by Firefox user 13780637, 7 years agoHi. Maybe You consider to add more option to customize appearance. I suggest only two features witch is very improve Group Speed Dial theme. Add setting for thumbnail borders - disable shadows and enable borders and setting for bordes weight (1px, 2px, 4px) and maybe for round border. And add optins for marign for all Group Speed Dial (pixels and procents) so for example I can setup 10% margin (space) around Speed Didal. Od course it would be nice for select border colors options. This is only what i'm missing for. Everythin else is excelent.

posted 7 years agoHello,
I'm adding new styling options over time - rather slowly.
However recently I've added option to load your own CSS styles - in Options page / "Custom CSS styles:".
This enables you to make all the changes you mentioned. However it requires some CSS knowledge...
I will create some examples so that it's easy for users to start. Like that ".dials > a > div > div > span { font-weight: bold; }" will make dials name "bold" (changing styles on ".dials > a" and ".dials > a > div" is what you are probably looking for).
One last thing - soon after I finish current big server upgrade, users will be able to share their custom themes. So soon you should be able to choose from a lot of themes :)
Best regards,
Juraj Mäsiar

- Rated 5 out of 5by ssdogdu, a month agoThe dial dimensions are too large. I gave 4 stars but I would give 5 stars if it was possible to resize dials and adjust how many dials should be in a row.
Edit: Yep, did it! Thanks. Will change to 5 stars of course.Developer response
posted a month agoHello,
You can customize the group layout in the "Edit group" window - right click group name or open main menu and click "Edit group".

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18725834, 2 months agoStop making things have pro subscriptions. I know it's optional and you gotta make money, but it's really stupid of you. Please either get a job or turn the pro subscription into a donation thing.

posted 5 months agoHello,
Group Speed Dial version 26.0 is still compatible with Firefox ESR 115, you can install it from here:
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/groupspeeddial/versions/
(click the "[Download file](https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/downloads/file/4348052/groupspeeddial-26.0.xpi)" below the change log)
Sadly, I can no longer bring back support in the current version of my addon due to missing JavaScript features in Firefox ESR 115. Even the newer ESR 128 is getting too old and in a few months will be replaced with Firefox ESR 140.
But the version 26.0 should work fine.

- Rated 1 out of 5by google_crawler, 6 months agoA subscription, for a add-on...
Without an option for getting a lifetime version.
There is no friking way, I'm paying a subscription.Developer response
posted 6 months agoHello,
Well, I've been developing it full time for over 7 years now with minimal income, so the money keeps me and my many addons alive.
If I had a normal job as a programmer instead, this addon wouldn't exist or the features would be only very basic.
I know it sucks... but unless I find a big sponsor, there is just no other way to fund the development.
I'm sorry for the bad news :(

posted 6 months agoHello,
It looks like you are trying to import HTML file using a wrong import field (one that accepts only JSON file type).
Try to use the import field under the "Chrome bookmarks / Opera bookmarks (speed dial)".
That should be able to handle HTML file.
If it still doesn't work, please contact me to my support email ([email protected]) with more details - specifically, how was the HTML file created.

- Rated 3 out of 5by Pavel, 6 months agoIn my opinion the biggest drawback is the inability to resize the tiles. When you increase the distance between them, the bottom row goes out of the screen boundaries

posted 6 months agoHello,
Try a different "Group layout" - first right click a group name, then select "Edit group".
There you can choose between several layout, some allows you to specify number of rows / columns, and in some you can choose the exact size of the tiles.
Some incomplete documentation is also here:
