Prior ti the most recent update, an initial tab always connected to a frequently accessed page, which in my case is a news site. The update has now lost that behavior. Is there a flag that I can set that will restore that behavior? Also I have Firefox as a startup app but it has again working. I have it as a startup app in Win 10 and is settings, is there anywhere else that i could be flagging as a startup app?

Since the newest wave of firefox updates my icons on startup are gone. When i click new tab they show up again or when restarting the page. I tried reinstalling firefox & changing icons with no help. The previous update before 141.0 had no issues. I tried searching around and didn't find anything helpful. Anyone else have this issue or know of a fix?

When i try and upload any image as a wallpaper i get this text "The image exceeded the file size limit of 0MB. Please try uploading a smaller file."

i tried with some of the default wallpaper options like the solid color ones and they worked perfectly but as soon as i try and set my own i get that 0MB limit along with the wallpaper i was planning on having just being replaced with a solid white image.

(this issue started a few hours ago for me)

I am trying to add more shortcut tiles to my new page. I have the shortcut tiles row setting set to 4 rows. [see picture (1)] But that is not reflected on my new page. I have one first full row and three in the second row. [see picture (2)] I dont know what other setting to adjust. I have tried them all without result.

Also I have a question about the new page 'interesting stories' setting. At least I think it is a setting. At some point the new page started showing 'interesting stories' in categories. Then while I was attempting to get more shortcut tiles the 'interesting stories' categories stopped. I very much liked the 'interesting stories' categorized. now I have neither new shortcut tiles nor categorized 'interesting stories'

Any help would be helpful

Thank you.

Hi there,

I'm wondering if there is any support team or moderators who are in charge of the Recommended stories on the Firefox New Tab now that Pocket support has ended?

Is there any guidance or point of contact for websites featuring (or wanting to feature) in the Recommended section - like with Google Discover or Apple News?

Thanks so much!

Firefox has shortcuts at the top of any new tab opened. These are usually your most visited pages. For most shortcuts, if you click the three dots you get a menu of: Pin Edit Open in a New Window Open in a New Private Window Dismiss Delete From History

This is the menu you get for almost all shortcuts EXCEPT for Amazon. For the Amazon shortcut you get: Pin Dismiss

That's it. No opportunity to edit it. And if you click on the shortcut, it doesn't take you to Amazon.com, instead it opens "Amazon.com Search" in the address bar. I don't want Search, I want to go to the Amazon home page but the shortcut doesn't take me to the Amazon homepage like it used to. Why is this broken now?

This has been asked before here, but it seems currently there is no solution:

Firefox's default behavior when using the mouse middle-click on an empty area of the tab bar area will create a new tab; I don't want this behavior. How can I disable it?

On the posts I found here, they mention using UserChrome.css, I enabled it and tried, doesn't work. custom styles are enabled but not disabling this feature.

I use DisplayFusion on my multi-monitor setup since years, and middle-clicking a window title bar or Chrome tab bar or Firefox tab bar will move the current window to a second monitor.

Currently with Firefox, middle-clicking the tab bar will move the window to the second monitor AND open a new tab. I use it a lot with YouTube, so when I move a playing video to the second monitor, I get an empty tab with audio in the background.

I recently moved from Chrome to Firefox, but this is driving me crazy.
