There is no built-in feature to select a custom URL for a new tab, only for a new window.

There are add-ons for that. For example:

https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/new-tab-override/

Hello,

I am very supprised to see that it is not possible anymore to customize directly the new tab URL. Consequently, I will strive towards Google Chrome as long as Mozilla persists in this intolerant attitude. Bye Bye.

Hi jcle42, this has been the situation since the release of Firefox 41 on September 22, 2015. How have you been managing your new tab page settings during the past four and a half years?
