Reviews for Group Speed Dial
Group Speed Dial by Juraj Mäsiar

Rated 2 out of 5
by Firefox user 13568799, 7 years agoMain issues I have with this add on are: Refresh all dials and refresh dial in general. Unlike the former Speedail, GSP fail to refresh dials correctly. Refreshing as group or all dials results in partially refreshed dials or a dial with data (images and text) that belongs to a different dial. The other issue I ran into is when opening a new tab. GSP causes two dials to open at the same time in the address bar (one showing GSP extension link in address bar and one blank) and after a delay it closes. So you have to wait until it closes before entering any info; like when doing a google search for instance. SpeeDial had another nice feature that allowed the user to set auto refresh dials (every 10 min, an hour etc), that I would love to see here. Thanks!
Update: Removed on 07/12 due to too many issues. Tip: remnants of removed add ons stay for ever unless you manually remove them. Log into about: config, type extensions, reset every add on you had removed for good and restart your browser.

posted 7 years agoHello,
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,
Juraj Mäsiar

- Rated 5 out of 5by mikwei, 19 days agoNever an issue, works on all browsers and OS's, sync sometimes slow, but a cloud access as well so you don't need to sync everywhere. Support has been great, and really it never fails. Some offer some better widget add-on but find this functions better/faster and very customizable.

Juraj Mäsiar - Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 15944772, 2 months agoCrashes Firefox every night. I love this add on and have been using it for years, but finally isolated the persistent crashes to this specific add-on. I will have to disable it and look for an alternative. Would be five stars if it was stable.

posted 2 months agoHello,
Could you write me email (admin@fastaddons.com) with more details please? I would live to investigate this.
For example, is your PC running all night? And do you have "Auto-reload" enabled in some of your dials? There have been cases when auto-reload would fail if monitor disconnects itself when monitor goes to sleep but PC is still running.
But in any case, addons should not be possible to crash the browser, so sounds interesting.
Please let me know.

Right click group name or open main menu and select "Edit group".
There you can change dimensions / layout.
The PRO feature for dial resize applies only to single dial. It should be less confusing in the upcoming release :)

Is there some error message?
Unless you are using some very old Firefox, everything should work.
Maybe this article will help:
