Hi,
Seeing that my Firefox was bloated with a large number of tabs, I created a new FF profile and started fresh, with just a few tabs.
Fine.
But there is a nuisance: I can not click on links in email (Thunderbird and others): they insist in opening the full "Default" FF profile with a ton of windows and tabs, instead of opening a new tab in the already running FF instance.
How can I change that?
XFCE, Leap 15.0
AFAIK, you can only change which profile is the default one. <https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profile-manager-create-remove-switch-firefox-profiles>
Well, that's acceptable.

Nope, does not work. When I click on a link now I get a message that FF is already open, but not responding. I suspect I have to also rename it as default.

No, got it working.
If I start FF from the CLI:
firefox -P Small --no-remote &
It does not work. If I start it from the desktop start menu (firefox %u), it does.
Well, it is good, thanks :-)
The more correct approach is probably to create a firefox-lite.desktop file in ~/.local/share/applications then use xdg-mime to set firefox-lite as the default browser -- Simon Lees (Simotek) http://simotek.net Emergency Update Team keybase.io/simotek SUSE Linux Adelaide Australia, UTC+10:30 GPG Fingerprint: 5B87 DB9D 88DC F606 E489 CEC5 0922 C246 02F0 014B -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
