Is it possible to get old suggestion system back in Firefox 48.0?

With new update 48.0, Firefox shows the domain as first result once again, but this time changing browser.urlbar.unifiedcomplete does not help. So let me ask once again:

Is it possible to remove the new domain suggestion, for example “Visit ebay.co.uk”? Example screenshot:

Follow up:

I found this reddit thread which links to a Bugzilla report, and there is no option to disable it.

We spent time working on improving the awesomebar, and we think we did. You don't like what we did, that's fine, we accept your opinion, but we are not going to throw away all the work just because of that.

Is it possible to get old suggestion system back in Firefox 43.0?


Since the browser.urlbar.unifiedcomplete preference is gone, I tried playing around with the other preferences but couldn't get rid of the annoying "Visit ..." suggestion.

Here are the workarounds I've found:

userChrome.css

This is what I am using and it works fine for me.

If you want to list 10 entries, change 'browser.urlbar.maxRichResults' in about:config to 11 and then use the following lines in userChrome.css:

#PopupAutoCompleteRichResult richlistitem:first-of-type[actiontype="searchengine"],
#PopupAutoCompleteRichResult richlistitem[actiontype="visiturl"] { visibility:collapse !important; }
#PopupAutoCompleteRichResult .autocomplete-richlistbox {
height: auto !important;
max-height: calc(31px * 10) !important;
}

If you don't already have a userChrome.css file, you'll also need to add the following lines at the top of the file:

/* Do not remove the @namespace line -- it's required for correct functioning */
@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* set default namespace to XUL */
