- Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch ML, 5 jierren lynThanks a bunch! It's been a life saver at least 6 times for me now.
One request though: Please make it so you can select text again in the 'Form field' window (the window with View: HTML, Markdown, Wiki, Text). I used to be able to do this many versions ago (I guess 6 months ago?), and it really helped to partially grab stuff. There's another specific case where copying the HTML from the Markdown notation actually works better than the default way of 'Restoring Editor fields' (via Context menu) for one particular site I use with a WYSIWYG editor for Invision forum software.
It's entryview.css 'user-select: none;' on body{} - Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch Firefox-brûker 15918521, 5 jierren lyn(X) Free & Open Source
(X) Functional, tweakable
My only warning is that it can save some very personal data, and AFAIK it is not stored encrypted, so be cautious, especially when websites take credit card details or passwords in plaintext without correctly telling the browser to not store these values.
The default clear time is some 90 days which seems far to long if you forget to clear such sensitive data. I would recommend reducing it down to your longest browsing session (time until you close all your tabs and start again), which for me is a few days. - Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch Firefox-brûker 12166271, 5 jierren lynThis is a wonderful extension. The developer is to be commended.

5 jierren lyn pleatstOlder (pre WebExtensions) versions of Form History Control stored extra information in the cleanup.sqlite file. This file is located in the root of your profile folder, you can simply delete this file.
For an explanation on where to find the profile folder see: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profiles-where-firefox-stores-user-data.
I do provide an export/import utility, see: https://github.com/stephanmahieu/formhistory-export - Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch JohnnyFive, 6 jierren lyn

I only have one question. If i understand correctly
the captured data are not stored in formhistory.sqlite
file. Can you please tell me where this data is stored ?
Thanks againAntwurd ûntwikkeler
6 jierren lyn pleatstHi
sqlite is no longer available for add-ons, HTML5 client side storage is commonly used instead. This is implemented in Firefox using IndexedDB.
See for instance here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/IndexedDB_API/Basic_Concepts_Behind_IndexedDB - Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch hermann-san, 6 jierren lyn

- Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch Daniel Saner, 7 jierren lynAn excellent add-on, reliable and with a lot of options and features, just how I like it. It's one of those extensions that, over time, you forget you have installed, but when its time for it to do its job, you'll be so glad you have it there. Or get very frustrated that you forgot to install it on your new system =)

- Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch Artem S. Tashkinov, 7 jierren lynThis must be built-in in Firefox (and other web browsers as well), it's so great and indispensable.

7 jierren lyn pleatstHi, thanks for the review.
Regarding the issues you mentioned:
1) This is actually a bug in Firefox affecting Linux users, see Bugzilla issue 1416505 (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1416505)
2) Saving data is currently performed every 5 seconds. Doing it more often has a negative impact on overall performance because it is not the keystrokes that are saved but the entire text you are editing. So in a worst case scenario you loose at most 5 seconds worth of typing.
