From version 110 and up, there are websites where the autofill no longer works. The option to select your saved users & PWs comes up but upon selecting one, nothing gets filled. On other websites the autofill works as intended. Going to the real debrid website is the one I can accurately reproduce the issues on. With version 109 and below, the autofill works. Is there a proper work around besides having to go into the settings, finding out the password and inputting it manually?

For some reason, the "Location" site permission will spontaneously change to "Blocked" after some time on the site.

This seemingly only happens when another permission is in use (e.g. Camera).

I'm not even in California, much less Sacramento.

Google account addresses Not in California! Locations for search results always shows Sacramento.

FireFox search cashed cleared. FireFox app closed. Phone reloaded.

Not yet Firefox reinstalled. Last time done ALL SHORT CUTS & BOOKMARKS LOST! ANOTHER MAJOR HINDERANCE.

And NO, THERE IS NO GOOD FIX FOUND SEARCHING FIREFOX SUPPORT. NOTHING FROM GOOGLE EITHER. ALL THE SIMPLE LOGICAL "SET MY ADDRESSES". NEED REAL FIX

Thankfully not too often are web site pages that are grossly out-of-format for my Android phone. Mostly everything is tiny. Yes, I can pinch expand or zoom in but then side back and forth scrolling is required to navigate and absorb the page. Not the optimum result. Very annoying.

I have font adjustments but those result in a similar and distroted page.

One web site option when available was a toggle for windows/cell phone that worked pretty good but it's not always provided. That implies the web site design is the formatting adjustment function.

Is the resultant cell phone display formatting a function of the visited web site, browser, phone device, etc or some combination of those entities settings?

The attachment is for the sumo web site page having this issue. https://client01.chat.mibbit.com/?server=irc.mozilla.org&channel=#sumo ok

More a Concern or Desire than a question.

Very common these days (2023) are device types - PCs, Cell Phones, etc. Firefox browser is available to (my main interest) Windows PCs and Android Cell Phone. Then their OS, versions, etc. All have many differences so establishing these differences in the beginning of questios and explainations are critical to the assumptions going forward in support.

The moz://a Support (most support forums) overlook this vital step before delving down into the myriad of complex and different option settings and discussions. I'm no professional but am confident that instruction details are likely very specific to the different device/OS, versions, Platforms, etc. That said I am very frustrated to the lack of a definite starting point for research as most if not all that information is useless to ones specific needs.

Hope you can take this to Hart and consider adjusting the Top Level Titles and/or providing Option Filters to better guide users to their specific needs.

A little different but related, in the old DOS days the c:\\ path format was a very useful practice to provide an orientation of where you are logically. It even accommodates a backward or higher level logic projection up into the internet or devices. I'm only amateur in the full understanding but am fairly certain of its existence. These no nonsense logical establishments go a long way in understanding & conveying complex theory. STANDARDS.

Thank you. Rod

On this link if the options are selected, there are two embedded PDFs in two tabs on same page. The firefox Android app downloader randomly gives the option to download only one of the two. I wish to download both the PDFs. Is there a way to stop the firefox from giving download option, but see the embedded PDFs on the page itself. So that we can download it by clicking on the embedded PDFs.

Below are images on expected behaviour of chrome browser, but errorneous behaviour of firefox. Firefox shows option to download the file from first tab that is E-text. But when clicked to download ends up downloading file on the second tab Learn More.

  1. 1- last week Firefox was blocking me from accessing certain sites that I always go to.
  1. 2- I cannot access about:config. I've tried signed in and out as well as with different search engines and I just get a blank screen. Help?
  1. 3- is it normal for FF to have permission to download files without notifying? I checked the permission list and seemed like there is alot of dangerous and malicious permission allowed as system permissions. Please help?
  1. 4- when I log in and check devices, 2 new logins show up. One says my phone's model # and the second one says logged into Firefox browser or something like that. Is it normal to have duplicates like that when I only use my Android phone?
  1. 5- I've tried and cannot find any way to login to my network or make any network changes? Please help?

I commented on play store and was told to send my question on here so they could be investigated more. Thank you for your help.

The most recent version of uBlock Origin causes broken page rendering very commonly, which is a massive pain. I read that a user reverted to a previous version to eliminate the issue, but I can't find any way how to.

The addon is offered by mozilla as an .xpl file, but it doesn't seem Android or Firefox have the ability to open this? I tried File Explorer apps that can designate an app to open .xpls with, but Firefox is never in the list. Other browsers just redownload it.

How do I do something so basic as reverting to an earlier version of an add-on? Why must Firefox be this absurd add-on nanny on Android if the tiny listsl of approved apps is going to host apps with browser-breaking bugs?

About:config will not work for me I get either a blank screen or it just goes back to prev screen. Also when I check devices logged in, I will log out of everything, then only log in to Mozilla support and it showed 3 logins in the picture I've attached. 1 for moz support, 1 for Firefox 109 android 12, and 1 for my phone build wingtech. Which I also don't understand because I own a metro PCs service carrier and the actual phone is a TMobile revvl 6 pro 5g. I also noticed that somehow my phone had a custom build version ROM on it and I never downloaded that to my phone so everything should be totally stock. So I don't understand. Can anyone help?

As the title says, been having trouble opening links with href.li at the start. I'd need to manually remove the words before it can start to load.

Strangely enough it only happens on phones and not tablets because I never have that problem on my Samsung Galaxy Tab 6 lite.

I'm currently having the problem on my Samsung Galaxy A52s 5g but I'm pretty sure I had this problem with my old phone (a Huawei honor 9) as well.

Thank you in advance!
