- Rated 5 out of 5by Feyawen, 6 years agoI love this AddOn, with 1 caveat. I can NOT for the life of me figure out to put bookmarks into Folders. I love the idea, for sorting and OCD reasons. How is this done, how? HOW? when I pull up the menu to Move Bookmark, only Tabs show in the list, not Folders. I've tried drag and drop on the Folder, still won't go in the folder. I tried a long hold over the folder, it acts like I want the bookmark next to the Folder rather then IN the folder. Please tell me how to do this! Thank you for amazing AddOn.
Ps. Extra feature, add ability for a separator so we can group things together.
Thanks!
~ Fey - Rated 4 out of 5by Michael Chelterton, 6 years agoGreat addon, but have to to give 4 stars. Because of two problems:
1. After I start Firefox, the cursor must blinking in address bar. But it's not. So, have to click in adress bar to activate it.
2. It will be good to add transparet background for dials. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 5790537, 6 years agoFinally took the plunge to upgrade from FF v.56 now that prime video doesn't support it and this is almost perfect in replacing my old speed dial (the userscript giving my icons rollover opacity no longer worked). The only issue I have with it is that you can't keep the tab bar hidden permanently. Overall good work.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13268994, 6 years agoIt was so great and nice, I spent about an hour designing it, untill it crashed and doesn't work anymore at all.... Desk image disappeared, leaving a black browser screen, and settings, theme editor is not opening anymore.... Yay, it was finished in an hour.... I was trying to find & delete it's settings in profile folder, but it's all the same black hole, nothing changed.... only Top bar in nice color, but black hole below... P.S. Ohh... I see now, after I deleted settings in profile folder & Restarted browser, Yay was gone, I could start to install Yay from very beginning...

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13471604, 6 years agoExcellent addon.
Yay! is easy to use and easy to costomize, too. It replaces my old "start-page", which was just a HTML-File with a table and logo-pictures. Yay! does the same job with less effort.
Also important: *It really works with Android!* It is not just a PC-Version with PC-Handling (like other speed-dials). You can really use it there.
While the addon is fully operational for the PC-Version of Firefox, it misses some of the functions in the Android-Version of Firefox - mostly because the Mozilla developers made totally unnecessary restrictions to access the bookmarks. (I assume to promote Mozilla Sync...)
Not working with Android:
- It needs a work around for easy adding bookmarks.
- Auto-Icon or Screenshot Icon is not working.
These are just minor flaws. Everything else I tested (add and sort bookmarks, theming, You can also export/import settings etc.) works fine.
Not tested: cloud sync for settings. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14600095, 6 years agoNice and minimilistic. Not customizeable. Slow. not open source as far as i know

- Rated 5 out of 5by Larwick, 6 years agoStellar, exactly what I needed. Simple and elegant with plenty of customization.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14582764, 6 years agoSleek experience for a Speed-dial user. Neat, easy to customize. Only flaw : can't manage to put it as a startup page...
great work anyway ! - Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 13345789, 6 years agoThe bookmarks either do not show:

Or only show in one column:

And I am not able to adjust it. - Rated 5 out of 5by j88iang, 6 years ago
- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 14385381, 6 years agoRecently my usual addon crapped itself thanks to FF update, so I desperately wanted to like this one - and it is indeed very neat and simple. However, this was also my experience: installed it, played around for 30 mins to make it look and feel as I want to - screenshot of a webpage stopped working after the 2nd website I put there (out of total of 15 dials). No big deal. Tried refreshing restarting nothing happened. In the end tried to use the refresh dial screenshot option - which for some reason made my currently visible dial screenshots disappear. I tried to refresh 5-6 dials at the same time, which resulted in instability had to forcefully close FF. And after that the addon died. All i see is a black screen, even after I reinstalled the addon. The new tab is just blank with no options or things to click on. Real shame as this is all I want in a dialer - to be simple and quick!

posted 6 years agoHello, don't hesitate to contact me directly to see what we can do for your problem - Rated 5 out of 5by eriador, 6 years agoVery good Speed Dial extension. Works well (unlike others I've tried) and does everything I need. Also the author quickly fixed a small bug I reported. [edited 17/11]

posted 6 years agoHello, thank you for your feedback! You are right it shouldn't send the screenshot. It should send it only if you created an account and opted for the screenshot sync. I'll fix this quickly. The good news is that screenshot are not stored if you haven't created an account because you don't have an user ID. - Rated 5 out of 5by zclhd234, 6 years ago本擴展網站https://www.yayspeeddial.com/已經無法訪問,似乎作者放棄了Yay! Another Speed dial!,我感到惋惜和心痛。

这应该是firefox平台中最好用的首页拓展,希望汉语用户可以看见我的评价!
重点:磁贴形状(比如圆角矩形和圆形)、大小、间距、数量,都可以调节,当然需要一点点耐心。
背景还支持本地图片和链接图片;logo同样也是。
炫酷的特效很棒。
更多的自定义设置满足你的个性化。

posted 6 years agoThank a lot! :) For your problem, please don't hesitate to contact me directly, I really would like to know why it's not working for you - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13504736, 6 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by darkj2k, 6 years agoThe best speed dial extension. Just one suggestion for UI. When enable show bookmark name, the icon should re-align center with shape without including bookmark name area.
- Rated 5 out of 5by nikoladiavolo, 6 years agoI use Firefox for more than 10 years, and for me this is the best Speed Dial addon available on the firefox addon store right now. Sorry for bad English :)
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14115418, 6 years agoJust what I was looking. The customization options and portability of import/export settings makes this the best new tab page and speed dial I have found. Thanks for making this!
