Hello,

Have Windows 7, Firefox Nightly 32.0a1 (2014-05-18) the latest update was a couple of hours ago. Since then, when I go to Tools>Options, instead of the Options menu opening in a drop-down window with General, Tabs, Content, Applications, Privacy, Security, Sync and Advanced at the top, it now opens as a new tab (full page) and of the eight functions, the "Tabs" is missing, the others are down the left side of the page.

Also since this update, I am having problems with two forums, (both hosted by ProBoards) - the icons for links, video. image etc are missing, the "Like" button doesn't work, I cannot preview my posts, the clickable button/box to return to forum is missing. Others on the forum who use Firefox aren't having problems. I'm thinking it is the update causing these problems because they weren't appearing before. Thank you.

That is the about:preferences page that also is already available in the current Firefox 29 release.

You can try these steps in case of issues with web pages:

You can reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.

  • Hold down the Shift key and left-click the Reload button
  • Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
  • Press "Command + Shift + R" (Mac)

Clear the cache and cookies only from websites that cause problems.

"Clear the Cache":

  • Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"

"Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:

  • Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > "Use custom settings for history" > Cookies: "Show Cookies"

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.

  • Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
  • Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

That is the new "Options" display, added in today's Nightly when you go to open Options. "Tabs" preferences are on the "General" panel.

Note that this is controlled by the browser.preferences.inContent pref on the about:config page that had its default value changed from false to true.

  • bug 738797 - Enable the in-content preferences by default
