KeeFox 1.4 has a new look!

You can now access all KeeFox features from a single toolbar button.

There are some new features too, such as the ability to search for KeePass logins without leaving Firefox.

Most of these features are only possible in Firefox 29 and above but users of older versions of Firefox will benefit from a few minor changes and bug fixes.

Other notable features and bug fixes are listed below:

  • New keyboard shortcuts for generating a password, changing database and forcing detection of forms on the current page.
  • A workaround for systems with badly configured HTTP proxies allows KeeFox to connect to KeePass in more situations (albeit with a 73 second delay)
  • KeePassRPC options panel no longer allows selection of legacy protocol port for web socket use
  • KeePassRPC will bind only to loopback by default, advanced users can bind to all interfaces by setting the KeePass XML config option "KeePassRPC.webSocket.bindOnlyToLoopback" to false
  • KeePassRPC options dialog no longer leaves KeePass in a "dialog open" state (which caused issues such as a disabled tray icon menu)
  • Implemented detection of KeePass and .NET version for metrics collection (as per existing privacy policy)
  • Fixes bug where Options / Finding Entries combo boxes render incorrectly when changed
  • Added KeePassRPC logging to record failed cryptographic operations (e.g. in Mono)
  • New option to enable display of usernames in the list of logins and search results
  • Fixed style compatibility bug that affects other add-ons and Firefox bookmarks widget in FF29+
  • New locales: Russian, Argentinian Spanish, Finnish

Known issues:

  • Options have to be shared with all Firefox versions so:
    1. Some of the new options will not work until you upgrade to Firefox 29+
    2. The options to control the flashing effect on the old toolbar have been removed since they have no effect in Firefox 29+. They can still be set through advanced options so get in touch if you can't upgrade to Firefox 29 and need help with this.
  • Keyboard shortcuts don't always work correctly if you put the KeeFox button inside the Firefox main menu.
  • Sometimes Firefox doesn't correctly calculate the size of the KeeFox panel, leading to excess margins or unnecessary scroll bars.
