    Search engines like google doesn't work.

    Should be in the description that search engines like google doesn't work since its probably the most popular custom url.

    Useless. Only allows the search engines I don't want to use.

    There is a major bug, most people will be using this to have their own start page, the issue is, when you click any link from this new tab page, it loads it in its iframe and dousnt redirect to the proper website you have clicked.

    Unfortunately this is a known issue (https://github.com/MethodGrab/firefox-custom-new-tab-page/issues/1) with no easy solution unless you control the site used as your new tab page. If you do control the site you can add `target="_top"` to the links to make them open in the top frame.

    I've added a note about this to the caveats section of the add-on description.

    In one of my profiles, I want new tabs to open my Home Page: http://localhost:8090. But when I change the New Tab URL to this address, the extension ignores it. My homepage works fine, and I'm certainly not blocking iframes. Do I have to somehow explicitly enable or add an iframe to my home page for this extension to work?

    Local Files NOT supported!

    The add-on never claimed to support local files. Local file:// URLs do not work because of security restrictions imposed by Mozilla. I've updated the description to make this clear.
