- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13533069, 7 years agoJ'utilisais Speed Dials avant que Firefox ne passe à la version Quantum et que le module devienne obsolète. Ce module le remplace parfaitement et ajoute d'autres possibilités pratiques.
Cependant, deux choses me chiffonnent : 1) La miniature ne se crée pas toujours et laisse un carré blanc. 2) Le lien pour définir la page en temps que page d'accueil change souvent ce qui m'oblige à copier le nouveau lien et à redéfinir la page d'accueil.
English :
I used Speed Dials before Firefox update to Quantum and make it obsolete. This add-on replaces it very well and add some features.
However, there are two things that bother me : 1) The thumbnails aren't always created. There is a white square instead. 2) The home page link change often ! I have to copy the new link and set it as home page again. It is very annoying. - Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 13511339, 7 years agoVersion 7.6 messed up my previous dial-thumbnails. ALL OF THEM got a white border on top (setting: No title on dials), even they are all set up to be "centered" (dial ratio: fix 1×1). With version 7.5 they looked fine. Hope this will be fixed very, very soon! Thanks.
Edit: I found out, if "No title on dials" and ALSO "Dial names on bottom" is activated, you can avoid this bug.
BTW: I am expecting on "Refresh dials" to reload and refresh MY "Custom stored thumbnail file" (if chosen) and not to rebuild the dials with a web page preview!
P.S. Dial ratio seems to be changed again, but sadly not to be exact square (in v7.5 the were 256×246, in v7.6 they are now 256×249).
Is it so difficult to make them "at least" exact square (1:1, e. g. 256×256, 128×128 etc) if "dial ratio" is set "fix: 1×1?
Now – to avoid the white border – I have to edit all my customized thumbs. Too bad!

Padrocker
Edit 2 (after bug fix 7.7):
Many thanks to the developer, who instantly fixed the bug described in my review (well, it still appears, if you use the "No title on dials" in combination with "Dial names on bottom" activated – then on the bottom).
Anyway, it works for me now, deactivating "Dial names on bottom".
For his (developer's) very fast bug fix (within 1-2 hours!) I am updating my rating to 3.5 stars.
But It's still not understandable, why WE cannot have such a SIMPLE THING like REAL "square thumbs", and why the author uses really exotic thumbs' ratios, that even seem to change between versions – instead of making them simply SQUARE! (like most of all other programs/apps in a similar context do). Should all users edit all their customized image files on every GSD update? That's not very handy, isn't it.
Although I am quite happy for the add-on itself, substituting the out-dated "Speed Dial" (by Josep del Rio).
Kind regards,

posted 7 years agoThis add-on is FREE. The Pro version contains only few bonus features that you most probably don't need at all. The 60 days trial is for that. After the trial you will be converted back to FREE Home version.- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13684439, 7 years agoThis addon is really good and useful. I've been using this addon for years. I really like the cloud backup. But loading firefox after every windows restart is really slow. It takes close to a minute for the dials to load. I dont have this problem with older versions of firefox before, just with the latest ones. Can you please fix this problem? Thank you for this excellent addon!

posted 7 years agoHello,
Please make sure you are NOT using Cloud-dials page as your homepage - instead set it up using the proper add-on URL. Just follow the steps written in Options page / first tab / first line.
The Cloud-dials web-page (https://group-speed-dial.fastaddons.com/dials) is meant to be used on unsupported browsers or in your phone.
If you setup homepage using the steps in Options page, you should get proper fast responses.
If opening new tab with dials takes more than half a second, something is wrong.
Please let me know to my support e-mail if you have more issues.
Have a nice day :)

- Rated 3 out of 5by Akser, 7 years agoВ темной версии один большой минус - это белый градиент и обводка тоже уродского вида. И самое печальное, не настроить самому на нормальный опрятный вид. А вот в светлой это тень и смотрится нормально, не пойму зачем было инверсировать и тень в белый колхозный градиент...

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13668769, 7 years agoPerfektné, vôbec som netušil, že autor je Slovák a to tutohľa od vedľa. Každopádne klobúk dolu, rozšírenie je úplne super. Jediné kt. vyhovuje mojim požiadavkám po "veľkej" aktualizácii firefoxu.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13015361, 7 years agoKlasse, endlich wieder "fast" wie das Original. Es wäre aber schön, wenn Groups nur im ersten Tab erscheinen würde und nicht in jedem, so wie das bei Speed-Dial vorher auch war.

-> Gibt es eine Möglichkeit, wie im alten, nicht mehr weiter entwickelten Viewmarks [benutze bis Dato NUR wegen Viewmarks den alten Firefox Portable v42] das ganz normale Lesezeichenmenü zu importieren und somit gleichzeitig auch jene Lesezeichenmenü-Struktur (samt ALLEN Ordnern und Unterordnern usw.) in "Group Speed Dial" zu bekommen, OHNE alles selber per Hand einlesen/einrichten zu müssen?
Wenn ja, wären das locker 7 Sterne von mir. ;')
Ich bitte hiermit um Antwort bzw. Implementierung dieser "Importierungsoption".
Danke und LGDeveloper response
