how can i set this as startpage in Firefox?

DanaMW commented 4 years ago

Make sure the only open page is Firefox options. Go to HOME settings then open newtabtools new page in another tab leaving options open. Then in options set the following: Home page And New Window: Set it to "Custom URL" Then click: "Use current Page" button it should load the moz-extension of NewTabTools. If it does it is now set as both new page and home page. 2020-02-11

After an update of Firefox it still sometimes comes up blank but it clears up when you either reload or restart Firefox. (for informational purposes) Have a great day.

I believe this doesn't work correctly if you've set up Firefox sync to sync your settings between multiple machines. The GUID in the url seems to be machine-specific.

(I haven't tried it in a while, though. The issue is already open, so I thought I could at least just post this comment.)
