I’ve assigned domain names using a custom TLD to my home servers for ease of access.
When I put, say proxmox.server
, in my address bar, it searches the web. To avoid that behavior, I have to specify http://proxmox.server
.
I want Firefox to recognize .server
as a valid TLD. I’ve searched the web to no avail, so that’s why I’m writing this.
I came across this post in Stack Exchange, but the method described (ie, network.IDN.whitelist.
server
) doesn’t work.
Does anybody know how can I add a custom domain to Firefox?
EDIT:
@jamesw@beehaw.org pointed out that there is a way to add nonstandard TLDs to Firefox: browser.fixup.domainwhitelist.yourdomain.yoursuffix
.
It works, but a FQDN (with the imaginary TLD) is needed, that means it’s not possible to whitelist all domains under a custom TLD. You need to add one entry per domain, that is: whitelist server1.mystuff
, whitelist server2.mystuff
, and so on.

I just turned off the auto-search thing entirely. My address bar accepts only addresses and nothing else. I have a separate search box for searching.

Looks like you can add custom domains in
about:config
as a true boolean withbrowser.fixup.domainwhitelist.yourdomain.yoursuffix
. Just needs to be full domain with tld.
