Multiline entries will not be affected by this because they are in a datastore maintained by FHC.<br />To delete the formhistory you have to locate the formhistory.sqlite database file in your profile folder and delete it (make a backup first!). When Firefox is restarted it will be recreated again (or at least when FF tries to store the next formhistory entry).<br />To find the profile folder: from the FF Help menu, select Troubleshooting Information, the Troubleshooting Information tab will open, then under the Application Basics section, click on Show Folder.Stephan Mahieuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03161390175023991419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6721898026723435209.post-85060360594247015762016-11-25T03:25:32.996+01:002016-11-25T03:25:32.996+01:00PS: I know there already is a context menu related...PS: I know there already is a context menu related to the current page I'm on - however, the menu entries related to the input fields are always either grey or don't seem to have a lasting effect. For example, I tried saving e-mail addresses for fields that weren't specifically designed for e-mail addresses, but manually saving their contents (when the menu wasn't greyed out for a change) didn't actually save it between, at least not between sessions (and I assume that Firefox itself retains some of the information for the current session, but not between sessions despite that it's set-up to never automatically clear anything).<br />Ugh, please don't tell me I have to create a whole new FF profile again, because that would really "suck".harl windwolfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17951432127651747893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6721898026723435209.post-21831039600553411392016-11-25T03:11:48.069+01:002016-11-25T03:11:48.069+01:00I seem to experience an issue that causes my FHC t...I seem to experience an issue that causes my FHC to neither list nor fill-in any existing entries anymore. The information panel says there are 13322 form entries (which seems a bit much) and 113 multiline entries (which should be way more considering how much I write on the internet almost every day), yet the list and search never find anything, zero. I tried saving new entries manually but it seems they aren't actually saved (no changes to the information panel or anything else).<br />I wish FHC had a few more options concerning listing, copying & pasting entries, especially mulitline entries. Also, more feedback on the fields it's working (or not working) on, and a more immediate way like a context menu to force or prevent the saving of any input box or form.<br />How would I best go about resetting FHC (those parts of it that aren't saved in prefs/user.js)?harl windwolfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17951432127651747893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6721898026723435209.post-36036146408346946012016-08-10T07:37:51.039+02:002016-08-10T07:37:51.039+02:00@Enlightenment:
