Firefox used to have some extensions which turned multiple pages into a single, easily scrollable, one. They were called AutoPager Fixed and AutoPagerize. Neither work anymore. Does anyone know of some good alternatives?

browser.search.showOneOffButtons set to false no longer brings back the old Search box behaviour in Firefox 43. Anyone know if there's a different switch I can throw? I've tried to get used to the new behaviour but it's messing with over a decade of muscle memory.

The beta version of CTR seems to address this, try checking it out if you haven't. Classic Theme Restorer v1.4.1beta1 [new option > General UI (1)] Fx43+: Old Search (experimental) --> http://i.imgur.com/FxuFPtg.png -- old 'search manager window' does not get restored by this (use search configuration in about :preferences#search area)

I've tried to get used to the new behaviour but it's messing with over a decade of muscle memory. Wow, that's a bummer. Back when I tried it, the newer search UI seemed very hurried and incomplete, so I disabled it with that preference. Looking at its original tracking bug now, I understand why - it was hurried and incomplete.  I hope they've improved it since then.

So every so often the hamburger menu button (yeah I know, I'm a casual user) quits working. I click on it and nothing happens; the menu doesn't pop up. I can still access the menu via the alt key, but the hamburger button doesn't return to normal until after a browser restart. Anyone happen to know what's up with that? I want to say this started happening with Firefox 41. It was pretty recent.

So apparently the Waterfox guy is planning to keep XUL and XPCOM. Thank gently caress for that. Really didn't want to mess with Pale Moon in order to keep Tree Style Tab. Also means that the project will remain relevant once official x64 Firefox finally drops. https://www.reddit.com/r/waterfox/comments/3n53aa/will_waterfox_drop_xul_and_xpcom/

Not only is there no indication that Tree Style Tab will be impossible to implement with WebExtensions, support for it is literally in the design document. XUL will also be supported to some degree for years, most likely. However, bits will gradually be moving to HTML (I think the New Tab page is changing soon). It's not like the browser is going to switch overnight and force all the add-on devs to play catchup. Avenging Dentist fucked around with this message at 18:28 on Oct 4, 2015 |

I think at the last update to the stable channel, Firefox no longer opens PDFs in a tab; instead, it automatically downloads them. What do I need to look into to change this back?

Are you sure this happens with all PDFs? Some sites set Content-Disposition to "attachment" for PDFs, which tells Firefox that it should always try to download the file.

You can change it by going to Options > Applications and then finding where the PDF line is and setting it what you want.

I must have changed that at some point, but I don't remember. I noticed because PDFs from my class websites started saving whereas before they would preview in FF. Thanks!

I am also having a pdf issue with FF. I have it setup as my default viewer, but whenever I open a file, FF opens up with endless tabs in some sort of loop... presumably keeps trying to open and reopen the pdf in the viewer and I have to exit firefox to stop it. This happens whether I double click a PDF or open it from within FF. Ideas on what's happening? Running 41.0.1

slidebite posted:I am also having a pdf issue with FF. If you're lucky you may be able to fix it by going to your Firefox profile folder and renaming/deleting mimeTypes.rdf. It'll create a new one that'll reset all those settings to default and maybe fix your problem if it got corrupted somehow. (If you rename it, you can always just restore the file if it didn't work.) That was how I fixed my Firefox always wanting to download SWF files, at least.

Huh weird. AMO's review process must be really behind then, because it pushed version 0.9.3.5 to me on September 30th. But then when I look at the site, it says its date is April 19th... Whatever, at least Origin isn't being left to die.

Alternately: C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<some string>.default for Windows 7.

dis astranagant posted:Yeah, AMO isn't even remotely equipped to handle their new signing policy. The new signing policy didn't change the review process at all, as far as I know. It just makes it so you have to get a review, even if you offer your add-on off-site. In fact, part of the goal (not sure how far along it is) is to increase the automation for reviews so that the reviewers have less work to do. I have a fair amount of experience submitting add-ons for review (granted, for Thunderbird), and I haven't seen an increase in the length of the queues recently. That's not to say that the queues are great, but it doesn't take anywhere near six months for a review, especially not if it's a relatively small set of changes. My experience is more like a week or two.

It mostly has to do with the fact that Palemoon doesn't use Australis. Some addons simply don't work without Firefox's new interface. For Adblock Plus/Edge, that meant that the icon didn't work, but the rest of the addon worked fine. uBlock used to have the same problem.

Is there something you need to enable to get Netflix running native under Firefox on Windows? I've read a bunch of articles saying that it was coming earlier in the year, but Firefox still wants me to install Silverlight. I'm on 41.0.2 and would love to fully ditch Chrome here.
