New tab setting to load URL

I had the installer of Firefox to make it work the way I like it and the last update added "suggested sites" for new tabs. I recognize what they / you are trying to create new features, but I don't like this feature. No problem with that, but I want my standard page in return she used to load. Details are always available on: config and browser.newtab.url, but he is no more responsible for this page. I removed the details for suggested sites and now it loads a blank page with a search bar. Any suggestions?

Hi, 41 of Firefox, you must use an add-on like tab override (browser.newtab.url replacement), to make changes to the page tab.

Once installed, open the Add-ons (Ctrl + Shift + A) Manager > Extensions, and then look for the new tab override and click Options to set your preference.

Note, if you want only the new tab to be the same as your home page, you can use the Add on new tab homepage instead.

You will then need to restart Firefox for all changes to take effect.

If your question is resolved by this or another answer, please take a minute to let us know. Thank you.

  • Preview thumbnails on the page empty new tab only for some URLS

    When I open a new tab, there are three some preview thumbnails that are always empty, and there is no way I can make them appear again. They didn't work at first, but at some point the three extracts disappeared and never returned.
    I have already tried to empy cache and recharge sites as suggested here, but the thumbs are still empty. It's always the same three URLS where this happens. I have also erased from history, to open new sites and drag items in the history menu in a thumbnail - the same result.

    You can reload webpages and ignore the cache to refresh all files.

    • Press 'Cmd + Shift + R' (MAC)

    1. the 2nd tab does not exist yet in this case it will be the 2nd tab and open the url in this place. Or...

    2 If the 2nd tab already exists, it will launch the 2nd tab and reload the page until the 2nd tab is already at the location of Web site, we want to be.

    But if you say 2 or more tabs open and you run this, if the 2nd tab the DSI not already on the url, you want it to be it will activate the 2nd tab and then open the location of the site in a new tab.

  • Cannot change the url in a new tab

    My Firefox just put update to 41.0

    But for some reason when I create new tab is wrong on my page set more.
    I had a quick glance about: config and now where I use it to say things it is there more.

    I just want to go straight to http://www.google.com when open new tab rather than view more pages.

    Any suggestions on the new 41.0 on how to make new tab opened directly on site, I'm after?

    New tab override (browser.newtab.url replacement)
    https://addons.Mozilla.org/en-us/Firefox/addon/new-tab-override/

    With Firefox 41 (and later versions), it is no longer possible to customize the
    page displayed in a new tab by the evolution of the browser.newtab.url preference
    in the about.config. Due to the fact that the hijackers abused the
    preference in the past, Mozilla has decided to remove (see bug 1118285).
    Fortunately, by removing it, Mozilla has also introduced a new API to bring
    This feature to life as an add-on. This module allows the user

  • New tab can not set as auto white

    Windows Vista operating system. 27.0 Firefox
    Suddenly, new tab has a load of large icons and looks like a copy of MS Windows8.
    Certainly not a glance I could dream.
    Loads of icons - over I have ever used or visited or visit on a rare basis.
    so I do not know where they were selected from.
    I was not choosing this option. I have bookmarks and use them.
    I want the same empty tab is displayed.
    No idea why a new tab should have anything other than white.
    Find Info for that turn.
    There is no option to turn off - only add new tabs, or messing around with layout and theme.
    If these instructions are not correct or I find the bug of extreme annoyance.

    So I tried to change the subject: according to the config.
    Browser.newtab.URL; about: Blank
    However, it does not correct.
    I rechecked and it occupies about: vacuum.
    So I tried to reopen Firefox, but when I select the new tab, I always get all advertising icons.

    So what else do I need to attach to the subject: config to remove absolutely everything to make creating new tabs inbany another way that white and ready to use.

  • How can we recover the feature "Custom URL in a new tab" I had 12 v using new tab add-on?

    I REALLY need because I wrote my own custom web directory that I use throughout the day. It seems that the new behavior of new tab should be OPTIONAL. I had to go back to version 12, because it adds a few clicks whenever I ask a new tab much, several times a day in my work. I used the new URL of the tab add-n and it does not substitute the new feature.

    If you want to open a new tab in a some URLs (like www.google.com or another site) go to Subject: config find/type browser.newtab.url , double click (or right click on it and select Edit) and type the url you want. Whenever you open a new tab, you open it in this url/site.
