I would like my home page to be the ABC news site. However, the default seems to be Brisbane Qld. No matter how many times I change it to my location, which is Melbourne Vic. and then select "use current page" in settings, next time I turn on my PC, it's back to Brisbane. Is there a way to set my home page permanently to show my location (Melbourne Vi.) ? Regards, Manfred

Hello After the latest update of Firefox browser, the "Add Shortcut" option is no longer displayed and is only displayed for the first time when you open the browser. However, when you open a site and want to return to the home and shortcuts section through the "Home" option, the "Add Shortcut" option is no longer displayed and I have not been able to add shortcuts to my home page for a while now.

The default FF homepage; I like it. It's cool that it gives me a few things to look at the refresh occasionally, and that they're filtered by subject. However there's some sites I don't wish to go to. Either sites that feel like clickbait or sites that have a paywall attached to them. I'd rather they not show up at all.

The thumbs down button does not work for this... in fact I'm not sure exactly what it does. For example there's a website that comes up on the NBA section that is always low effort, bad content click bait. But it's popular because of the sensationalism. I've thumbs downed specifically that website at least 30 times now and it's still a regular pop up under that section.

If there's a way to stop these sites from showing (not just stopping me from going the website through a website blocking app) that would be rad. It feels like an easy button to have.

I signed onto my parents computer that was assigned to a school district and now everytime I open firefox on any of my devices their website keeps popping up. I've signed out of their computer and have tried deleting and reopening my account, and nothing seems to work.

To whm it may concern, Having the same problem as others with homepage shortcuts and Its absolutely absurd - I want FAVORITES shortcuts on my home screen, not shortcuts for every flamin page I visit (mind you, your new shortcuts creation option is designed so poorly, if I sign into something like an email account, it saves shortcuts for the initial page, the login page and the landing page! - Seriously Mozilla??) The box you once checked to save favorite site shortcuts now says "sites you save OR VISIT". Thats just utterly ridiculous, especially when I have set cookies and history to be deleted on browser exit.

PLEASE FIX THIS - Not user friendly in the least Thank You

I have returned to firefox after getting a new laptop, but I can only create 8 shortcuts on the home page. Initially I could only create 5, but 3 more opportunities to 'add a shortcut' randomly appeared. I have selected to have 4 rows of shortcuts and this setting remains, but still I cannot add any new shortcuts. How can I add more shortcuts please?

Hi there. I accidentally downloaded an app "startfenster.de" when updating VLC player. I deleted the app from my laptop but the website still opens whenever I start firefox. I tried changing the settings for the Browser, cleaning the cache, rebooting the laptop but nothing works. What can I do? The website https://www.startfenster.de/ doesn't seem to be dangerous but I still fnid it rather annoying. Thank you for your help! Katrin

I really miss the home symbol (a little house), as it allowed me to go back to the original page- blank. I could just start over without having to clear the address bar. It was way better than without it. Any way I can get it back?
