hello

there is a book icon in my URL bar and i would like to remove it. not always there but appears and disappers. most imposing for me. i understand what it is for (read view mode) but i would never use it.

how can i remove it? I have CTR addon installed as theree is no option i can see in that addon to remove it.

thankyou for your time

Chosen solution

Did you try to disable Reader mode under the Advanced section in CTR?

You can also set reader.parse-on-load.enabled to false on the about:config page.

you are simply the best cor-el! 5 stars you.

you are correct, basic me doesnt go into advanced sections. way too scary.

i went into advance scrolled to reader

and the top checkbox was checked (so unchecked)

and bottom one was unchecked

--- on a side bar note. if FX would consider deploying with option for users like me (who like things very simple and automated) , not to deploy with default ALL these features ON. Rather default is OFF. then give me a tour. i will take the tour at my leisure. less imposing + thus more honouring.

it is fantastic things evolve.. but when your simple (aka me). you just love simple.


Thankyou Cor-el -- you truelly are brilliant! you can put your self in our shoes, us non-technical ones. So appreciated your efforts.
