the developer has done an excellent job at providing the functionality for form history.

Does not work for mobile. Can see what's saved but cannot paste.

Thanks 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{}

(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.

Very good and useful add-on but it doesn't always store entries

This is a wonderful extension. The developer is to be commended.

Wondering how to delete, not import, old database from pre Jan 2020 version. Thanks!

It 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

Amazing. This is the best there is.

Великолепный плагин. Наконец-то появилась достойная альтернатива аддону Lazarus Form Recovery который перестал работать ещё на 5.x версиях Firefox. Очень не хватало такого аддона. Вы знаете, он даже лучше чем Lazarus Form Recovery. Огромная благодарность автору!

Lousy form recovery. Can't automatically fill fields nor copy text from their menu.

Fonctionne tel que prévu et conserve la mise en forme.

Live-Saver: Saves much livetime (& anger)! Easy, functional & reliable. Support (=> financial contribution) strongly recommended!

I'm concerned that there is no universal way to prevent this add-on from locally saving sensitive information like social security numbers, phone numbers, etc.. Yes, these sensitive fields can be manually blacklisted for any particular site, but that requires knowing the precise field name; not impossible, but cumbersome to the point of not being helpful.

My thought is that this add-on would be more valuable for some people if it could be limited to fields where the entered test is longer than a specified number of characters. So, a user could say, "Save any field in which I type over 300 characters".

That would side-step local saving of most sensitive data, and focus on saving long text fields that take time to compose.

Your thoughts?

Jay

UPDATE:

Any progress on adding this type of option? Thanks!

Hello Stephan and thank you for this great plugin!

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 again
