  • How to change the new tab Page in the menu of tiles?

    I want tiles on my new page tabs instead of page white or any other search engine. Help, please

    "Out of the box", new Firefox tab page shows tiles, based on your history, and you can replace with other sites if you wish.

    Here's how you can change your new tab page:

    (1) in a new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press ENTER. Click on the button promising to be careful.

    (2) in the search above the list box, type or paste newtab and make a pause so that the list is filtered

    (3) double-click the preference browser.newtab.url and enter your favorite page:

    • (Default) page thumbnails = > subject: newtab
    • Blank tab = > subject: empty
    • Built-in Firefox homepage = > topic: welcome
    • Any other page = > full URL of the page

    Press Ctrl + t to open a new tab and check that it worked. Fixed?

    The new integrated tab page, the "gear" icon should provide both classic and enhanced, that show tiles.

    If the problems persist, some potential diagnoses and remedies:

    If Firefox will not let you change this setting: you can have what is called SearchProtect on your system. This must be removed the control panel.

    Firefox if allows you to save your changes, but he doesn't know: one of your extensions may be the substitution of her. You can consult, disable and/or remove extensions on page modules. Either:

    • CTRL + SHIFT + a
    • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons

    In the left column, click Extensions. Then, take a critical look on the list on the right and turn off (or remove) something unknown.

    If the modification works during your session, but during the next startup is return to the unwanted page: you could have a user.js file in your personal settings Firefox (your Firefox profile folder).

  • How can I get the start page to access my HR projects?

    I use RH8 and IE7.

    I have a start page which is just an html page, not created in Robohelp. It is basically a table of contents that links to about 10 HR projects.

    I create my HR projects and put them in the same folder, but each project has its own subfolder. The structure looks like this:

    c:/RHGen82/NewFolder/Project1.htm

    c:/RHGen82/newfolder2/Project2.htm

    I got my start page in this folder (not created HR):

    c:/RHGen82/mainpage/mainpage.htm

    When I create links on my main page to project, everything works fine on my computer.

    I take all the RHGen82 file and put it on another computer C drive. It does not work. The link goes to... /RHGen82/NewProject/Project1.htm and I think that it work, but it does not work.

    I have read your Webhelp calling using URL and I think that perhaps my answer, but I do not understand what I read. Can you shed some light?

    Yes, we could have used fusion projects, but is not what management wants.

    Any help is appreciated with gratitude.

    Hi Pat.

    With your existing directpry structure links must be:

    c:/RHGen82/NewFolder/Project1.htm

    c:/RHGen82/newfolder2/Project2.htm

    This is because projects are located outside the structure of directories of your start page. If you were to use the following directory structure:

    c:/RHGen82/mainpage/mainpage.htm

    c:/RHGen82/mainpage/Project1/Project1.htm

    c:/RHGen82/mainpage/Project2/Project2.htm

    you would be able to use the link syntax:

    Project1/project1.htm

    Project2/project2.htm

    I want to be able to use StartPage instead of Google, when I type something in the URL space and I want StartPage to my default home page (already), looking little box by default (already is) and search engine by default (which is not the case).

    Thank you!

    See:

    Note that starting with Firefox 23, it will be possible to specify the search engine for the address bar via the keyword. URL pref.

    The search engine used in the address bar Firefox 23 + is the search engine that is selected in the search bar.

    You can consider using a keyword (letter) for the search using the address bar.

    You can define a keyword for a search engine that is installed through the Manage search engines (click the icon to search on the search bar engine).
