Firefox Community Forum

I would like to further customize my new tab page.

Specifically, I'd like to get rid of the firefox logo at the top, and I'd like to increase the number of columns of shortcuts per row from 8 to lets say 14, while decreasing the spacing between each icon by about half.

I've already followed [tutorial] from y'all on how to increase the number of rows, and another tutorial that had me fiddle with the browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.topSitesRows setting directly in my about config. I have enough rows I want more columns and less space between them.

Find attached the current state of my new tab page, with my particular shortcuts redacted, and the number of additional shortcuts I could fit on the page without adjusting the gabs between them or resorting to a scroll bar. I'm missing out on at least 44 short cuts due to the default constraints, which I've been unable to find working overrides for. Depending on how cut-throat I get with my thin-margins, I could potentially be missing out on up to 80.

I tried following the near identical instructions from both this stack exchange and this tutorialpedia article, to try and get at the problem by modifying my about page's CSS; but I was unable to change part of the page's appearance. Not even the background or text color.

Is the information in these out-dated (the stack-exchange is 7 years old) or otherwise inaccurate; or is there perhaps a setting in firefox which is interferring with these tutorials' solution method.

I have already tried resetting firefox with extensions disabled to check if any of my extensions are causing the problem to no discernable affect.

I have tried the recommended fixes for the issue of History and Bookmarks being used by another app or security. Cannot get it to work. Concerned about the next fix " create a new data base" will be too complicated and I will get it wrong; and really mess up my new laptop. Help with this issue would be very much appreciated.

I've been using Firefox since forever but over the last couple of months, the auto translate subtitles (to English) hasn't been working when watching Youtube videos. There's a thread on the Youtube support site with nearly 40,000 posts of people with the same issue and tonight I was trying to watch a video where the hosts talk in Italian, so I use auto translate to English subtitles but no subtitles appear. It will show Italian language subtitles.

I've gone back through this Youtube channel's history trying videos I've previously watched from months/years ago when auto translate used to work but even they're not working now.

I decided to try the video in Edge browser and to my surprise the auto translate to English worked there. They also work in Chrome.

So what could be causing this issue on Firefox, which started about August time?

This is quite bizarre as I assumed all the processing/translation was done by Google/Youtube so in what way can Firefox be part of this issue?

To be clear, subtitles in the (foreign) language the people are speaking, works. Subtitles translated from that language to English (or other languages) has stopped working. Subtitles translated from that language to English IS working on Edge and Chrome browser.

As you may know, if you hold Alt while scrolling with the mouse wheel, you'll go back a page (if you went down), and if you went up, you'll go forward a page. How do I turn this off, as I have never, not once, found this useful. Instead, I've always found it to be more of a nuisance, as Alt + Tab is how to switch between software on Windows 11, and I switch between software often. Please tell me how to turn this feature off.

Why am I constantly getting the following message from Bitdefender every time I log into Firefox - "firefox.exe attempted to establish a connection relying on an expired certificate to tracker.ads-radiantfusion.co. We blocked the connection to keep your data safe since websites must renew their certificates with a certification authority to stay current, and outdated security certificates represent a ...." Please let me know if it is safe to exclude this warning. Best Regards, Mrybos

I have an Investors.com account and a feature they offer is a stock sector data table that shows recent performance and other information. When I try to open these tables they close immediately, but if I use my tablet with a different browser they will remain open. I believe this is a simple setting that I need to adjust, but I don't know enough to figure it out.

Pleae help as this weekend is La Vega F1. Thank! Erik.

I had already done as Paul suggested, but there was only one profile listed, named Default. I have found the place where the profiles are stored, and I have a private back-up (.json file). But none of this is useful if Firefox won't open the Choose File window from the Restore option in Library. What else can I try?

FF now won't access facebook or amazon websites. FF worked yesterday but wouldn't access either site today. Both Google and MS Edge access both sites. I have cleared cash and reinstalled FF with no luck. Help Please

I've just finished building a new machine and have installed Firefox:

ESR 45.9.0 (OS/2 port)

I want to sync it with my other machines but, when I try to log in, I get:

Blocked By Content Security Policy This page has a content security policy that prevents it from being loaded in this way. Firefox prevented this page from loading in this way because the page has a content security policy that disallows it.

I know the account is good, I'm logged onto it right now from another (Windows) machine; and I was able to log on and sync from the OS/2 machine this one replaced.

So what can I do to fix this?

Thanks.

when printing a PDF in two side mode, the text is moved to one side, I assume to allow for binding the pages. However this function does not work correctly as some pages have the text moved to the incorrect side. I had to use MS Edge to do the job which is something I do not like to do.

Hello, thanks for any help.

I am trying to initiate a Mozilla scan on my iPhone, where Firefox is installed. iOS is 18.7.2.

I begin my login to my Mozilla account, and then in the next window, Firefox (correctly) calls for my 6 digit code from my Authenticator.

BUT, when I "leave" the Firefox page, to go fetch the code, Firefox keeps opening a new webpage, and I lose the page where I would enter the 6 digit code.

I had the WSJ.com as my homepage, and changed this back to the Firefox homepage. This did not solve the problem

I'm exhausted. I'm not a techie, but not a newbie either (after many years).

Every couple of days, I have a day when Firefox tabs keep crashing. Today, for instance! Here's my latest collection of crash reports:

Help me, Obi-Wan
