Missing Widgets options

Patrice-Guy Martin replied

I'm trying to add the world cup tracker to my home screen, but when i click the link, it just puts me in my new tab page with no changes. When I click the pencil edit icon, widgets are not an option for me. Is there a place I need to enable them?

Hi,

The link should just open the New Tab page, so that's expected. Let's focus on why you don't have the widgets available.

Could you please check whether you have "Allow Firefox to improve features, performance, and stability between updates" checked in the Firefox Settings > Permissions and data?

That worked! Thanks for your help.

I have the same problem as ftj123 and I also have the box checked for allowing firefox to improve features. Still no widget.

Hello

A similar question https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1587936 Maybe, have you restarted Firefox

I'm in the same situation. Box is checked but still no widget. Wondering if there are some parameters in the about:config page that need to be ajusted?

Had an idea: switched the preferred language of the browser to English-Canada (it was set on French, as per my OS) and now the widgets are all available...
