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've been using Firefox for maybe 20 years but the upgrade to 145 has completely floored me. I run Windows 11 and up to now I've had no problems with Firefox on it.

Alas, since the 145 upgrade I've found that any site that involves static or video imagery that it simply won't load the graphics. It just indicates it is trying to load it indefinitely. If it ever completes, it does so with multiple errors. Experience suggests that it is primarily but not exclusively a graphics problem. Some text sites won't load either.

I've tried troubleshooting, refreshing and even doing a fresh install with a new profile but none of this makes any difference. As a result, after those 20 years I've had to give up on Firefox altogether.

I've no faith that there will ever be a fix that allows me to go back to Firefox. This is sad because I'm used to Firefox and the user UI suits my preferences and experience. Alas, no more. It has simply become unusable for me.

My bookmarks in Chrome do not import into Firefox. I've Tried importing right from the Chrome browser and importing with an HTML file. No success with my bookmarks. I was able to import an extension, but I deleted it as that isn't my focus. I've checked the HTML file and it does have content (viewed in NotePad). I've looked in all the Bookmark options, but nothing imported there. I paused my NordVPN, no change. I've rebooted my desktop nothing changed. I'm running the latest updated version of Win 11.

Please advise.

Hi there,

I've recently made the move to Windows 11, and since then I've been having loads of issues with firefox hanging and crashing. I've been able to correct the issue for about a week at a time by clearing my startup cache, but I did so incorrectly recently and it corrupted my profile, resulting in the need to create a new default one.

I'm able to launch firefox okay now, but when I try to sync my bookmarks and settings, firefox freezes every time immediately upon login. Is there a way I can sync my settings without using the firefox UI in order to circumvent the crashing issues present in the UI?

I am signed up for Mozilla Monitor but not for Monitor Plus. I received notification that the Monitor data broker scan will end on December 17 so I want to take action before that date on the scan results I have received.

When I browse the list of Profiles and expand the individual items (via the down arrow), sometimes I see a button labeled "resolve exposures" and most other times I do not.

Why is "resolve exposures" option so infrequent? When that option does not display, how do I remove the profile?

This started after the recent update. Any time i open more than 1 firefox window or try to move my window to a different monitor, the Menu Bar pops up and left click will be stuck only making the bar appear/disappear. I just have to close the second window because it becomes immediately unusable. I have the ui setting set to false but it still freezes new windows and doest let me click or type on anything. I've uninstalled and reinstalled, ran troubleshoot mode, got rid of extensions, reset my computer. I'm at a loss. Any help would be great
