You are not alone. Firefox has some issues recently and users are loosing all add-ons data, not just in my add-on. See for example this bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1530660
But there is way to recover it even if you don't have backups. Firefox in version 66 migrated all add-ons data to a new storage and during this process they created a backup file - "storage.js.migrated".
You can use this file to restore your data, see this article:
https://blog.mozilla.org/addons/2018/08/03/new-backend-for-storage-local-api/
After you located the file, you can actually directly import that file into my speed dial - just rename it to "xxx.group_speed_dial" and then import.
And lastly, maybe you Firefox just switched profiles. You see, Firefox 67 started to use separate profile for each installation - this is a good thing to prevent some serious issues, however for some users this actually caused "data loss" because their Firefox was suddenly using a new profile. But all you need to do is switch to a correct profile. See this article for more info:

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 :(

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 (admin@fastaddons.com) with more details - specifically, how was the HTML file created.

jo se napisał një muaj më parëHello,
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:

Without New tab override, your so-called "speed" dial is no faster than opening the Bookmarks menu. Don't lie to technologically literate users. I feel stupid for wasting time on your pointless extension.

Sadly, there is nothing more I can do about this situation. Only Firefox team can fix it.

How do I set it to open tabs in background without automatically shifting to the opened tab?Wótegrono wuwijarja
jo se napisał 2 muaj më parëHello,
See the Options page / Dials tab / "Always open in new tab" (at the bottom).
That should make clicking a dial open new tab and not focus it - if that's what you are after :).
Note that also middle mouse click opens dials in new tab (not focused).

Wish there was something better like Vivaldi browser has built in. Don't know why Firefox just doesn't have their own as an option.

There is only a few paid features:

The issue is, that some basic features are just not that intuitive to do, make sure to watch this introduction video:

but depending on the action, the Dial tab gets hidden.
Even if you pin the tab, it gets hidden depending on the action.
Is there a way to keep the Dial tab visible at all times?Wótegrono wuwijarja
jo se napisał 3 muaj më parëHello,
Could you send me email (admin@fastaddons.com) with more details?
Because I'm not sure I understand the issue.
Note that restarting Firefox doesn't preserve addons tabs, so dials page is usually closed after restarting:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1742771
I'm not sure this helps, but you can press F4 to open dials page, or "Alt + o" to open quick search.

- Z 5 z 5 pógódnośonywót Wužywaŕ Firefox 18253119, 3 muaj më parëUpdate: Thank you for the prompt reply, the CSS seems to resolve the issue so far, I will update if I have notice any more problems.
Looking forward for the next update! Best regards.
Overall the experience with Group Speed Dial is perfect, but there is one small problem I encountered with dynamic layout option.
By selecting "Hide last "+" dial in dynamic layout", there is still an invisible dial space reserved for the "+", which causes to create an extra invisible column at some cases. I am wondering if that is an intentional design, because sometimes when I accidently touch the mouse wheel and the entire layout shifts up to show me a column of nothing.
The other non-dynamic options does not have the issue, but will either squeeze or stretch the dials on a vertical monitor, that is why I have been using the dynamic layout option. It would be nice if by hiding the "+" will also remove that reserved dial space for better view. Thank you!Wótegrono wuwijarja
jo se napisał 3 muaj më parëUPDATE:
I've experimented with it now, and it looks like it works fine.
And I've just realized, you can test the fix yourself - simply open Options page / General / "Custom CSS styles:" and paste there this style:
html:not(.drag_and_drop, .add_current_mode, .edit_dial, .edit_group) {
.hide_dial_plus.dynamic > .dials > .is_plus:last-of-type {display: none}
}
/* ------------------------------------------ */
Hello,
I can confirm that the hidden "+" dial is indeed taking space.
I'm not sure why though.
But I understand how this is unexpected from the user point.
I'll do my best to fix this in the upcoming 27.2 version (it should be out in a few weeks).

For users, Windows7 Mozilla left one working version of Firefox 115.21.0esr (64-bit) when updating and synchronizing your glorious expansion, unfortunately, has stopped working with the formulation 'to use this extension must be updated by Firefox', i.e. Update to the latest version. But the problem is that the latest versions do not work with Win7, only with Win10. Is there any solution so that your glorious expansion earned on Firefox, versions for Win7?
upd
Thank you for your reply, it quickly resolved the problem!Wótegrono wuwijarja
jo se napisał 4 muaj më parëHello,
Yes, the latest version 27.0 requires at least Firefox ESR 128.
However, for your Firefox ESR 115 you can still install the previous version 26.0 from here:
https://addons.mozilla.org/addon/groupspeeddial/versions/
(see the "Download file" below the the changelogs for Version 26.0)
But at the same time I would strongly recommend upgrading your Windows 7 to something newer - since the old Firefox 115 is missing some new web features so sooner or later, even normal webpages will stop working for you. Note that Windows 10 is also getting unsupported by Microsoft later this year, so you better upgrade directly to 11 :), or switch to Linux Mint, that way your device would be still as fast as on Windows 7.

You literally created every possible option someone could think of, but there is no way to make those thumbnails smaller. It's probably new generation has a problem with logic. I've noticed that more and more. Really why would you do so many different features for something that can't be changed in the size?! Where is your logic? I can't use it for example, it looks super huge for me, I don't like it, and changing the size should be the priority #1 for speed dial rather that 100 colors of shadows etc. Don't get me wrong, everything looks great besides that, but someone who created that has a huge problem with a logic (English isn't my native language, so forgive me for mistakes). Good luck

You can change group layout (so also dial sizes) in the "Edit group" window - right click group name or click the main menu to access "Edit group".
