Lifesaver

I just came back to Firefox because Safari did not offer this. This has been a lifesaver.

How many times were you revising and editing an email online, or filling in a form only to accidentally migrate away or lose the page?

With this, you've got it on your computer. The interface is tricky--I still have t0 try a few ways and I'm not sure why I choose the selections that are available but I get it. And most of the time it does have the complete text to put it in there. Once or twice it has not worked and I don't know why.

If the interface and the options were clearer, I'd give it a 5.

One other thing. I want to be able to submit questions via my add-on page. I don't want to learn how to use github, and create an account there. But perhaps I've forgotten, Customers need to remember that it is our duty to make it easier for the businesses we deal with.

It does work. That's the only positive thing I can write about it. The UI is ugly and clumsy, it's annoying to work with and if there was any alternative that would only offer the same basic functionality, I'd probably switch at once.

Best history web forms and text input fields.

Ich hatte früher Lazarus - das war perfekt. Geht aber nicht mehr. FHC ist die absolute Krücke! Und so gut wie nicht zu gebrauchen. Ok - es hat mir schon mehrmals Eingabefelder wieder gebracht, nachdem ich versehentlich den Tab geschlossen hatte. Besser also als nichts. Aber so wie Lazarus funktioniert es bei weitem leider nicht. Z.B. wenn ich auf einer bestimmten Webseite einen alten Inhalt in einem Feld wieder haben möchte bekomme ich alle Eingabefelder der letzten Zeit angeboten. Auch von ganz anderen Webseiten. Da darf nur das angezegt werden, was zuvor auf dieser Webseite mal eingegeben wurde. Also z.B. bei Ebaybewertungen auch nur alte vorausgegangene Bewertungen. Und nicht Facebooktexte oder sonstige Eingabn auf anderen Seiten. Deshalb nur 1 Stern

A fantastic ass-saver plugin, but the UI/UX ..sometimes.. ... ARRGH.

Why in this wide world.. are those fields readonly? If i need the URL, i have to open my devtools and remove this nonsense parameter. I'm sure there's a technical reason behind this descision, but from a user perspective, this is complete nonsense.

Edit: @Stephan you're right, i was very busy and pissed ;) Pardon. I will check out Github tomorrow.

It has saved me at times ! 😅
Thanks a lot.

Great tool and reliably working, but you should be aware of the creepy point here, you install a database, that saves everything you type in non encrypted forms. Who knows who want to buy this tool and all the information behind this.
I have no Idea how to protect this data.

Not able to autofill dates in latest mozilla firefox on windows 7. date format mm/dd/yyyy. I have lot of dates to fill for my testing purpose.

Amazing addon, absolutely essential imho. Thank you so much!

(I went to the linked homepage because I wanted tip you for this, but didn't see a way. You should add one, unless you're opposed to receiving tips, that is...)

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.

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