Hi, I'm trying to find a way to disable Firefox from automatically switching to new tabs when I click "open to a new tab" (I do a lot of research so I like to open a bunch of links in a row, and constantly having to switch back is annoying lol) but I've been browsing all the advice/tutorials (most seem to be from 2018) but I seem to be missing some of the options? Specifically the option for this preference in the tab settings. Have they been removed or just moved? or is there something more I need to do to find them?

I'm also looking for the option that lets you toggle firefox warning you about closing multiple tabs

(the image with the fb container add on is my setting, the other is from a support site/tutorial)

In about:config the following is marked true by default (in my browser at least): browser.tabs.loadInBackground I don't know how your add-on may affect that.

The other preference you are looking for may be browser.tabs.warnOnCloseOtherTabs I don't know of any way to 'toggle' that on the run.

Note that the setting in Settings (Options/Preferences) only applies to links that specify a target window and if You left click. You can force opening a link in a new tab by holding the Ctrl key and left click or by middle-clicking the link.

These prefs on the about:config page control whether links are opened with a left-click in the background or get focus: You can toggle the default action for opening a link in the background by holding down the Shift key when you use Ctrl plus left-click or middle-click a link.

  • browser.tabs.loadInBackground (normal links)
  • browser.tabs.loadDivertedInBackground (javascript links)
  • browser.tabs.loadBookmarksInBackground (bookmarks)
  • browser.search.context.loadInBackground (context menu: Search)

This pref determines whether to open a link in the current tab if this is an empty tab or always open a link in a new tab.

  • browser.tabs.loadBookmarksInTabs
  • browser.search.openintab
  • browser.bookmarks.openInTabClosesMenu

You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can click the button to "Accept the Risk and Continue".

The Tab warn items in "Settings (Options/Preferences) -> General -> Tabs" are hidden when the related prefs have the default value and warnings are enabled. They only show when you set the related prefs on the about:config page to false to disable the warning. Note that this requires to close and restart Firefox to make changes apply fully.

  • "Warn me when closing multiple tabs" (browser.tabs.warnOnClose)
  • "Warn me when opening multiple tabs might slow down Firefox" (browser.tabs.warnOnOpen)
