New tab. Show only the URL by default; no history

Similar Questions

• Show only the URLs typed in the address bar

  Anyone know how to configure Firefox 6, so that it only shows the URL I manually typed in when I discovered the drop-down menu of the address bar or use the AutoComplete feature? It would be great if he shows me the most visited URL on top when I discovered the drop-down menu of the address bar.

  I don't mind storing the cache of the Web sites I have visited so that future visits to the site are faster. But not a big deal if it can remove history and only remember my URLs typed in. I want it behaves like other browsers.

  You can keep all the features of the AwesomeBar in place including a space delimited by the tildea ("" ~ "") which would show you only the urls typed, and you would get all normal.

  I think one of the main problems is the 3 lines of rich text to show what would be better in a single line of formatting.

  I prefer to keep the full facilities of the AwesomeBar showing more than the default value and watch them on simple lines with the extension "oldbar" (2.0 KB to download), and with the extension 'location bar limit' (3.1 KB download) showing the options (80 results, 30 visible).

  Typed is high up in frecency, so if you have pasted a url in the location bar that would really boost his side 3 times and you would almost never have to do this often once you have a base of good story.

  Firefox does by default. You probably have an add-on installed that changed the focus of the cursor in the URL bar of the search bar.

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

  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.

  How can I disable the newtab most used feature display sites. I want the new tab to open the page displayed in the newtab:url in the topic: function config

  41 of Firefox is no longer uses the browser.newtab.url setting in about: config because he was constantly attacked by malware. From 41 of Firefox, you need an add-on to change the new tab page.

  Here are a few options (I'm learning more all the time):

  • If you are already using the extension classic restaurateur theme: There is an option somewhere (!) in his dialogues of the parameters to select another page in the new tab.
  • If you want to use your new tab homepage: Try https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/new-tab-homepage/
  • If you want to set another page or a completely blank page: Try https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/new-tab-override/

  Setting up substitute again tab

  After installing this extension, you must use the Options page to set the new desired tab page (instead of use subject: config).

  Open the page modules using either:

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

  In the left column, click Extensions. Then on the side right, find the new tab override and click the Options button. (See first screenshot attached).

  Depending on the size of your screen, you may need to scroll down to enter the address in the form. (See second screenshot attached). For example:

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

  Then tab or click this form field and you can test using Ctrl + t.

  Success?

  Once you have set it as you wish, you can close the Add-ons page (or use the back button to return to the list of Extensions of this Options page).

• When I open the Firefox browser, as well as my homepage of opening, a new tab opens in the same time, how can I stop this please?

  This problem has only just begun and I don't know why. When I click the icon to open the Firefox browser, my homepage tab opens and another new tab opens to the sides of my Home Page tab. I checked and none are tube not characters in my address of the home page.

  This seems to take place (e.g., Firefox opens my home page AND a new tab at startup - unsolved).

  In case one of your extensions is in question, could test you mode without failure of Firefox? It is a standard diagnostic tool to disable some advanced features of Firefox and extensions. More info: questions to troubleshoot Firefox in Safe Mode.

  You can restart Firefox in Mode safe help

• How can I configure new windows to open my home page, but the new tabs to open the vacuum?

  I have my browser set to restore the previous session, when I open Firefox and new tabs to open the vacuum. With these settings, I used to be able to open new windows and carry the load of my home page, while keeping intact previously mentioned behaviour, but when I open a new window now, I get a blank page.

  Is it possible to restore the previous behavior, or are all the tabs that are now seen as the same now, if they are open within the framework of new or existing windows?

  You must change the string "browser.newtab.url" by clicking twice and then write "subject: empty"... now the newtab will open with a blank page...» To change the home page will appear in a new window, see how to How to set the home page How to set the home page ~ J99
