Diễn đàn hỗ trợ Firefox

Each time I open a new tab, it opens in Firefox, instead of my home page. I have my home page set to DuckDuckGo and have tabs set to open to my home page. Each time I click on a new tab, it goes to Firefox and I have to click on the Home icon.

When I open the start page, I see a number of stories I'd like to read, but once I click on one, and then go back, many of them are gone, and replaced by others, which is frustrating. I know I can right click & choose "open in new tab", but why should I have to do that? Why not just have a setting for that page, that would automatically open those links in a new tab? A simple option would be appreciated.

On another issue, why are so many of the stories I'm seeing today, a week or more old?? I don't get why I"m seeing so many old news, what's up with that?

Environment

   • Firefox 153.0.1 (64-bit)
   • Ubuntu 24.04.4 LTS
   • Wayland session
   • Input method: IBus
   • Keyboard layouts:
       ◦ US
       ◦ Bulgarian (bg+bekl)
   • Graphics:
       ◦ AMD Radeon Graphics (renoir)
       ◦ WebRender (Software)

Summary When typing a multi-word search query in Bulgarian into the center search field on the Firefox New Tab page (about:newtab), the first word disappears immediately after pressing the Space key. The issue occurs only in the in-page search field. Typing exactly the same text in the Firefox address bar works correctly. Steps to reproduce

   1. Open a new tab (about:newtab).
   2. Click inside the center search field.
   3. Switch to the Bulgarian keyboard layout.
   4. Type the first word, for example:   български
   5. Press the Space key.

Actual result The first word disappears completely. The search field becomes empty and the caret remains after one blank space. Typing continues normally from the second word onward. Interestingly, pressing Ctrl+Z immediately restores the missing first word, indicating that Firefox performs an undoable edit operation rather than simply ignoring the input. Expected result The first word should remain in the search field after pressing Space. Additional observations

   • The problem does not occur when typing in the Firefox address bar.
   • The problem does not occur on google.com or in other web page input fields.
   • The problem is reproducible in:
       ◦ Troubleshoot Mode
       ◦ a brand new Firefox profile
   • No third-party extensions are installed (only the built-in OpenH264 codec is present).
   • Setting

browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.showSearch = false removes the in-page search field, therefore the issue disappears because the affected widget is no longer present.

   • Disabling

browser.search.suggest.enabled does not change the behaviour.

   • If the address bar already contains text before clicking into the New Tab search field, the issue may no longer reproduce. This suggests that the bug could be related to focus handling or interaction between the New Tab search widget and the address bar.

Reproducibility Always reproducible on this system. Notes The issue appears to be specific to the Firefox New Tab search widget (about:newtab) rather than to the operating system, keyboard layout, input method, or user profile. ____________________________________________________________ The text above was created following extensive discussion and numerous tests, in collaboration with ChatGPT.

Each time I get my tiles arraigned the way I want them, firefox screws them up, re-arraigning them in ways I don't want, and adding ones I do not want and did not ask to be displayed on a new tab.

And while I'm at it, QUIT re-arraigning things in the settings. I used to be able to find passwords and other settings without having to search for them. All you're doing is arraignment the chairs on the Titanic! Each time I get used to particular settings, you guys come in and decide to screw things up, changing them in ways that few if anyone asked to have changed up. STOP IT!

my browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.topSitesMaxSitesPerRow is set to 8 , but there are still 10 squares under the search bar. is there any way to change this?

Version 155.0.1 (64-bit)

I signed into my Firefox on a new computer, but for some reason my widgets are gone. I have checked my settings, and the box "Allow Firefox to improve features, performance, and stability between updates" is checked off. My old computer still has the widgets, so it's not like I turned it off. Any ideas?

I just wanna play the daily crossword T-T

I'm having a problem trying to download and save a "back round photo" on my homepage, the "gear icon" is also missing at the bottom right corner of the screen...only the "edit icon" appears and its useless.

The spacing between my Top Sites icons is way too large, making the grid look unnaturally stretched out and leaving too much empty space on the screen.Here is the weird behavior I noticed:When I run Firefox in Troubleshoot Mode (Safe Mode), the layout looks perfectly fine, tight, and compact — exactly how it used to be.If I use the "Refresh Firefox" feature, the compact layout returns to normal in the regular mode, but only temporarily. As soon as I launch Firefox in Troubleshoot Mode again and then switch back to the normal profile, the layout breaks once more, and the huge gaps between the shortcuts reappear.

I find the way icons are constantly messed with, every time I visit a site e.g Wikipedia, the icon is inserted in my list. Then getting rid of them seems to take forever.

Am I missing something because it seems totally ridiculous the way the icons are done,
