What does the console do?
The console in a browser is a sandbox that allows users to test code in JavaScript. The purpose of the log is to display and keep track of any code. Typically for browsers, the console is used for debugging things. If users want to write messages to the console, the prefix is console.log. Most if not all browsers provide users access to the console. The workings of the console may vary from browser to browser but it’s typically very similar. If you encounter issues with Chrome and need to enable JavaScript, we have solutions for that as well.
Quick Tip:
If you have frequent problems with Firefox, try Opera GX instead. It offers quick and easy developer tools, including a built-in feature that lets you check your page’s script. On top of that, the browser is very light and you can actually manage how much RAM, CPU and bandwidth goes into each tab to avoid any errors or freezes while working.
How do I fix console.log if not working in Firefox?
1. Enable logging
If the console isn’t showing anything, it may be because the logs are disabled. Try enabling them and then checking persist logs to remember that setting for each page load. This will keep your console content including logs.
2. Disable add-ons
Users have reported encountering issues with the console and the lead cause being a faulty add-on. Try disabling all your extensions and then running console.log again to see if the problem persists. If it doesn’t, you can determine which add-on is the faulty one by enabling each one individually and seeing which causes issues. Many users reported encountering this issue with the Firebug extension. We hope one of the solutions on the guide helped you fix console.logs if it’s not working Firefox. If you’re having issues with the border radius not working in Firefox, we have a guide for that as well. Let us know in the comments below which step worked for you or if you have another suggestion.
