Very strange glitch

[berlihingen]

Updated to 63, now at start pinned tabs become overwritten by the new Quick Dial tab. It's not like a lost session - tab history shows pinned url next to QD... Any ideas?

P.S. Found tmp workaround: if "browser.sessionstore.restore_pinned_tabs_on_demand", true - new tab not forced.

P.P.S. It turns out, Mozilla made a lot of unannounced changes in javascript handling, so I tried to disable one: browser.urlbar.filter.javascript and also switched off pinned tabs loading on demand. Result: on browser restart, pinned documents were replaced by Quick Dial home (again) but after that immediately closed automatically. What a circus!

Similar problem in firefox 63. When you restart Firefox, the active tab becomes the tab Quick Dial. Video https://cloud.mail.ru/public/5hKN/gaNMHNp5f

I never tested with pinned page... I've added a workaround solution to prevent white page when you open the first FF window with QD as start page, this is a side effect... I'll try to investigate for this

It seems I found a more elegant solution: Mozilla changed the pref extensions.webextensions.background-delayed-startup from falseto true- just switch it back. Works for me, anyone can confirm?

OK, I can confirm that this solution works (Firefox 63.0 64bit under Windows 10).

It works, but it is not a solution. This is a crutch. You can simply install version 0.1.15.

You can simply install version 0.1.15.

I do if you know a good reason to keep delayed-startup true?

I dont know. I myself asked to correct the replacement of the open page, on the CD, when restoring the session. Video https://cloud.mail.ru/public/5hKN/gaNMHNp5f

I also have this issue, but it appears not to be related to pinning, as I have no pinned tabs. Ubuntu 16.04, Firefox 63, QuickDial 0.1.17. I have several (between 8 and 12) windows with several tabs each in my session, and each window's active tab is replaced by Quick Dial on Firefox startup or restart. Each of the Quick Dial tabs has an active Back button, and if I press it I get the page back, but it's very annoying. Is the only fix really to unset the delayed-startup flag or go back to 0.1.15?

Same issues, Win 10 FF 63 64-bit, I tried switching delayed-startup to false, previous was true and problem still express, not allways but there is no clear pattern.

I degraded to 0.1.15 to see if still will happens.

[Echoloc8]

Switched the delayed-startup flag back to false, barely affected the issue. Is there a way to downgrade without building from source? I can, but would rather not.

Thank you!

Seem the same issue as #113 but this issue has some infos... I leave it open

I've pushed a new version, try to update your extentions... I've added a parameter in QD settings that named "Startup timeout" You can set it to 0 to disable the feature, but you may encounter a blank page for QD as startpage. Or increase the value (in ms) and adjust it to your system.

[berlihingen]

It looks this helps to avoid blank new tab at browser start, but does nothing for restored/pinned tabs - still becomes overwritten by QD, whatever "timeout" settings.

[MatMoul]

Very strange for the restored/pinned tabs... I've difficulty to reproduce it because I clear all my data when closing FF and restore/pinned tabs doesn't work in this case... I'll try to make a profil for this but need some time due to the end of hollydays...

[MatMoul]

Just tested on a new profile, my 2 pinned tabs was restored corectly... Need more investigation
