*But I found a bug, if the bookmark contains a Split Bar, the entire directory can't be opened and not displayed.
I have some suggestions to improve it's efficiency:
1. The upper side of the Dail panel (height: 60px; width: 100%) is the Up Button (also showing directory paths and clicking paths);
2. The left side of the Dail panel (height: 100%; width: 80px) is the Bookmark Bar Folder button (click directly to the bookmark root directory, and the upper button can also be up;
3. The color style button can be placed in a corner at will, which can have several styles.
To achieve the above points, you can remove the settings panel.
A shorter compact layout (click on the blank to switch);
Also remember the last open directory;
bookmarks can be flatter;
bookmarks can be dragged to adjust the order of bookmarks, and dragged to place bookmarks in other directories.
In short, the Dial panel is divided into four parts at the point (e.g. top: 15%; left: 15%). These parts can be set up in other faster ways, removing the background settings.

- Rated 5 out of 5by ^L^, 7 months agoBeautiful simple and clever extension - Thank You! =))
HOWTO+RESIZE-SOLUTION-TWEAK: Resize Dials with the integrated ''Zoom-Button'' in Firefox.
In ''Easy Speed Dial'' turn the Option ''Maximum Columns'' to ''Unlimited'' ;o]
Here an Example Screenshot: https://pixeldrain.com/u/MLHjm1Cu - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 12763182, a year agoThat's a great expansion. It lacks proportional distribution of tabs on the screen. Fills the whole screen and you have to scroll. Zoom does not help due to lack of tab caption size customization. Please fix it.

posted a year agoThank you for leaving the review. There is an option for Maximum Columns, and if you set that to Unlimited I think that it will be what you're looking for. - Rated 5 out of 5by 𝐌𝐚𝐥𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐌𝐞𝐝𝐮𝐬𝐚, 2 years ago
- Rated 4 out of 5by Kis Albert, 2 years agoDial label seems way to small compared to text in box, it's out of proportion if I zoom in, other than that this addon is closest to Opera's function.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Rusty Trombone, 2 years agoCan't set the bookmark directory (nothing happens when the button is pressed), so useless

- Rated 4 out of 5by Carlos AM, 3 years agoVery good, clean dial. The developer recently wrote "The ability to add and edit bookmarks and folders within Toolbar Dial will be added in a future release". I will be waiting anxiously for this feature. Also, keyboard shortcuts to navigate back/forward between tiles and folders would be a welcome addition.
Congratulations so far!Developer response
posted 3 years agoThank you for the comment! I'm glad you are enjoying Toolbar Dial!
Yes, I am working on adding the add/edit functionality in v2.3.
Regarding keyboard shortcuts, you can use the Tab key to move between dials, which is the same way Opera works. - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13650277, 4 years agoThis is the speed dial solution from vivaldi that I want on Firefox! I love it so far. If there's one thing I would like, is to pull a thumbnail from the site, or allow me to add my own.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 15166984, 4 years agoIt could be great with more options and the ability to choose tile colours individually.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Albert Kolkin, 4 years agoFirst of all, I believe this to be a brilliant addition. I am currently testing it out on Firefox Beta, which I have as my default browser.
For me, there is a serious flaw that makes it less than perfect. In order for this extension to be really useful, I must be able to move links to a folder, preferably within the app, but at the very least by adding a folder or link to a folder within Bookmark Toolbar.
If this is not clear to you, please contact me.Developer response
posted 3 years agoThank you for the comment! The ability to add and edit bookmarks and folders within Toolbar Dial will be added in a future release. - Rated 5 out of 5by grmdgs, 4 years agoLove that it only wants access to bookmark permissions. Does exactly what I wanted without any configuration. Thank you. I spent time getting my bookmarks relevant and this honours that.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Yhey, 4 years agoGreat extension! I just would like to be able to add icons to the tabs myself or have a small icon under the tab

- Rated 4 out of 5by Rico, 4 years agoClean and fast, love that it uses existing bookmarks, exactly what I was looking for.
Unfortunately missing one critical feature to upgrade to 5 stars, needs the ability to open folder/bookmark in container.
It would also be nice to have Thumbnails or Icons as preview but that is not a deal breaker. - Rated 2 out of 5by bourbon, 4 years agonice and easy but cant customize the images like the original opera speed dial. this one does:
