Hello,

I'm really sorry for the inconveniences, but please understand my situation. I'm just using the tools I have available. If the tool is broken, all I can do is complain to the manufacturer.
Currently the tool is the IndexedDB database and the manufacturer is Firefox. And the situation is even more complicated because of other software in your PC that want to "help" you by cleaning and corrupting your Firefox database.

Best regards,

Hello,
Your groups are there, you just don't see them. The group-list is actually scrollable, but you can also:
1) increase Group list height to 50 in Options page / Groups tab, to see two rows of groups (you can also decrease font size or reduce spacing)
2) use group-dials instead to navigate between groups, you can see that in the introduction video with the group-dial "Work" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wvT4w-R8hJU)
3) rename groups with long names :)

But as a user with 3 big monitors I can also recommend you to buy a bigger screen, like 27" with QHD resolution (2560x1440) - it's a great way to increase productivity and you can fit a lot of groups there.

I hope this helps.

Have a nice day :)

Hello,

This is a Firefox bug - every add-on that you pin will disappear after it's upgrade. And since I'm actively developing my add-on, there is a lot of disappearing (I've released new version even today).
I could program a work-around that would store the position of pinned tabs and then restore them after the upgrade, but it's not easy and there is just no time for that right now (I'm really sorry, but as a full-time addon developer my income is now extremely low and I need to focus on things that maters...).

Have a nice day :)

Hello,

I'm sorry to hear that. If you could send me an e-mail with specific issues, I'm sure I can improve stuff.
The feedback is very important as for me as author, everything seems simple and intuitive (even when it's not).

Have a nice day :)

Best regards,

Hello,
To set it up as homepage, please follow the steps in Options page / first tab / first line.
To enable hot-kes support, please install support add-on:

Have a nice day :)

Hello,

There is a lot of known Firefox issues listed in the description.
If you find an issue not listed there, please let me know to my support e-mail.
I'm fixing most of the bugs immediately.

Have a nice day :)

Hello,

There is no old version :), the add-on you used to use was made by different author and using different technologies and with much more time :)

Hello,

The issues with double-tabs being opened seems more like a Firefox issue, so far nobody reported such issue (and I get a lot of e-mails :)).
You may want to use Firefox Reset feature to fix such issues:
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/refresh-firefox-reset-add-ons-and-settings

Regarding reloading thumbnails - this is a tricky thing to do now since creating thumbnails in background is no longer possible in new Web-extension API. So reloading thumbnails gets interrupted if you close or switch tab. Auto-reload with "almost background reload" is coming in upcoming weeks.

If you experience more issues, please report them to my support e-mail. I'm fixing bugs sometimes within 24 hours.

I'm sorry for the inconveniences.

Have a nice day :)

Best regards,

Hello,
It's harder to do things these days, Firefox doen't allow some functions like before.
Anyway you can set it up as homepage by following instructions on the first line on first tab in Options page.
I hope this helps :)

Hello,

There is a good chance that your Firefox has broken database support. This happens in some rare cases usually on very old Firefox profiles or for users that downgraded from Firefox 57.
To validate that you can visit this demo page:
http://mdn.github.io/to-do-notifications/
This page is using same database technology as my add-on. Check the log text in bottom left corner - if you see there "Error loading database" then your Firefox has indeed broken database.

What should help is Firefox reset feature:
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/refresh-firefox-reset-add-ons-and-settings
Resetting profile will preserve your passwords, bookmarks and other important things.

I hope this helps.

Have a nice day :)

Hello there :)

As an author of GroupSpeedDial I can guarantee you there are no passwords or any other private data being collected.
In fact, unless you create an account on https://group-speed-dial.fastaddons.com/ there will be no data send to my server at all.
If you create an account, only information about dials you entered (like URL and name) will be synchronized with server.

All this can be verified by anyone using Developer tools in Firefox and checking network messages.

Also all add-ons including this one has to pass automatic and manual tests/reviews done by FIrefox team to avoid malicious add-ons.

Regarding the message about accessing all data - this means that add-on can inject "content script" into some pages - specifically this add-on can inject it only in my "https://*.fastaddons.com/*"" domain, this can be verified in manifest.json file.

I would like to point out that privacy is very important to me and I'm doing my best to protect all users data synchronized to my server. These data will be never accessible to anyone else!

Regarding your issue with the "blank page", could you please write me to my support e-mail your Firefox version and operating system you are using? Add-on should work normally in every OS in every new Firefox version including Nightly.

Have a nice day and weekend :)

Best regards,

Juraj Mäsiar
