My Fast Dial don't work!!!
Herhen —Fri, 02/15/2013 - 11:22
I tuned my Fast Dial and suddenly it began not working!!! I see only this:
And later:
I try delete settings my Fast Dial in AppData and reinstall it, but this don't help!
I use Firefox's version 18.0.2, Fast Dial's version 4.3.1, I don't install new addons, but I instal new theme, which I use now.
My addons:
My themes:
My plugins:
I have 64x sistem, but browser have only 32x.
I tuned search panel (by the way how to configure its, because when you click on the icon leaves the panel with the search engines, but when I select them nothing happens), where I out of curiosity scored 9999 panels, but nothing happened, and the new open tab was this nonsense. And now in the settings in all the boxes empty.
I don't understand my problem! Please help me!!! I greatly thank in advance!!!

Submitted by Efreak15 on Mon, 02/18/2013 - 09:01If the above method by Deva doesn't work, you can try resetting your firefox. It will save all your cookies, passwords, history etc, but will remove all your extensions. After resetting Firefox, try installing fast dial again. It should work then. To reset firefox, type about:support into the address bar, then hit reset firefox on the page.

Submitted by chiaroscuro on Tue, 02/19/2013 - 19:49Wow I must be getting old
When the user says
but I instal new theme, which I use now.
I presume he means the Firefox theme
I would first of all suggest he returns to the default Firefox theme to see if things work better
I am quite unclear what this has to do with the Fast Dial theme, which is above all a new background.
Surely it would be interesting to ascertain,if in a new Firefox Profile, Fast Dial behaves correctly (with default Firefox theme)
That might help clarify the nature of this particular problem
Backgrounds with spaces in the name and other anomalies often do not work, but surely this is more or different to a background not displaying problem ?
Or am I missing something ???

Submitted by Deva on Tue, 02/19/2013 - 20:51well later user said that FD broke after he turned on the search function and replicated it 9999 number of times. also, he said he doesn't have any fast dial themes at all in appearance property. i can't replicate that situation, it won't let me remove the Default theme, so that's strange.
also, besides the background, style.css file contains some other options, and a few named "border-top". since he has "null|border-top-width" error when opening FD, that's why i started to suspect on missing theme/style.css file..
i tried his firefox theme and everything worked fine for me..
Situation
Submitted by Herhen on Tue, 02/19/2013 - 23:23Nothing to do with theme, I checked!
When I import a theme from Deva's references, there are all themes, but in Fast Dial nothing changes. In all subjects in the settings appear only npstroka font lstalnye things can change, but still nothing happens. If you close the settings, and then re-open, cross izcheeaet again, though I may change them, but again, nothing will! By the way, where are the settings? I porobuyu remove them. If not help, then perhaps Efreak's advice about resetting Firefox only right decision, will soon try to use it!

Submitted by Deva on Wed, 02/20/2013 - 09:51yes, then that's probably the easiest solution, to reset Firefox. keep in mind that this will remove all your addons, so you'll have to reinstall them..
also, before reinstalling fast dial again, you could check in "%APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\###.default\" is there a folder called "fastdial". also in "extensions" folder there could be a subfolder named "fastdial@telega.phpnet.us". you can delete those, and then reinstall fast dial.
you could keep an eye on fast dial after installing other firefox addons and themes, to see if any of those will break it..

Submitted by chiaroscuro on Wed, 02/20/2013 - 11:05Thanks for all the feedback
I am curious about a number of things
What is stopping the user opening a new profile in Firefox amd loading only Fast Dial and seeing if he can build up a fast dial with a background and a few cells with urls just to see if it works.
Is it the view that this problem is caused by the reported problem in Firefox 18, if so why not change Firefox Version ?

@Deva

If we are talking about the search panel in Fast Dial this definitely DOES NOT WORK so should be switched OFF
One thing at a time
There has to be a reason for this which can be reproduceable.

since he has "null|border-top-width" error when opening FD
Please see here:

Surely more elegant at this stage to be reseting Fast Dial rather than modifying Firefox ?
Thank everybody!!!

Thank chiaroscuro!!!
I followed in his exile, there found a link reset http://www.userlogos.org/node/5803, dropped settings - did not help
then found the item extensions.fastdial.search, there was little value> 900, dropped it and it worked!
Many thanks to all for their efforts!

Good thinking
So you used about:config settings to reset search to zero
Glad to know things are working now !
Thanks for the feedback...
