Support DIFFERENT configurations for each folder!!
ElFeniX Sat, 01/17/2009 - 10:36
On the previous versions of FD I could decide different configurations for each folder, but with the actual version if I change olne configuration, it automaticly applies to all the folders and the main page...
Is there any way of changin this?
PLEASE SOLVE THIS IN THE NEW VERSION!
Thank's a lot man for such a great addon

It is especially frustrating not to be able to specify different amount of buttons/rows any more.
The root page settings could be made default, but not global.
Thanks a lot for an otherwise great addon.
Could you please confirm that you are working on different configurations for folders, otherwise I will look for a different addon. (Not meant as a threat :-), just a sad truth)

Please see telega's post here (01/21/2009)
This feature (per-folder options) was initally added by me in older versions, and the only feedback I had received was from users confused by the feature. Nobody ever told me he likes the feature before I removed it. Once removed I received several complaints like "This is the only feature that makes me love Fast Dial". So I'm going to add this feature back. I'm thinking to add a checkbox, something like "Have global settings" or "Have per-folder settings". Not yet sure how to better implement this.

To be honest I thought I was doing something wrong when configuring FD after reinstalling firefox.
For those of us who are not befuddled by the option of having different configurations for folders which version of FD should we revert to in the interim.
Many thanks

Should be on it's way to you in the not too distant future.....

If you are running a current Version of Fast Dial, I would strongly rcommend that you make a backup of your present Firefox Complete Profile with FEBE. before you change to an earlier Fast Dial Version.
I would also encourage you to hold on a little longer, as present Versions are in many ways superior to their antecedents.
Many thanks

Submitted by septi¢ on Thu, 02/05/2009 - 06:23I'm still using v2.11 because of this. I hope this feature comes back soon then I can upgrade to the newer version.
Thanks a lot for that awesome plugin anyway.

Can we expect a new version soon that allows again different configuration for each folder ?

I mean, it's been almost two months and I'd simply like to know if it's a matter of days or months, so if I know I have to wait for july to see another version, I'll stop checking for updates twice a day :D I don't mind waiting, as long as I know how long.

You know it is difficult with an update.
I mean certain problems might take longer than expected to resolve.
I don't think you should give up expecting an update, as well, it is on it's way.
I too am interested in the arrival of a new update, as a whole number of questions will have been resolved, causing less problems for users.
I can only recommend a little patience, without giving up hope. :-)
Many thanks
