View the article --- ## Updates from our Community Feedback repo 🙏 We are thankful for a community that cares and takes time to submit issues on our [community feedback repository](https://github.com/observablehq/feedback). Here are some key feature requests and bug fixes that we recently closed: - **See the total size of files attached to a notebook**
The files side pane now displays the total size of attached files. Thanks @hellonearthis for submitting this feature request! [[#213](https://github.com/observablehq/feedback/issues/213)] - **Opening and closing the collections side pane now auto-updates the page url**
This means that if a user makes a choice to close the collections side pane, refreshing the page will honor that choice. It also makes it easier to copy a notebook url for sharing, with the desired state of the side pane. Thank you @oluckyman for suggesting this feature! [[#486](https://github.com/observablehq/feedback/issues/486)] - **Collections management restored for FireFox**
A regression that was preventing notebooks from being added to collections when using the FireFox browser has been fixed. Thank you @MarioDelgadoSr for flagging this bug!
