EnglishWhat Changed in the Flagfox 6.2.6 Update?
Updated
Flagfox 6.2.6 is a maintenance release for Firefox 115 and later that refreshes the IPv4/IPv6 address location databases for September 2026, cleans up how the options page loads its actions list, and fixes keyboard handling for some buttons, along with further minor fixes and cleanups. According to the Flagfox blog, the update becomes available for update and download from AMO once Mozilla approves it, so availability depends on that review rather than on the release announcement alone.
The changes in detail
The blog post by Dave G lists the following changelog for 6.2.6:
- IPv4 & IPv6 address location database updates for September 2026
- Fixed options page to load the actions list more cleanly
- Fixed options page keyboard handling for some buttons
- Yet more minor fixes and cleanups
Options page loading behavior
Beyond the changelog line, the post explains what the loading fix means in practice: the options page now shows only after it has fully loaded, which avoids rendering a flash of an actions list that hasn't loaded yet. The author also notes plainly that the options page "is still ugly" and that a restyle is hoped for at some point in the future — so this release improves behavior, not appearance.
What this release does not change
The post describes no new features, no interface redesign, and no change to how the extension's core flag-display function works. The visible differences are the refreshed location data and the smoother options page behavior; everything else falls under fixes and cleanups.
Who should update, and what to expect
| Situation | What to do | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| You already run Flagfox on Firefox 115+ | Take the update through AMO once Mozilla approves it | September 2026 location data and the options page fixes |
| You are on a Firefox version below 115 | This release is not aimed at your setup | No benefit from 6.2.6 specifically |
| You mainly care about the options page look | Update for the behavior fix | Cleaner loading, but the same visual style for now |
How to confirm you have it
- Check that your Firefox version is 115 or later.
- Look for the 6.2.6 update on AMO, or let Firefox's extension update mechanism pick it up after approval.
- Open the extension's options page and watch it load: it should appear fully rendered rather than flashing an incomplete actions list.
- Try the buttons on that page with the keyboard to confirm the handling fix.
If the update isn't offered yet, the most likely reason is that Mozilla approval is still pending — the blog frames AMO availability as conditional on that step.
