

Thanks in advance!

Whenever I type in "photo", Firefox has always autocompleted to photos.google.com. Today it's started autocompleting to photoquotes.com instead; a site I never use, and I don't know why Firefox is suggesting it.

I have followed SEVERAL guides for how to remove sites from autocomplete suggestions, and all of them give wrong advice.

I have gone to History/Manage History and 'Forget about this site'. That does not remove the site from autocomplete.

I have tried 'Hover over the entry to select it, then click delete'. This does not work. It only deletes the last character entered in the address bar.

I have tried 'Select the three-dot menu beside the suggestion and select Remove from history'. That is Not Possible with the top result in autocomplete, which appears above Firefox suggestions.

Could someone please tell me the CORRECT answer on how to remove specific websites from being suggested in autocomplete!?

Usually, when I start typing the address of a website I visit frequently, Firefox will suggest the complete address. Now, for the last week or so, it doesn't. For example, if I start typing guardian.com, the default is to search, and then only when I type the final "m" does it switch to "visit" when I press enter.

In settings, under Search, and Address bar, the box to suggest browsing history is checked, and at about:config, browser.urlbar.autofill is set to true.

I have Firefox version 141.0.3
