How to save all bookmarks with QuickDial sketches when reinstalling windows (version 1903)?
Thanks youDeveloper response
posted 6 years agoIf you reinstall your system, it's best to backup all your Firefox profiles...
Restoring only QD need to extract the QD plugins settings and datastore...
On Windows, these files is stored in your appdata profile folder. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 15004113, 6 years agoWith Firefox 67 it seems the add-on is not working properly. So it's no longer possible to link the Firefox homepage directly to Quick Dial, eg. by clicking the house icon. That's pretty annoying.
It still works fine when you open a new tab.Developer response

If you have an issue, try to disable other webext...
Or open an issue on https://github.com/MatMoul/quickdial-webext/issues - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14895778, 6 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13133600, 6 years agoPretty good. Lightweight and Easy to use. Opensource. Not as bloated as most other quick dial addons, no cloud nonsense.
Profile Import/export and sync option that works over network folders or dropbox/gdrive/other would be appreciated.Developer response
posted 6 years agoThanks for your feedback,
The import/export feature is in the todo list...
For the sync, it's more complicated, I'm waiting if an idea coming to me... - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14878073, 6 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by aa030331, 6 years agoIt's a nice add-on to put some shortcuts in the new page, but there are still a few problems.
1. when I close and reopen FF, my restored Tabs will turn into quick dial tabs , so there will be dozens of QD tabs and I have to click last-page button to restore them one by one.
2. Is there any possible to make a search bar in the QD page? It's more convenient to search when you have too many icons on the toolbar.
3. It will be very convenient to drag-&-drop a Tab or a Hyperlink to become a shortcut
4. I hope I can rearrange my shortcuts and folders with it's title/last used time/added time/used frequency.
However, thanks for making this useful add-on.

Thanks for replying my comment.
1. Problem solved.
2. I have many icon next to my address bar and sometimes I need to put two FF side to side, so the address bar became too small..... But it's OK that you don't want to put an extra thing on it.
3.&4. Take your time, though I wish you have 48 Hrs a day, hehehe.....Developer response
posted 6 years agoThanls for your feedback...
1. Try to increase "startpage timeout" value in QD settings...
2. For me, the adress bar is the place to make search...
3. Good idea, open an issue on github...
4. The sorting feature is in my TODO list but I missing time ;-) - Rated 5 out of 5by yustusalexsus, 6 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Flush, 6 years agoКлассное дополнение! Вполне заменил мне любимый FastDial.
1. Растягивает превью некоторых сайтов, если можно исправьте. (соотношением сторон в сетке не получается изменить отдельные превью, только все)
2. В моем случае, не всегда корректно подгружает превью, после команды "обновить" в контекстном меню QuickDial. Поэтому приходится захватывать превьюшку c новой вкладки с задержкой 10000.Developer response
posted 6 years agoThanks for your feedback
1. Try to adjust the ratio in QD settings - Grid
For Capture in new tab, at now, you need to size your window manually
2. Some website can't be captured with the integrated update method...
For this you can capture it in new tab but 10000s is very strange, 2000s is the default value
Don't mess that you can open issue on https://github.com/MatMoul/quickdial-webext/issues - Rated 5 out of 5by KittyJo, 6 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13522774, 6 years agoUnlike this extension, there's another popular tab dial extension that requires cloud storage. This is much better, its Open Source and straight forward, but has enough features to make it the best of its kind on Firefox. Great work.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14567700, 6 years agoI love this extension! There are a lot of quick dials, but many are not open source, and collect user data. I Love that it saves your links in bookmarks, rather than a cloud service, letting you choose to use Firefox sync or back them up to a file. Much better for user privacy. There are plenty of customization options, like choosing your own icons instead of screenshots. It's also very lightweight, so there's no delay before it loads every time you open a tab like there is with some similar extensions. An easy 5 stars!

Can you open an issue on github with more infos or a video...

EDIT : Thanks for you re-review... - Rated 5 out of 5by GT, 6 years agoI like this add-on more than other similar ones, especially since the customized images used for the icons is stored locally in the one file (storage.js). Therefore, easily backed up if needed. An export and import would be more helpful.
[See below*] The one problem I experienced is mentioned by another user "override links that I tried to open from e-mail and desktop".
The problem here is when opening a link from an email when Firefox is closed.
Firefox starts up then Quick-Dial opens up in a tab, but the link from the email fails to open in a tab. However, if Firefox is already running then the link will be opened in a tab. Other Dials do not seem to have this problem.
Otherwise it is deserving of 5 stars.
*Thanks for the quick response, your suggestion worked, I had to use 10000 for the Startpage timeout. This is probably due to the fact that I have quite a few add-ons. Thanks again, I decided it deserves a rating more closer to 5, then just 4.Developer response
posted 6 years agoThanks for your return, try to edit QD Settings - StartPage Timeout...
You can set this value to 0 for disabling the feature but if you encouter some white page with QD as startpage, try to increase the value
