NewTabTools as homepage #351

Open EinsteinsEnte opened 6 years ago

Hey, great work with this addon. Since i got FF Quantum i can't figure out how to set it as the homepage when starting FF. Opening by clicking new tab button works fine.

I tried setting about:newtab, moz-extension://972ce4c6-7e08-4474-a285-3208198ce6fd/newtab.xhtml (the id i got from the folder where this extension is stored) and the link dpassos1993 commented in his thread two days ago (newtabtool occupying address bar when set as home page #345). Also clicking new tab button and then setting actual page as startpage doesn't work.

FIrst line leads to the standard FF new tab page, the others doesn't seem to work at all.

Am i doing something wrong or is this a problem with the new FF update Quantum?

Best regards EinsteinsEnte

Your moz-extension address will have different letters and numbers because it's randomly generated.

The easiest way to do this is to drag the text "Extension (New Tab Tools)" or icon next to it from the address bar onto the home button.
