UPGRADING
Please import your old FoxyProxy settings using the Import button!
Firefox 57+ is significantly different than previous Firefox versions. I was forced to re-write 10 years of mature FoxyProxy code from scratch. There are many missing features, and in almost all cases that is due to Firefox 57+ limitations or bugs (for example, custom-colored toolbar icons). The UI also had to change; I could no longer make FoxyProxy look like a native application. It now looks more like a traditional web site.
I understand your frustration. Please refrain from attacking me because there is nothing I can do to change Mozilla's decisions. Thank you for using my labor of love.

Older Firefox Versions
Install FoxyProxy 4.6.5. from here:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/foxyproxy-standard/versions/
Note: 4.6.5 is not maintained.
PERMISSIONS
The "Download files" permission is used to export FoxyProxy settings to a file (so you can import it elsewhere). The "Download history" permission is required only because Firefox does not allow add-ons to specify just "download files" without "download history". It's all or nothing. Internally, nothing is done with your download history. This is open source software and you can view the code yourself at https://code.getfoxyproxy.org
WHAT IS IT?
FoxyProxy is a Firefox extension which automatically switches an internet connection across one or more proxy servers based on URL patterns. Put simply, FoxyProxy automates the manual process of editing Firefox's Connection Settings dialog. Proxy server switching occurs based on the loading URL and the switching rules you define.
