See attached screenshot, I've seen this twice within the last few days, restarts between. I can remove the duplicates one by one if I go to customize my toolbars, but that customization only affects the window in which I customize the toolbar, all other windows still have 3 sets of back/forward buttons :(
Not sure if this is just me, or just this one profile. Nominating to make sure this is on the radar if others see it too.

I'm pretty sure this is related to Bug 423770. At least before, Firefox was checking to make sure this didn't happen.

See also bug 424600.

Interesting... based on <http://mxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/search?string=unified-back-forward-button>, I don't see where the duplicate unified-back-forward-button entries are coming from.
Could someone attach localstore.rdf from a busted profile?

Do you have Adblock Plus (the only extension that I have in common with Bug 424600)?

I suppose the steps to reproduce could be like this:
1. run Firefox 2.0.0.13 (contains attachment 305153 [details] [diff] [review]) and customize the toolbar
2. run a pre-attachment 307803 [details] [diff] [review] trunk build (beta 4)
3. run a post-attachment 310627 [details] [diff] [review] trunk build
I don't understand bug 425410. You shouldn't see this in beta 4, because it contains attachment 300406 [details] [diff] [review].

this time only within a single toolbar so that we don't regress bug 423770

jst, were you running builds from different branches with the same profile?

It's certainly possible that I've done that, but I'm pretty sure that didn't happen around the time when this happened.
Now I haven't seen this problem again since I filed this bug, so it may very well be that this was fixed already. Not sure.

Gavin, I've been definetly running multiple versions of firefox with the same profile:
1. is it related to the reported problem ?
2. is it something I should prevent from ? since this is the default way minefield is installed.

Probably. I don't see another way how this could happen.

No, such scenarios need to be tested. But you should probably backup your profile regularly if you're using nightlies.

Haven't seen any problem here while doing regression tests the last hours. I used several trunk versions from the last month and cannot see multiple instances of the buttons on the toolbar.

Ok, thanks. If anyone is able to reproduce this, please comment and attach your localstore.rdf (shouldn't contain any private data). If there's a bug in the current code (e.g. post-attachment 307803 [details] [diff] [review]; seems unlikely though, since the bug is said to disappear after a while), I'd like to fix that. Also, please comment if you see this bug on branch.
Otherwise I think the attached patch is the way to go. After all, having the element more than once in the toolbar set is not as bad as losing it (bug 417421).

Just installed Firefox 3 Beta 5 and immediately had this problem. Closed and restarted firefox several times and the backX3 appeared every time.
Comment 21•17 years ago

Doubled keyhole, see: http://pics.livejournal.com/xb95/pic/002ha8dk.png
I installed Beta 5 today and suddenly have two. I have AdBlock Plus, AdBlock Filterset.G Updater, and Web Developer - none of which are up to date/active. I have used nightlies on this machine before, but not since Beta 4 IIRC.
Let me know if you need anything else!

Note I just had issues after disabling the compatibility check and had to disable some addons via safe mode so it may not reflect how it was just after upgrading to 3b5.
Comment 27•17 years ago

I have used every FF3 beta and have a heckuvalot of extensions installed including Adblock Plus which I installed recently under b4 (until then I'd been using Adblock but then I decided I should use a more recently updated extension). I upgraded to b5 today. I haven't noticed anything odd with my back/forward buttons. Hope this helps you guys figure it out.
Comment 28•17 years ago

Starting firefox in safe mode and selecting
Reset toolbars and controls
fixed this issue for me
Comment 29•17 years ago

Upgraded to b5 today, got the double keyhole. The only extension that made it through the update was noscript. Previously I had been running Adblock Plus, Forecastfox Enhanced, Image zoom, and User Agent Switcher. Previously ran some nightly builds around FF3a3-a5. Need anything else, let me know!

I had Firefox 3 Beta 4 installed without the triple Back/Forward issue and,
trying to see if the latest Minefield resolved a FoxMarks beta issue, installed
the latest Minefield yesterday. I exhibited the triple B/F issue in the
Minefield, but not Beta 4 and as a result uninstalled the Minefield figuring it
was an issue with it. With Beta 5 coming out today, I uninstalled Beta 4 and
installed Beta 5, which also exhibits the triple B/F issue the same as the
Minefield release did.

I customized the Toolbars and removed two of the B/F's. After restarting Firefox Beta 5 only one remains and when customizing the toolbars, the additional two B/F's no longer appear in the available items. I like this better as I did not have to reset how I had things customized. Unfortunately I think this makes my localstore.rdf file rather useless as it no longer had the problem.

Changing summary to hopefully make it easier to search for and reduce duplicates.

Hello,
I just had the same problem on my firefox. I upgraded from 3.0b4 which was working perfect to 3.0b5 - I kept my open windows when I restarted firefox. I tried making a new session and unisntalling/reinstalling firefox minus my profile. I will next attach my localstore.rdf and then try removing all profile information. My profile should have been carried over from v2
I have adblock plus installed as well and it was the only working non disabled plugin in my 3.0b4 at the time.

I have attached both files
I have now uninstalled firefox including all personalization and profile information. I reinstalled b5 and now it appears to look fine. Definitely must have been related to some sort of customization or profile remnant

After upgrading to beta five got a quadruple keyhole. I have the Web Developer plug in and two profiles.

I was on b4 and upgraded to b5, closed and saved the windows, when it opened it had 6 back/fwd buttons. I went to customize the toolbar and removed the 5 extra sets. I had AdBlock, but it is not compatible with b5.

I made my own report before I found this one. The search sucks.

on second thought I'm just downgrading to ff3b4, no adblock functionality is painful.

Use
extensions.checkCompatibility
in about:config, set as false in a boolean.

Or open the xpi as an arichive with 7-zip and adjust the install.rdf to show <em:maxVersion>3.0b5</em:maxVersion> under the Firefox section.

two sets of back/forward are still showing in the mac version of beta 5.
why is this marked as resolved?
Comment 67•17 years ago
|
||
The patch to fix the multiple back/forward buttons when upgrading from beta4 to beta5 was checked in *after* beta5 was released. So it won't work with the beta5 release.
Please do not comment anymore to confirm this behavior. This issue will be fixed in the upcoming RC1 release.

I just got Beta 5 today, and got 5 back buttons! Re-installing did not solve the bug.

...and I got 8!!! The strange thing is that I installed 3b5 on two machines. One is absolutely fine and the other gets 8 occurrences of the buttons! The addons I have are Google Notebook and IE Tab. My other machine has no addons.

Each time i click on the Gmail Notification Icon in the Taskbar to check email, Firefox will come up with all forwards and backwards navigation buttons repeated across the bar, in an old school style not the new round one, and does not load gmail properly. When I go back to Firefox after doing this, I have a new set of forwards and backwards navigation buttons added to my nav bar. There are now 4 sets of forwards and backwards navigation buttons in my nav bar of the Firefox 3 beta 5 release. Thought you should know.
