Copying the code of this old post (from 9 years, 8 months and 24 days ago ) I create a hotkey to show/hide the bookmarks toolbar, and it works... but sometimes it gets glitched (the bookmarks "disappear")
The problem is "fixed" if you "manually" activate the toolbar (via right click > show bookmarks toolbar)

The code is the same.

Code: Select all

var toolbar = document.getElementById("PersonalToolbar");
toolbar.collapsed = !toolbar.collapsed;
document.persist(toolbar.id, "collapsed");

Does anyone know how to fix it? Maybe Firefox changed a little bit in almost 10 years!

Code: Select all

var toolbar = document.getElementById("PersonalToolbar");
var visibility = toolbar.collapsed;
setToolbarVisibility(toolbar, visibility);

Thanks again Morat, it worked.

How can I do this?

1. Go to the address bar = openLocation();
2. Add "&tbs=qdr:d3" at the end of the url = ???
3. Update the url = ???

The result is supposed to restrict an existing Google Search to the last three days.
Any idea?

Try this:

Code: Select all

gURLBar.value += "&tbs=qdr:d3";
gURLBar.handleCommand();

That was very helpful.
Thank you, Morat!!!

Hello,

I'm a bit afraid to ask but what happens after the release of FF57 and will there or is there an alternative?

Nope. And an alternative (for the addon) is impossible.

That's a real shocker cause not only i learned to love this addon but my mother kinda needs it, at least something similar. She had a stroke last year and she needs something that allowed me (her) to control several function bound to one key at once.

Then stay on FF56, or a custom build of FF56 that doesn't auto update . eg: https://sourceforge.net/projects/lawlie ... ease/56.x/

Don't kill the discussion. We need a Quantum successor!!!

I already switched to the ESR branch because I espected there would be no solution the day FF57 launched. But I for sure didn't expect no solution forever. As far as I know the ESR version is only a solution for the next six months.

What I don't understand so far, will there just be no new keyconfig version, is there no alternative addon or is it completely impossible to achieve what keyconfig did under the new FF?

As far as I know the webextension API doesn't provide anything to manipulate hotkeys and that sort of low level modding. (Someone'll correct me if I'm wrong.)
