  • Improved Logging — see URLs that matched blacklist patterns and URLs that didn't match anything are now in their own section.
  • Patterns mode now exists even if there are no white patterns defined. This was the behavior of FoxyProxy before 7.x. Its absence when no white patterns are defined makes sense (no proxy will ever be used), but has been a source of tremendous confusion. Discussed at #49 but also many other places.
  • When adding a new proxy, Add whitelist pattern to match all URLs is now on by default. Discussed at #49.
  • On the patterns window, added new button for Add whitelist pattern to match all URLs similar to the existing button Add black patterns to prevent this proxy being used for localhost & intranet/private IP addresses.
  • Patterns Cheat Sheet improvements — more examples and text explaining that blacklist patterns take precedence over whitelist patterns.
  • Change an i18n key name so it works in chrome, too (chrome does not allow periods in key names).
  • Remove unneeded console log messages.
  • Faster deletion of patterns (faster animation)

7.4.2 Basic -- 2019-12-10

These are the notes from 7.4.2 that are relevant to FoxyProxy Basic (all points about patterns removed):

  • Change an i18n key name so it works in chrome, too (chrome does not allow periods in key names).
  • Remove unneeded console log messages.

7.4.1 Standard -- 2019-10-19

  • Escape button works to close the current FoxyProxy window and return to the previous (if there is a previous).
  • Dialog box color changes for consistency
  • Import optimizations and increase on import file size from 5 MB to 10 MB
  • Show help text if no proxy settings are defined; hide all proxy selectors too including 'turn off'.
  • Fixes so that FoxyProxy Basic can share the same codebase as FoxyProxy Standard again. Version number alignment: for the first time since FoxyProxy Basic
    was introduced, it will share the same version number as FoxyProxy Standard.
  • Exported settings now include FoxyProxy edition -- Standard or Basic. However, they are interchangeable. This is for easier debugging of problems.
  • Removed link to https://forums.getfoxyproxy.org. We are shutting the forums down. People just don't use forums anymore; we only get spam there. And have many other support channels: email, ticket system, github, facebook, twitter, chat, etc.

  • Now works with Firefox Nightly 71.x and Beta 71.x. Minimum Firefox version is now 60.0.
  • Toolbar icon now changes with proxy use, just like version 6.x and earlier (patterns mode only). If there are no matches, a gray icon is displayed with red text 'No Match'.
  • Logging improvements; log now displays unmatched URLs just like version 6.x and earlier. This makes it obvious which URLs you may want to write patterns for.
  • UI Improvements
  • Performance improvements for authentication.
  • Ensure new proxies are added to the top of the list when created.
  • Remove migration code which seems to cause errors for some people; migration from very old versions now gone.
  • Do not display pattern shortcuts (match all URLs, don't match localhost & intranet IPs) when editing a proxy setting, just like 6.x and earlier. Showing these created a lot of confusion for some users. Sorry!
  • Pattern Cheat Sheet on pattern-related pages.
  • Bug fixes when importing legacy foxyproxy.xml settings (FoxyProxy 4.x and earlier).
  • Show patterns buttons when adding Direct (no proxy) setting. Fixed some minor UI bugs when using Direct (no proxy).
  • Added browser and extension version numbers to export for debugging of exported settings submitted by users. It will be useful also in the future as the fileformat matures and changes, as it has many times over the years.
