multi-account containers as part of "home page" tabs - open without confirmation
I've got my "homepage and new windows" setting set up with several "ext+container links so that my selected websites open in their respective containers : e.g. ext+container:name=Personal&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2F%3Fsk%3Dh_nor
I open facebook in 2 seperate containers so that I can maintain 2 seperate personalities under facebook - e.g. I am a group admin within one, just a group member in another.
I have 2 urls defined in my "homepage and new windows" setting for these :
ext+container:name=Personal&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2F%3Fsk%3Dh_nor ext+container:name=Facebook&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2F%3Fsk%3Dh_nor
This was working fine without any issues. My sites opened up when I started my web browser and everything.
Recently, firefox has started up but my container tabs do not load automatically, I am getting a confirmation (I will post a screen capture as a comment).
Is there a way to turn this off and just open the tabs without a confirmation?

It looks like this was a security issue. You can create an exception for this protocol by going to about:config and creating network.protocol-handler.external.ext+container (Boolean) with value true.

Added that boolean value in about:config, closed and restarted and everything opened as expected without that additional confirmation.
Thanks! 👍👍👍
