by Andrew E., 7 years agoHi!
It's quite a nice alternative to Speed Dial which I've used for so many years. And I didn't have any serious troubles with it since I've switched to it after Speed Dial had died. But now, after the last update occurred, something strange happens to it.
My Firefox doesn't have a homepage, I always set it as about:home and it works just fine. It still works but now, when I open FF, after downloading about:home, it automatically starts to download Dial #10 from 1st group of my GSD set. It doesn't depend on which site is set in this dial, it doesn't depend on the version of Firefox (I've tried to switch from v. 57.0.4 to v. 58 - nothing has changed after it). When I clear the dial, everything's alright, only about:home is downloaded as usual.
I don't know whether this issue is caused by new version of GSD or not. It's not very serious but quite annoying like any other things occurring without my intention. If there's any way to fix this issue, I would be glad to see it fixed. It's not very convenient to keep that Dial #10 cleared forever:)
As for the rest, Group Speed Dial is fine. Keep up the good work!

posted 7 years agoHello,
Well this sounds like something related to the latest update where I fixed broken dialing to the dial 10 using Ctrl + 0 short-key.
But opening dial number 10 should happen ONLY if you have "Ctrl + Number for Group Speed Dial" add-on installed and only if you press "Ctrl + 0" or "Alt + 0".
Could you please send me the list of add-ons you have installed to my support e-mail?
Anyway this sounds quite bad, I think I know a way how to fix it (but still I would like to know the cause first), I will probably release the fix in few hours.
Thank you for reporting it (but please, use my e-mail next time, it's easier for me to track bug there).
Have a nice day :)
Best regards,
Juraj Mäsiar
