Firefox Community Forum

Hi all -- I have to admit that I am pretty frustrated after Firefox instituted the change to how shortcuts on the homepage operate a year or two ago. They used to be so reliable. Now frequently accessed websites are often missing or there's one row instead of two (despite being set to two obviously).

This is such a basic and important feature. It would be nice if things returned to working flawlessly.

The icons on my home page suddenly became significantly reduced in size. Sure, I can tell what they are, and I've increased the text size for their identifiers below the icons. But they are now so small as to be not pleasing to the eye. How can I put them back the way they wuz?

I use the Zen browser and I can't use ctrl+shift+c to view the element, I deleted the shortcut specified in the settings for copying the page URL so that the inspector would work, but it doesn't work, although the correct shortcut is indicated when hovering, but it doesn't work

I fairly frequently use the "Use Current Pages" button under Home > New windows and tabs to set my current open tabs (or pages) as my "homepage and new windows." I would really like a shortcut to do this without opening settings, but I can't find anything to do that. I guess it could be a button or keyboard shortcut. Can this be created? Thanks.

I WANT TO ADD YAHOO.COM TO MY HOMEPAGE . I ALREADY HAVE 6 OTHER ICONS THERE: AMAZON, GOOGLE, AOL, FOX NEWS, SMITHS FOODS, AND CHASE. HOW DO I ADD A 7TH TO MY HOMEPAGE? THANK YOU, LYNN STRATMAN

It's not showing recent activity - only blank grey boxes. And its not showing my things saved in pocket at all even though I've selected in settings to show it.

Im using version - 135.0 (aarch64) - it says its up to date.

On my home page i have 2 rows of short cuts. Then the latest news listings. Can I change the types of news listings? For example one story might be from NPR while the next can be from CNN then another from MSNBC. Non of which interests me. Is there away to set sites in the settings to list News and events that I would be interested in? Sites like The Wire, Reuters, NewsMax, RT, The National Desk, etc. So would there be a way to get those headlines? Thanks

Now i installed an app with shortcuts to youtube and netflix for easy use now whenever i press either of them they open a new firefox windows with none of my info no firefox account logged in nothing like a fresh install and it is also that when that window is opened and i open another shortcut then another windows isnt opened and just a new tab is opened in the fresh install windows

I switched to a new desktop PC and lost all my shortcuts. Changed my password, and not the sync reset all my shortcuts to the new PC browser! What a huge pain in the @$$!

The hours I am going to spend TRYING to fix this mess!

My favourites link (blue star) has disappeared from the toolbar. I can find the favourites link by searching the computer but I don't know how to get it back on the toolbar.

Why oh Why, does Mozilla not allow the full list of selected short-cuts, we the Firefox customers, have personally chosen?

After 30 years of using computers, I would hardly class myself as completely lacking in knowledge about, which works and which does not or is dangerous.

Woke, Woke, Woke. EVERYWHERE.

So im playing this browsergame but everytime i press ctrl+w it closes the tab because thats the bind for closing tabs. This is very annoying so i would be glad if yall could help me out here

This morning I found a new page describing new "stuff" (curated news articles, etc.) and looked around - somehow I have "lost" the links on my landing page....how do I restore them? Thank you.

Customization:

I want to change the Microsoft desktop icons on shortcuts to a number of internet URLs. Unlike with other shortcuts, this is not possible with Firefox. Too many of the same icon are confusing. Seems to me it would be a simple and useful option.

I have been writing for the past couple of days to ask about the status of Firefox Shortcuts and have not received any responses from the Community or from Mozilla themselves.

I just read through 3 years of comments and questions regarding the problems with Firefox Shortcuts on the Main Page when opening Firefox itself. NOTHING has been done in 3 years regarding these problems, even though 99% of Mozilla / Firefox users want the features that EVERY OTHER MAJOR BROWSER already has.

Firefox automatically creates Shortcuts that I did not ask for, and that I do not need. Especially when the Shortcut is a duplicate of ones I already have.

The worst part is, now that there are duplicate icons as Shortcuts, they cannot be Dismissed. No matter how many times I select "Dismiss" from the 3 dot menu, the icons DO NOT go away. So, I have permanent Shortcut icons that I do not need staring me in the face EVERY TIME I'm using my computer.

Thanks, Mozilla, way to show how much you appreciate your users. Especially with last years campaign to get users thinking Mozilla actually cares that they are going after unscrupulous companies stealing our data to use with AI development.

You are all the same, take, take, take, and then lie about what you actually are doing.
