Show my ip instead of "FoxyProxy: Default" in status bar

Mon, 08/16/2010 - 15:15 — konata

Hi,
 
I am looking for a way to show my ip instead of "FoxyProxy: Default" in the status bar. At the same time, I want a way to remove "FoxyProxy:" for each proxy that I use, to only display the IP or the name of my proxy, because it wastes space in my status bar.
 
Thanx.

That is not my question... I dont want to hide the text, I want to change "FoxyProxy: 176.2.135.15" to see only "176.2.135.15". I want to erase "FoxyProxy" of each proxy that I use !

Hi,

The answer is in the FAQ: http://getfoxyproxy.org/faq.html#remove-foxyproxy-statusbar-prefix

How can I remove the "FoxyProxy:" prefix in the statubar?
You can do this with a "hidden preferenence" (i.e., no GUI currently). Open foxyproxy.xml and look for useStatusBarPrefix="true". Change true to false, and restart Firefox. To undo the change, change it back to true and restart Firefox.
