I-Firefox Community Forum

The articles cued up at the bottom of the start page is a great idea, poorly run. Why are all the sources so liberal and why can't I pick what I want to see? Axios, Time, the Atlantic, and the Guardian is not a balanced approach, even in the liberal world.

I can't find any of the website I saved under add to collections anymore. Is there a way to put them back one my home page?

Thanks for your time, Deanna Carder

bold text I thought I had messed up my Firefox home screen somehow, when I deleted cookies and data (I am 84 and not techy, and not keen on changes!), but now I see that an update has done it. I want my old home screen back, with the 'previous tabs' feature restored instead of the 8 bookmarks that now occupy that space, most of which I rarely use. How can this be done, please?

 I'm using Windows 11

Topic doesn't have an applicable topic, so I chose settings. How do I put bookmarks on my home page as icons with URL's? I chose to put 24 of them. I have 18 showing. I want to add more. Sometimes recent places will attach themselves to my home page, even though they are not bookmarks. I want to click on the icons on my home page to go to that directly to the website. I know how to remove an icon, but not how to add one.

I am trying to get thee group speed dial back that was on my computer today. i paid a bill tonight and when I was done the speed dial went away. I rely heavily on those pains. how do I get them back. I have been trying for 2 hours and can't understand what to do.

Hello,

I really like using the "Shortcuts" (Top Sites) feature on the Firefox new tab page. However, there is one problem: Firefox automatically adds new shortcuts from recently visited sites.

I would like to keep only the shortcuts I manually pinned, without Firefox suggesting or adding new ones automatically. Currently, if I disable browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.feeds.topsites, all shortcuts disappear, and if I leave it enabled, Firefox keeps adding unwanted sites.

Could you please add an option to disable automatic shortcut suggestions while keeping only pinned shortcuts? This would make the feature much more convenient for users who prefer to manage their shortcuts manually.

Thank you!

How to disable the auto-adding of shortcuts feature from history to home page? It's really annoying, when I want to change my pinned shortcuts, I have to delete all auto added shorcuts (Even when the items on the screen are finished, they keep appearing in front of me, and this takes a long time). It is a must feature I think.

On a new tab page, I have unselected "recommended stories" and added four rows of shortcuts. Almost invariably, when I open a new tab, Firefox has added a couple of new shortcuts, bumping two of mine off the page. The shortcuts I've selected are the ones I want. I would like Firefox to stop making suggestions. Does anyone know if that's possible, and, if so, how do you do it?

Your new web site with Thought-provoking stories is very sad. I have use firefox for resurch for a long time & now it is bad. I old main site showed the web site that i used. Now it has only 7 sits that I used. So how do i get rede of Thought-provoking stories?????

I've noticed on several of my pc's running win10 & win11 the AP news shortcut has been added to the new tab page when I have not gone to the AP News site on either PC. If I have "sponsored shortcuts" off and I don't use AP news ever, how did it end up on my shortcuts?

I've added pinned shortcuts to my homepage before, but am not able to do so now. I read the instructions, but am not seeing the three dot icon for the menu on my address bar. I have bookmarked the site and it is showing in bookmarks.

What am I doing wrong?

Don't know how to describe the issue. I leave the computer on all night. In the morning, when I move the mouse to activate the screen, there is a large, 3-panel image with links to various websites. Today's panels are titled "Daily Wonder," "Hats Off to the Class of '25," and "Markets." A click on any of these panels takes me to a website. No idea how these panels are produced or by whom. If I try to take a screenshot, the images disappear and my normal home screen is shown. I do not recognize anything in the Task Manager that might explain this. Not sure if this is a Windows issue or a Firefox issue. Perhaps another user can ask me questions that will lead to more information.

Windows 10 version 22H2, OS Build 19045.5854.

Thanks, Cloverdavid

After using the "recent browsing" menu in the top left corner of FF and opening certain websites from the "import tabs from other devices" menu it has completely broken a handful of websites on my PC entirely, even using other browsers.

The page will load but no content is displayed, no links or media, just a blank white page. This is consistent among these websites even among other browsers including Chrome and Edge.

I have uninstalled and reinstalled FF multiple times, cleared cache/history, hard PC resets, refreshed FF, Uninstalled and reinstalled every browser. The issue persists.

These websites still function perfectly fine on mobile FF and Chrome. I've exhausted website permissions, app permissions, etc. The issue still persists. These websites were functioning just minutes before I tried importing them from the other devices tabs. Something about that functionality has completely broken them on my PC.

I updated (latest Firefox for desktop, but feels like I downgraded) and now my home shortcuts seem to have 4 acres of land (padding), each! Mozilla must think my shortcuts are thinking of starting their own space program or something.

Mozilla needs to stop doing these little things, and just leave them as options. Annoying to have to look through the terrible list to find what they changed. It's why I disabled updates in the first place. Too many changes by someone that doesn't physically interact with people in the real world.

Mozilla makes me mad how poor their design changes are. - Bad Mozilla.
