- Rated 3 out of 5by Alepou, 7 years agoI can't hide the weather, change background, change the links on quick access bar. Works on firefox 56 (not legacy)
- Rated 3 out of 5by darktom, 8 years agoThis addon would be great if you could just tweak it a little more. I wanted to change the color scheme of the weather bar and change what sites were in the quick access bar, but I couldn't find any option for that.
I can deal with all of that, HOWEVER, this addon has a very annoying perk of filling the address bar with an address for the addon. I'm used to opening a new tab using the keyboard shortcut and straight away typing to search for something. But with this addon, the address bar is filled with:
"moz-extension://a7b61c9a-5ceb-4e21-b93f-04fcaa506be2/newtab.html"
And starting to type will write at the start of this address. Using the select all shortcut can work around this, but it is very frustrating. I'd love to see some tweaks made to this addon, because otherwise I'd be rating it five stars.
As a suggestion, and if it's possible, maybe the cursor could populate the search bar instead of the address bar when opening a new page. - Rated 3 out of 5by Eriskyn, 8 years agoThis is a great concept for newtab.
It needs more customization options. I would like to change the quick links available and add in more rows.
The weather option also doesn't work. When I change to Fahrenheit, it gets reset when I leave and go back to the tab. - Rated 3 out of 5by Arcling, 8 years agoIt's better than a lot of stuff but it's not customizable at all. I would at least like to change the links on the page but even that isn't something I can do yet. Would love to see more features get implemented!
- Rated 3 out of 5by Frank Einstein, 8 years agoThe problem is the animation always takes at least 25% of my CPU! So I definitely can't use this while playing games... Is it possible to add an option to disable the animation?
