It was a great addon, but for some time it seems not to work anymore. To change links colors I have to to enable Firefox's contrast feature, which changes many other parameters. Having "visited link enabler" enabled or not does not change the situation. Links have always FF default colors :-(

Works for me, the recent Fx update merely changed default color in my case (now it's purple instead my earlier red). One thing I really miss is black/whitelist and per-site settings. For example I could have red as visited, but on Wikipedia that could be green. It needs a new info on color settings: now it's Settings>General>Contrast settings>Custom>Manage colors (might differ due the translation of different locale). For dark theme use BG: [RGB 28 27 34] FG: [251 251 254] PS: I just realized the purple color in default (light or dark) theme in Fx comes from "accent color" in Windows. So you can either use custom theme or change windows settings.

great extension. stopped working firefox update 138. hoping auther fixes. thanks.

all of the sudden its not working. 5-6-2025

was an awesome addon plz update it

the solution i have found:
Open about:config in Firefox.
Search for: toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets
Set it to true
Go to about:support
Next to "Profile Folder", click "Open Folder".
Navigate to the chrome folder inside your profile directory. If it doesn’t exist, create it.
Create a file named userContent.css if it doesn't exist.Add this CSS:

a:visited {
color: #ad1d1f !important; /* Replace with any color you like */
}
Restart Firefox.

the color from the firefox options do not fonction for darkmode ?!

Bonne extension jusqu'à la mise à jour à la version 138 de Firefox. Une petite mise à niveau serait la bienvenue. ;-)

Worked great until a firefox update. Now you cant change the colors unfortunately.

Was working great.
Until I updated to FF version 138.0.
Now cant set custom color :(

Simple and efficient, does the job without having to go in a preference page or even reloading the tabs after installation.

works great, please add an exclusion list to not disable the extension for localhost

Work as expected but it needs the function to select website ,without it ,many website that have hyperlink is very broken (Take example like Spotify ,it colored the song's name ,artist ,...)

Need Update asap. Many website visited link are not changing color anymore.

Since many years one of my Must-Have addons. Unfortunately there are some issues on spiegel.de.

Having read a newly published article appearing at the top of the page, it unfortunately tends to lose its 'read' color status at some point, when the article is moving down the page, often through several sections, until it eventually reaches its final home.

Unfortunately their newsroom thinks that it is a smart idea, to slightly modify the title and hence the URL along that process quite frequently, which then of course causes visitedlinkenabler to fail recognizing an already read article.

Is there a way for visitedlinkenabler to only compare the unchangeable part
"www.spiegel.de{/omittable changing parts}/a-[and-essential-hex-patterns]"
of their URLs with FF's history?

I am missing an option to hide elements like "display none" for this addon to be 5/5

Useful and practical. It might be better to have a switch.

One of the most useful extensions. What do you think about checking links without its ref ID part? That would make visited links colors working on sites like Amazon search results. Probably it would require storing a dictionary: site - cut off. Danke

This is must-have extension!

Thank you for this add-on! Could you add an option so it works only on selected websites? Thanks!

Works perfectly. As already mentioned by others, a whitelist or blacklist of sites would be greatly appreciated. Thanks to the author!

I finally figured out why this extension wasn't working for me: Your browser settings must be set to "remember" your browsing history. Eureka!
