New Tab Tools by Geoff Lankow

by Firefox user 13458680, 7 years agoThis is a great add-on that compliments Firefox well. Thank you to Geoff Lankow for developing it. To those who are having trouble with the "Capture Thumbnail" feature I had a couple of sites that weren't displaying thumbnails automatically. This is the procedure I followed to capture the thumbnails.
1. Open the new tab page and left click a tile without a thumbnail.
2. Go back to the new tab page, delete the tile and close the new tab page.
3. Go back to the tab displaying the page and apply the "Capture Thumbnail" function.
4. On the same page as (3) above apply the "Pin to the New Tab page" function.
5. Open the new tab page and the tile should be there with its thumbnail.
There may be other variants of this procedure that also work.
Regards to all.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13268649, a year agoGreat add-on. Allows me to have a personalised new tab page with direct access to dozens of frequently-used sites. Does a fine job and looks great.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Lumidaub, a year agoPlacing tiles can be a bit finicky at times and the add-on doesn't always auto-generate thumbnails from the page but other than that does exactly what it's mean to which is simply provide a very handy new tab with my most visited pages and without any unnecessary nonsense (like daily quotes or the weather).
