darktrojan / menufilter Goto Github PK

I use menufilter only for this menu. A few days ago the item "Subscribe to this page" reappeared, despite being still marked as hidden in the menufilter options. I then unhid the item "View Bookmarks Sidebar" and was subsequently not able to hide it again (Despite it being marked as hidden in menufilter). I'm on Firefox Version 45.0.2.

I get this on Firefox 42 64-bit running on Windows 10.

Is this category displayed normally for you? I also have Tab Mix Plus and other extensions installed, so maybe it's some incompatibility.

I love how your add-on has helped to clear up all the junk that gets added to context menus, really appreciate what you've created here. Do you have plans to continue this as a WebExtension?

Sorry if I'm simply being daft, but I can't seem to find a way to adjust the settings for Menu Filter. I set this up at one point to remove the "apply filters to FOLDER" option in the Tools menu because I would often mistakenly click this command instead of the "apply filters to MESSAGE" command. However, when I went back to do something else with Menu Filter, I found that I could no longer access Menu Filter's settings. I don't remember whether I accessed these settings from the menu before, or from the 'plug ins' page, but in neither location are the settings present. Am I overlooking something? TB 78.11 on Mac Catalina (fresh install, copied old TB folder from Library for the migration).

I'm sorry for opening another issue, but I think that maybe you don't receive notifications for new posts on issues after closing them. I've left a comment on #15 reporting a problem with the Tab Context Menu that still exists (at least when used along with Tab Mix Plus on Firefox 42 for Windows):

"Undo Close Tab" item isn't hidden from the tab bar context menu even after I disable it with Menu Filter.

I assume you didn't see it because you've replied to #16, which was posted after that. Anyway, after the fix for #16, it still shows all Library menu entries to me:

I got the update today, but the items still show up even after a browser restart:

I'm not the only one who can't hide these entries. A user on Reddit said that he tried your extension but uninstalled it because "Open All in Tabs" and other items didn't work.

Note: If Menu Filter 12 was released before that fix, ignore the second part of this post.

The "What changed?" button on the Menu Filter 15 update notification for Firefox 45.0.2 opens https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/menu-filter/versions/?page=1#version-15 instead of https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/menu-filter/versions/?page=1#version-15

Modify the context-navigation.label in xpi file, reinstall it, reopen about:menufilter page, the label has not been refreshed until you restart your browser.

I've tried remove the defineLazyGetter, but it seems no effect.

Hi Geoff.

Is it possible to add Cyberfox compatible with Menu Filter please?

Cyberfox is my 2nd browser after Firefox, and I like Menu Filter.

TIA and have a good day!

I assume that many people who would be happy with your extension search for "menu editor" instead of "filter". One needs to scroll down a lot to find Menu Filter on the Mozilla repository, and the only result that appears to me on the first page of Google (set to display 100 results) is a Japanese blog. I suggest you to add the words "editor" (and maybe also "edit") to the description to help you with the rankings.

For instance, you can change the first line from "Keep your menus in check by filtering out items you never use." to "A menu editor for Firefox. Keep your menus in check by filtering out items you never use."

It would be nice to have a "find as you type" search bar for us to find or filter entries quickly. E.g. typing in "image" would show all menu entries with the word "image".

Hello,

I would like to have the ability to edit the context menu when right clicking the browsers taskbar button.

I would also like to see the ability to remove the "Ctrl+Shift+B" text located beside the "Show All Bookmarks" option in the bookmarks drop down menu.

Otherwise a near perfect addon.

I accidentally clicked on All Read in the Mark menu (in the Context menu) of Thunderbird and lost all of my unread markers.

I would like to hide the All Read choice so it never happens again, but can't in the current version of menufilter.

Any chance of letting users hide parts of the Mark menu

Simple Bookmarks Menu gives ability to hide the "Bookmarks Toolbar" and horizontal line in the Bookmarks Menu. Please add that to this add-on.

One Tab addon adds item to the context menu. Menu filter hide this item, but after firefox restart, "One Tab" item reappears. It seems that One Tab loads after Menu Filter.

I'm getting the following error: The address isn’t valid

Could this be caused by another add-on?

I noticed there is a new 'Recently Bookmarked' section, I believe it was introduced with v49 and I was hoping I could disable it with Menu Filter.

You've done great work with your add-on.

As reported by a user on the Firefox addon page (review), the filter for menu items added by other extensions are not functionally persisted after restarting Firefox. (The configuration persists, but the actual filtering is not)

One example is a menu item added by DownThemAll (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/downthemall/), the 'Save Image with DownThemAll' item in the image context menu; disable it in Menu Filter (confirm that it is disabled by right-clicking on an image), restart Firefox, and it still appears when right-clicking on an image. If you go into the Menu Filter page, re-enable it and re-disable it, the item then is removed from the context menu again (note: this applies all unapplied filters, not just the one).

I suspect this is due to load order - that Menu Filter applies its changes before extensions such as DownThemAll do. As I recall by its behavior, Menu Editor (Menu Filter's functional predecessor) seemed to implement its changes when the menu was drawn; I'm guessing you implement menu changes only once at Firefox load?

I've hidden some entries from the "Bookmarks Context Menu" category, like the "Open in a New Window" item, but I still see them when I open the Firefox Library (chrome://browser/content/places/places.xul) on Firefox 42 for Windows.

Please update to mailextension ((

If you're here because you want to hide these, find 'Share This Page' about half-way down the list, then hide the separator and the blank item above it.

More info: http://msujaws.wordpress.com/2014/05/27/experimenting-with-context-menus/

Open the about:menufilter page, the context-navigation item be hidden, until the "Main Context Menu" is loaded again.

Then the old Menu Editor may Rest In Peace.

Thank you.

Hello! First off, awesome add-on, Geoff! Just finished doing a review of it on the Firefox page. Coming here I discovered you also created New Tab Tools, which I also recently started using, which then led to me installing Undo Close Tab. Your on a roll!

That said, I've found one little hiccup with Menu Filter. Some of the items I hid in the bookmarks and history menus still show up in the toolbar icon versions of those menus - i.e. the menus from the icons I moved onto the address bar from the customize menu.

This issue doesn't really affect me much at all since I previously used Menu Editor, which didn't work at all with those two menus, but I though I'd point it out.

(I only use Firefox's address bar, to which I added the bookmarks, history and "share this page" icons, and the few bookmark icons I use, which I moved from my hidden bookmark toolbar. I also keep the actual menu bar hidden, since the items I keep in the new customizable Firefox menu are all I usually need.)

Anyhoo...

hi
thankyou so much for your addon
if you can add restore closed tabs in panel history to hide it

View a menu with "menuarrow" and no scrollbar (like the Tools menu), open Developer Tools to squeeze page height, and then select the Bookmarks menu, then select Tools menu.
