Bitte geben Sie wieder das Add-on von Nuance Dragon NaturallySpeaking Professional frei. Wenn das Programm nicht in Firefox funktioniert kann/werde ich wohl oder übel zu Microsoft Edge wechseln müssen

I'm using Firefox 135.0 on a MacBook Pro with a large external monitor.

The menu bar at the top of the screen (NOT the Firefox window) has "Firefox, File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools, Windows, Help".

When I click on "History", it shows me the most recent 15 pages I visited. Always 15. I'd like to increase that number, as 15 is inconveniently few and uses less than half my screen height. However, I can't find a preference for it either under "Settings" or in "about:config".

I know that there are at least two ways to get to a more extensive history list, but they need more clicks.

So is there a way to change 15 into a larger number?

Thanks. Brendan.

I'm a user of a site where I have ended up with a lot of accounts. I use the container extension to make it so I can have each account logged in simultaneously. However, since I added the accounts in a random order, the list is in nothing approaching alphabetical order. There are so many now it makes it hard to find them; plus I have containers I use for other sites. The only way I can find to reorder them is to remove and remake the containers in alphabetical order. I think it would be useful to make it so in the settings page there was the ability to grab a handle on the left-hand side of the container listing and drag it to be where you want it in the list.

Hello, I would like to know how to add a plugin (in my case Google Translate) to the Sidebar, just like the screenshot attached. (I don't know how these plugins were added here of course, they just showed up in the sidebar)

Thank you!

Hello, would like tabs titles to be styled like in attachment (screen is from Simple Tab Groups addon). Especially would like to decrease (vertical) gaps between titles. Is it possible by editing userChrome.css or something like this?

Please place UK English as a language alternative.

Use a font which is more readable of older eyes.

When scrolling - make the choice box on the right scroll as well as the left

Hi there I've been using firefox for long time and I love that it utilizes gtk4 in gnome. To make it even more like other gnome apps I found I can remove the tab bar and combining everything in one bar. That way it looks like vanilla gnome application. But I don't like the extra clicks I have to do to get side bar or tab list open. I couldn't find any extension that will provide icons only tabs I can insert into the toolbar. So i can someone help A): implement the tab bar besides the url in the toolbar or the other way around the url besides the tab bar? B): display all opened tabs in a page that I can set for a new tab page? (this sounds a great idea can't believe I can't find extension that can do that!) C): at least have the sidebar with the vertical tabs to autohide? Does anybody know how to do any of these 3 or maybe have a better workaround?

A folder on the bookmarks menu that stroes individual bookmarks, fills half the screen of a standard 1080p screen with totally empty white space.

The padding in between each and every single bookmark, in any place that can store bookmarks, will be filled by at least 3 or 4 mm of empty white space. Between every single bookmark.

This is a huge amount of completely pointless scrolling.

Do you have an RSI? No?

Good for you. I, sadly do.

Has there been a fix for this cos the chrome folder .css "fix" is not working for me.

If i cant solve this i am going to change browsers. I dont care. I love Firefox and used it since the netscape days in the 90's, but am not going in for another surgery since you people insist of giving people more RSI's.

Can you add a configuration setting to Mozilla Firefox to disable Create New Profile, configurable in the policies.json file? (A second option but a much uglier one would be to disable being able to select a file location for a new profile. Then you could make the default profile directory write only, which would also accomplish the same thing.) (A third option would be to able to configure extensions by default upon installation in the ExtensionSettings policy.)

To explain, I use LeechblockNG on Firefox on Ubuntu. Very helpful. By placing a policies.json file (see at bottom) in /etc/firefox/policies/ directory, I can create a system wide policy. I can make the LeechblockNG extension mandatory and to be installed upon every new profile creation. That all works very well. HOWEVER, there is NO way to be able to set those options in the new profile. So LeechblockNG is installed with default options (which are no blocking at all), which effectively bypasses the addon.

I am also writing the author of the leechblock extension to see if there is any way to set the options for leechblock upon installation (the third option above).

But I know other people have this same question, and at present, if I am correct, there is no way to block new profile creation, or the Profile Manager window in Firefox.

So could you please add that option to the Firefox policies.json configuration? Something like "DisableNewProfiles": true would do it.

Thanks!

My current policies.json file in /etc/firefox/policies/ directory: { "policies": { "BlockAboutConfig": true, "BlockAboutProfiles": true, "PrivateBrowsingModeAvailability": 1, "DisableSafeMode": true, "ExtensionSettings":{ "*": { "installation_mode": "blocked", "blocked_install_message": "Prohibited install more extensions." }, "leechblockng@proginosko.com": { "installation_mode": "force_installed", "install_url": "https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/downloads/file/4374316/leechblock_ng-1.6.6.xpi" } } } }

In the Firefox View tab, we can search for Open Tabs. I am wondering how I can make a strict search for a particular pattern. For example, let's say I have hundreds of tab open for youtube like below:

https://youtube.com/watch?v=<random> https://youtube.com/watch?v=<random> https://youtube.com/watch?v=<random> https://youtube.com <---------------------I want this one to appear in my search

how can I ONLY search for open tabs that is the youtube front page (i.e to not match anything after the ".com"). If I just search for "youtube.com", it will match all of them, but I only want the front page.

Then, i can quickly close all of the duplicate

The Shortcut Icons are now all differant to that of the Websites. This makes identifing the well known website Icons time consuming and fraustrtingly unnecessary. In the drop down Edit of the icons they are already set to the websites - but do not display them.

Is this the new Ai doing stupid stuff?

Can it be reversed by customers using FF or is it just another "wait and see if it ever gets better" thing!

I have a large number of folders in trees that go several levels deep. Sometimes over the years I have made two folders on similar topics.

I understated that there used to be an add-on that was discontinued after about version 54, that would do this. I understand that there is a very tedious process to identify the folder for a specific link.

I want to be able to view, search, and even possibly move folders to another part the tree, much like a Windows folder, so that I can move the links from, say, HP printer, all together and delete the links that I no longer need.

If such an add on does not now exist, how do i submit a request to Mozilla to have this done?

I'm a retiree in my mid 70's...I've heard that Firefox will stop extending ESR's past March of this year. I'm not in a position to buy and update all my software and laptop & desktop the latter can't go any higher on Mac OS. So I'm asking that you please consider continuing support for older browsers. My browser is Mac Safari 14.1.2, I would be OK making a good sized donation to Mozilla or paying a monthly subscription if necessary to be kept updated on Firefox ESR's. I've seen other inquiries on your site from others asking about the same thing. So please consider my request and let me know if there's anything I can do to get your continued ESR support for my computers. It would mean a great deal to me and I know quite a few others as well...So please pass my thoughts up to management and I will hope for the best...

My Thanks,

Tom D.
