- Rated 5 out of 5by carlos, 2 years agoGreat extension if you want better experience than the poor Firefox “out of the box” first tab. Almost everything is configurable so you can make its look to fit all your needs.
Just a small bug that is going on for me for some time. I like the option “Auto-hide slides to show background bing image”. When I activate that option, the slides hide, but the background image also hide and goes to black. So, everything on the new tab goes black when the mouse cursor is not on it. When I pass over it with the mouse, the slides with the background image shows up as usual.
Again, great extension, amazing work, just a small thing that is happening to me, I don’t know why. I guess someday I will delete it and install it again and see if it fixes itself.Developer response

Juraj Mäsiar - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12802003, 2 years agoСпасибо Вам за это дополнение! Это дополнение имеет абсолютно все функции, которые я хотел. Добавить к этому дополнения просто нечего! Дополнение легкое (не грузит систему), быстрое, очень стабильное, имеет очень приятный и гибкий интерфейс. Об одном, только Вас прошу, чтобы дополнение не стало со временем "тяжелым", чтобы оно не повторило судьбу отключенного Mozilla "FWD Fast dial". Ваше дополнение ИДЕАЛЬНО! Больше сказать нечего.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 17484666, 2 years agoIm Firefox wird dieses AddOn seit neuestem deaktiviert. Es funktioniert also nicht mehr bei mir. Schade...
Danke an den Entwickler für die Antwort auf mein Problem!
Ich hatte mittlererweile noch weitere Probleme mit Firefox und entschloss mich deshalb zu einer Neuinstallation des Firefox-Browsers. Seit der Neuinstallation des FF verrichtet GroupSpeedDial wieder wie gewohnt und vor allem ohne Probleme seinen Dienst! Ein gutes AddOn - möchte es nicht mehr missen. Bewertung natürlich wieder auf verdiente 5 Sterne!Developer response
posted 2 years agoHello,
Firefox sometimes asks user if they want to "Disable" addon that overrides "New tab" page, or because it overrides homepage or because it's hiding tabs (for auto-reload) or because it's using Firefox Containers. So you may have accidentally clicked OK for one of these popups and the addon got deactivated.
But as you can see, my addon is still in the store, nothing bad is happening (not on my watch :)).
Best regards,

- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 17486157, 2 years agoVery clunky addon. Not a single notable improvement in months yet the dev uses lots of technical jargon and writes walls of text to hide this simple fact. And the PRO features are FREE in all the other addons, but here THEY COST MONEY. What a ripoff...

posted 2 years agoHello,
It's just me here, single developer so there is a lot of work. Sadly the last few months I've been working on mostly "refactoring" which doesn't add new features but it needs to be done (Chrome is forcing all addons to use the new "Manifest V3" by the end of January!).
But that's over now so upcoming releases should finally add some new features I've been promising months ago.
And regarding the Pro version, it's what paying me. I'm working on my addons full time so what you see on my Patreon page is my actual salary :(. It's not exactly a good business to make addons for free.
But you are right that I'm keeping my change log way too technical. Still, I think it's better than just write "Fixed bugs" like many other addons does.
Best Regards,
Juraj Mäsiar - Rated 5 out of 5by AndFF, 2 years agoThis is an excellent extension that saves me a load of time every day. It's nicely configurable, and with the cloud option, your config reproduces across devices. I love the new background pic every day!
Juraj's put a lot of work into this, so I was very happy to make a donation. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 17477115, 2 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Rob , 2 years agoworks nicely, ADD Current page is in Context menu and LIST view is coming soon.
Developer response
posted 2 years agoHello,
You can add current page using the context menu (right click any on the page) / Add this page to dials. Or same option is in the popup menu (when you click the toolbar icon).
The list option will be added soon. Until then, you can change layouts in the Edit group window.
You can find my contact email in the Options page / About.
Best regards,
Juraj Mäsiar - Rated 5 out of 5by RemixPL1994, 2 years agoIf someone used to use Fast Dial or is currently using Quick Dial, this Group Speed Dial add-on is much better technically and in terms of personalization than the two of them.
There is currently no better tab add-on than the Group Speed Dial here. I highly recommend using it :) - Rated 5 out of 5by Demian Kaos, 2 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Morgenshtern, 2 years agoGreat extension. But how to remove "reflection" effect inside bottom of the dials?
Developer response
posted 2 years agoHello,
You can disable it in the Options page / Dials / "No image reflection" (it's at the bottom of the page).

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 17426232, 3 years agoExceptional resource to navigate with ease; your add-on is a great tool. Thank you so much.
- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 14727022, 3 years agoI like it and have used it for a long time (several years); but, it is starting to get too complicated to synch and edit between multiple PCs. I think I may drop it.
Developer response
posted 3 years agoHello,
Please contact me to my support email.
The synchronization should be fully automatic, just make sure you are logged in the same account and make sure your system PC time is correct.
Best regards,

- Rated 1 out of 5by Bill Sr., 3 years agoUsed to work fine, but NOW images don't display on latest Firefox update! No info on a fix! Right now I cannot recommend this addon.
Follow-up comments 06-19-2022. I was never able to recover displays for any of the URLs I wanted to use. Though the displays were all missing, I could still click on individual dials, so I continued to use this addon. I'm a real novice when it comes to understanding your directions...but though I attempted to follow them and reload all the displays, I just could not make any of the instructions work. I've since deleted all the dials and want to know if I re-install the addon and restore each URL one by one to see if the displays will become visible again. Finally, your video is probably 99% usable by a large percentage of your followers. However, due to my hearing impairment I can't follow your message only because you talk a bit too rapidly for me to adequately follow it. Perhaps you might consider a step-by-step written version to help others who have the same difficulty as me. I do like your addon, but having the display would make it significantly better for me. Thanks for your consideration.

posted 3 years agoHello,
Checkout the "Fixing broken dials page" article I've wrote recently.
https://github.com/fastaddons/GroupSpeedDial/wiki/Fixing-broken-dials-page
Sadly, database implementation in all major browsers is fragile so sometimes thumbnails breaks. It happens to some users more often, for others it never happens. It's hard to say why, could be also sign of SSD issues.
If you need further assistance, please write me email or create new issue on my github page.
