- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 17862970, a year agoRE: 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://Developer response
posted a year agoYou 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. - Rated 5 out of 5by Device Problem, a year ago
- Rated 4 out of 5by Speede-du-potar, a year agoThis 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! - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18203154, a year agoWorks 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!
- Rated 5 out of 5by Kevin, a year agoWorks great on desktop. Can we get compatability for Firefox mobile please?

It's technically not possible to support Firefox for Android as Firefox for Android does not have a tabs WebExtension API. - Rated 5 out of 5by Thomas Sears, a year ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by KC, a year agoSimple, the extension does exactly what it is suppose to. 100 Percent!

- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 18174079, a year agoKind 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.

posted a year agoIt 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". - Rated 5 out of 5by naught-y, a year ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by algi, a year agoIt's longtime since I added it and I'd like to say Thank You again because it's nice and useful. 👌
- Rated 5 out of 5by Torchy, a year agoIt works and makes my annoyances with firefox homepage go away! The loading times are slower however, but I know that that is probably out of your control.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Crazy Jimmy, a year agoThis app does just what I needed. However, it was too hard to find out how to change the URL for new tabs. I've spent perhaps 15-20 minutes clicking and, frankly, don't know how I finally got to the page that enabled changing the URL. (This may pertain to other Firefox add-ins, too.)
Would like to donate, but had bad experiences with PayPal and closed my PayPal account. Wish there was another way to donate. Developer response
posted a year agoIt works. Of course you have to configure the extension once. If you have problems or questions, feel free to open an issue on GitHub.- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18122396, a year agoGood add-on to make your new tab more interesting.
