- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 13931907, 8 years agoIt works but often it is slow. I click the new tab icon and then the tab opens and it takes a few seconds to redirect to my homepage. This is annoying when it happens so often. Firefox should have this feature built in!

posted 8 years agoI doesn't take "a few seconds" on any of my systems and there were never a similar report in all the years. Please open an issue on Github for support. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13891522, 8 years ago
- Rated 1 out of 5by FVBryM, 8 years agoIf .jpg isn't a compatible format for the 'local file' option for new tabs, it's useless to me.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Electrotechie, 8 years agoGreat add-on bringing a little freedom of choice to what I want to see in a new tab.

- Rated 5 out of 5by DRiv, 8 years agoWorks Great for me, Thanks! I sorta see how non computer savvy people can get a little confused by the settings page at first but its not confusing, its just simple. Just click custom URL in the drop down box and paste or type the web page you want and leave the drop down box on custom URL.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13893631, 8 years agoFixes what should have been in the base Firefox - what were Mozilla thinking?
- Rated 4 out of 5by ratabin, 8 years agoHi, Really happy with the add-on. But it does not work on a 32bits system doesn't it? Not my computer but someone else I recommended it to have a 32bits laptop, windows 8.1 and they cannot install the add-on.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Winston Struye, 8 years agoVery good! Only REALLY wish that firefox would let the could clear URL bar and then focus, so I could search right away.
Under the "preferences" of this add-on it states that this is waiting on a change from Mozilla... when can we do this Mozilla? I can do this in Chrome perfectly fine... - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 181216, 8 years agoWhy does this extension need to access browser history to make a new tab?
- Rated 5 out of 5by Keith, 8 years agoLove it! Works perfectly. Now when I hit Control-T it comes up with Google -- with the cursor in the search bar. Thank you!
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13565125, 8 years agoBug: No longer focuses search field when "about:home" is set as a start page.
Please fix. - Rated 4 out of 5by kret, 8 years agoNew version. Focus on site doesn't work.
I use FF 59 64-bit, switch off all adds, and still focus not working. When I use new tab (about:home), and check box focus on site, there is no focus. There is no focus on address bar, and there is no focus on new tab (about:home).
The previous New Tab Override version worked fine.Developer response
posted 8 years agoPlease test without other add-ons. I can't reproduce the issue. Focus on site works as expected in Firefox 59. If you still have a problem please file an issue on GitHub with more details.
