Hello, I'm using Firefox since day 1. Now I just discovered that it's virtually impossible to completely delete the history in Firefox. I do try to delete my browsing history as suggested in the Firefox documentation. The problem is with "Firefox suggests". Pages that should have been cleared out by deleting the browser history, be it in settings or over the three bar menu still show up there. To me this is unacceptable. I can obfuscate by disabling all address bar search options, but the history data is then still stored somewhere. I do not use any cloud services. Attached you can see an image of what I mean. All browsing history should have been deleted but still show up (also after restarting Firefox).

I would really like to continue to use Firefox but only if I can delete ALL browsing history. Thank you. Best Regards

There are times where I like having the title bar appear on my laptop display of a webpage. Other times I want to take a screenshot of selected page content, and the title bar just obstructs ability to fit the bottom line or two of the page content I want to screenshot. Yes i know I can reduce the zoom size of the page display itself, but sometimes (often) due to the page layout's CSS, this results in both too-small type for me to comfortably read AND even with the text reflow, it's not enough to reveal the extra bottom of page content I am trying to capture.

The Firefox UI controls are very robust and well-appreciated how much customization can be had, but still, the number of steps required to go in and turn Title Bar off is just way too many for quick and efficient workflow -- especially when after getting the screenshot I want, I will want to just turn Title-Bar back on. Surely there must be a way to create an icon option that lives next to Home, Bookmarks, Downloads, Refresh whose function is to actuate a quick 1/2 second toggle off, then a quick toggle back on?

Recently many sites have (for reasons I cannot fathom) introduced a pre-login form: ie a form that requires a username to be entered before an password text box is provided. This seems to be a trend and it is incredibly annoying.

The issue I have is that FF does not recognise the page/form as a login page and therefore does not provide a list of usernames for the domain in question.

Any advice or help would be very much appreciated.

My usernames and passwords are both saved on firefox. On certain websites, like reddit, the option to autofill only appears when I click on the password box, not the username box, and it only fills out the password. This happens both on windows and android.

I feel like this has to have been asked and answered 1000 times already, but when I searched I could not find any answer links that matched my question.

There seem to be so many variables in adjusting down to a molecular level what gets shown and what gets suppressed by customizing Firefox CSS, or by using about:config . But at this point for me, I am really looking for a DEFAULT USAGE solution. I'm sure there is one and I just don't know it.

All I want is to be able to use and click Mac's built in UI "Green" button in the traffic-light UI element at the top-left corner of a window, and have the browser obey and: strip out or suppress all Firefox browser "chrome" elements such as tab bar, URL bar, bookmarks bar -- and show me the webpage I am looking at truly full-screen. Then when done with full-screen view, I want to click/toggle Mac's "green light" button again and have all the Firefox browser UI elements return. (Tab bar, URL bar, bookmarks bar).

It does not happen in Safari, or other browsers, just Firefox. Does anyone know what might be causing this? Thanks. Kathie

I've been having issues with Cross-Origin Request Blocked errors for a while now. I'm on Windows 11. I first noticed this issue when visiting YouTube. I would go to play a video and any video I tried to play would just load forever and never play. Then I noticed I was having the same issue on Facebook. The page would load but then a majority of the images wouldn't. I can use YouTube and Facebook just fine on Chrome. The reason for the error shows as "CORS request did not succeed". Initially I tried uninstalling all of my extensions. Then I completely uninstalled Firefox using Total Uninstall (for good measure). Nothing has worked. I'm not sure what changed that would cause these errors. Could this be a network issue? I've been having issues with certain sites on my Macbook Air as well (Chrome and Safari) but I thought maybe that was because it's pretty old and not supported by apple anymore.
