firefox updated and now your logo and search bar now takes up 1/2 my screen, the links are smaller and you changed 10 out of 32 of them on me. and why do we need 2 search bars anyways? who thought this was a good idea or would go over well? am i gonna have to do a system restore and never update firefox again or just quit using it?

This has been asked before here, but it seems currently there is no solution:

Firefox's default behavior when using the mouse middle-click on an empty area of the tab bar area will create a new tab; I don't want this behavior. How can I disable it?

On the posts I found here, they mention using UserChrome.css, I enabled it and tried, doesn't work. custom styles are enabled but not disabling this feature.

I use DisplayFusion on my multi-monitor setup since years, and middle-clicking a window title bar or Chrome tab bar or Firefox tab bar will move the current window to a second monitor.

Currently with Firefox, middle-clicking the tab bar will move the window to the second monitor AND open a new tab. I use it a lot with YouTube, so when I move a playing video to the second monitor, I get an empty tab with audio in the background.

I recently moved from Chrome to Firefox, but this is driving me crazy.

I'm on Linux.

I've been using this method to setup a custom new tab page for Firefox for almost 4 years, and it has worked great: https://jamesnorth.net/knowledge-base/article/firefox-new-tab-page

Navigate to /usr/lib/firefox.

Create autoconfig.cfg:

// var {classes:Cc,interfaces:Ci,utils:Cu} = Components;

/* set new tab page */ try {

 Cu.import("resource:///modules/AboutNewTab.jsm");  
 var newTabURL = "file:///home/james/ff/index.html";  
 AboutNewTab.newTabURL = newTabURL;  

} catch(e){Cu.reportError(e);} // report errors in the Browser Console

Create defaults/pref/autoconfig.js:

// pref("general.config.filename", "autoconfig.cfg"); pref("general.config.obscure_value", 0); pref("general.config.sandbox_enabled", false);

However, upon updating to Firefox 136, I only get a blank page. All of my autoconfig files still exist in /usr/lib/firefox.

When I create a new tab with Ctrl+T, it's a blank page. When I create a new window, it loads the local page I want it to load with the file path in the URL (which it never had before; the URL bar was blank in Firefox 135). So it seems to be partially working.

Any tips?

Since the last or second to last update whenever i open a new tab(to the right) with a video there is a play button where the tab-title is. i would click to select the new tab and accidentally click this button. the video would play. then i click again to this time change to the new tab for real. now the new tab is muted. so the new tab is playing in the background muted. this is incredibly annoying. the play button is right in the middle of the tab register so to change tabs i have to avoid it to the left or right.

PLEASE at least give the option to not have this button.

When I open Zen Browser, instead of showing the home page with my pinned pages and weather, I get a black screen. This is kind of frustrating because I have tried so many times to fix the problem but it doesn't work. I need your help, thanks.

there is a photo of the black screen down there.

There used to be a "Save to Pocket" button on each story shown on the Firefox home page. That made it very easy to save stories to pocket for later reading. Now I have to click on the 3 dot open menu button to get to it. Why would you put in an extra step to get to such a useful feature????

After an apparent update, this is what my FireFox Home Page Looks Like? How do I get rid of this annoying "ad"? I've tried to change this under Settings->Home->New Windows Tabs but it keeps popping back up after I try changing it-- like whack-a-mole.

Thanks in advanced for your help.

I used to have an image (dark, stormy sky) in my new tabs, that appeared as a background to my grid of websites (8 columns x 4 rows). Suddenly, I haven't seen it today - just noticed that it's just black. Can't seem to find where to access the different images. Would like the path to find it, or learn if it's no longer available or if I can make my own. Thanks.

I have used Firefox on my PC for ever (10-15 years). Yahoo was set to be my home page so I can get to my email. Starting 5-6 days ago when I click Mozilla Firefox on my task bar it opens a white (blank) page, no yahoo (but it shows yahoo.com in the address bar). I can go to my book marks and got them or type in a URL and go there OK. But, to see my mail I have to open Google Chrome to get to yahoo and log in. If I'm on Firefox and get the blank screen, then go to another URL from my bookmarks then type in yahoo.com it goes back to a blank screen that shows https://www.yahoo.com/ in the address.

Thanks, R.A. Norris mac10-45@sbcglobal.net

How can I permanently fix the quick links on my new page can I permanently fix the quick links on my new page

Some of the links in the attached image I added. Others that I added have disappeared and have been replaced randomly by Firefox.

The new tab page is a disaster. No gear obvious and I do not have the time to go thru several steps to get rid of a bunch of I stuff I neither need nor want..help!!

Hello!

Is there a way to get the icons for Shortcuts on the New Tab page to update their image to show the pinned site's favicon, instead of the Firefox default icons, without manually updating all of them in the "Edit" menu for the icon?

It seems like they should update automatically, like your bookmarks in the Bookmarks menu do, when you visit the site.

I read another Discussion where they said to delete some favicon files in %AppData% > Roaming > Mozilla > Profiles , but those steps did not work for me.

Thanks!

Something went drunk and now my blank page no longer lists the links i want it to. Used to be once upon a time that the browser showed (as setup) 2 rows of links for ease of access.

Refer to screenshot if i fail to make sense.
