    This issue is not related to New Tab Override at all. It's a known Firefox bug that can happen under certain circumstances.

    Thanks for the great rating!

    All good and functional. Only feedback I'd give is for it not to bring me to my selected page when I open a new tab with ctrl+shift+T which is when I want to bring back a previous page and not have it be overtaken by the tab homepage :)

    RE: Thank you for addressing the issue. Before rating the extension, I unpacked it and looked at the code. It didn't make any sense to me why it had that as part of validation.

    Thanks a lot, Sören.

    Can't set custom homepage with custom protocol e.g. moz-extension://

    You can use moz-extension:// URIs now. In the future, please request features via appropriate channels instead of abusing the review system. Maybe you want to consider a better review now as your only point of criticism was addressed.

    Does exactly what it says it does, 10/10

    This Add-on can't decipher characters with French accents. Too bad.

    And when he opens my page, there's a big frame all around it, which takes up too much space on a small screen!

    Works just as described. In the options I pasted in the page I wanted to load on each new tab, and now it's just click and there it is. Thanks!

    Works great on desktop. Can we get compatability for Firefox mobile please?

    Developer response

    Thank you!

    It's technically not possible to support Firefox for Android as Firefox for Android does not have a tabs WebExtension API.

    Simple, the extension does exactly what it is suppose to. 100 Percent!

    Kind of useless if the URL isn't automatically selected in a new tab. Having to ctlr+a and delete the url in each new tab before being able to type is not very helpful.

    It would be nice if you would ask before giving bad reviews for add-ons since what you want is not possible at all for WebExtensions. As there is no way to this, it's not fair to get a bad review for that reason. And by the way, 70,000 other users don't think that the add-on is "useless".
