- Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur ML, 6 lat temuThanks 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{} - Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur Aseqdac Firefox 15918521, 6 lat temu(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. - Yettwasezmel 3 ɣef 5sɣur Matt GD, 6 lat temuVery good and useful add-on but it doesn't always store entries

yeffeɣ-d deg 6 lat temuSome websites use advanced techniques and frameworks involving javascript that make it virtually impossible to capture user input in a generic way. On request I can add workarounds for popular websites/frameworks, please submit an issue and let me know for which website(s) capturing entries does not work (see built-in Help, Manual, Known Issues).
Recent update 2.5.6.1 contains a fix that improves storing entries for many popular javascript frameworks like the cke editor. This release massively increases the number of sites where it is able to store/restore your work. - Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur Aseqdac Firefox 12166271, 6 lat temuThis is a wonderful extension. The developer is to be commended.
- Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur Aseqdac Firefox 15572740, 6 lat temuWondering how to delete, not import, old database from pre Jan 2020 version. Thanks!

yeffeɣ-d deg 6 lat temuOlder (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 - Yettwasezmel 4 ɣef 5sɣur Aseqdac Firefox 12334292, 6 lat temuIt works for sure, but it saves an excessive HTML junk so when I try to restore FB post, for example, it suffers to get it right. There should definitely be a clean-up feature

yeffeɣ-d deg 5 lat temuThere is a clean-up feature: if you open the details of an entry you can either choose to copy all (including the HTML-junk) or just copy only the bare text. - Yettwasezmel 1 ɣef 5sɣur kingdomsaint, 6 lat temuLousy form recovery. Can't automatically fill fields nor copy text from their menu.

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 againTiririt n ineflayen
yeffeɣ-d deg 7 lat temuHi
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 - Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur hermann-san, 7 lat temu
