I want new tabs to open with my homepage (not just new windows).

I've set FF to open new windows with my home page. How can I get FF to do the same with new tabs?

You can middle-click or Ctrl left-click the Home button on the Navigation toolbar to open the Home page in a new tab.
You can look at this extension:
* NewTabURL : https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/newtaburl/

  • How can I get a new tab to open to my homepage, instead of a blank, untitled page?

    When I click on the + to open a new tab, I would like that new tab to open to my homepage, not just to a blank, untitled page. I have looked through the help pages, but have not been able to find any instructions on how to make this happen. Is it possible, or am I asking too much?

    You can do that by using an add-on such as:

  • How do I set new tabs to open with my home page

    When I open a new tab, it opens with bingle and I want it to open with Google, which is my home page.

  • How can I get my new tabs to open to my homepage?

    When I open a new tab, I want the tab to open straight to my set homepage. For example, my homepage is set to Yahoo.com, so when I open a new tab, how can I make it so that tab will open right to Yahoo.com?

    Not an efficient way of using Firefox, in my opinion. There used to be a configuration option to do that but that no longer works, but either of these two extensions will do that.

    What I think would be better is to only open your home page when Firefox first opens. To open a Yahoo page later, use a keyword shortcut -- see [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/kws.htm Firefox Keyword Shortcuts]

  • How do I set my tabs to open with my home page?

    When I open a tab, how can I get it to open to my Home Page - the page I have set to open when opening Firefox?

    '''To cause new tabs to open at your home page in all windows''':
    '''I have added specific instructions to clarify exactly where entries should be made''' to the useful solution by Fred McD. (I'm using Firefox v. 29.0.1).
    The procedure is now very easy: just be careful with spelling of entries.
    Begin by opening a new window or tab. In the address (aka URL/location) bar, type '''''about:config'''''. If a warning screen comes up, click the '''''Be Careful''''' message.
    A new search bar appears below the address bar. Type '''''browser.newtab.url ''''' in it and press Enter.
    Below the new search bar is a new header: '''Preference Name''', followed by a long list list of all the possible preferences (settings) that can be changed (one of which is ''browser.newtab.url''). There is no explanation of the function of each; nor is there a corresponding list of possible values for each setting, so before you change one, record its value.
    Right click on '''Preference Name''' and from the resulting drop-down list click on '''''Modify'''''. A small window will open which contains a field containing the current value for browser.newtab.url. Note its value, then overwrite it with '''''about:home''''' to select the default Firefox home page for all new tabs. The new setting is immediately active: close the window.
    This method leaves the address bar of a new tab blank, unlike clicking the '''Home''' icon, so a different URL may be quickly entered if desired. (The new tabs have the unexpected generic title "Mozilla Firefox Start Page")
    Other possible settings are:
    about:newtab (shows the site most visited)
    about:blank (a blank page)
    any web page address (URL) you choose
    The same instructions apply to New Window settings, but beginning with the entry '''''browser.startup.homepage''''' .

  • When opening a new tab, IE9 opens a blank page, not the new tab page

    I change my settings to open a the new tab page when I open a new tab. This works for one boot of Windows. Second boot, the settings have magically changed back to opening a blank page.
    It worked to start with. I only just reinstalled Windows on this computer. Then a few days ago I didn't get my most recent sites when I opened a tab. Changed the settings. Next boot. They had reset.
    It seems as if the settings do not save. I had this problem on my older computer as well. Never found a fix.
    To clear up misunderstandings (there are some similar posts), when I select a link to open in a new tab, it always works.

    Hi ,
    In order to clarify the issue clearly, I would like to ask the following questions:
    Did you make the steps below to set “When a new tab is opened” to open your first home page?
    Open a new tab to your home page in Internet Explorer
    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/Open-a-new-tab-to-your-home-page-in-Internet-Explorer
    Will the home page change back after the second boot?
    Is this setting able to be saved?
    Is this your home pc?
    What’s the operation system?
    Generally, this issue  will not persist after reinstalling the Windows.
    I would recommend you to perform the steps mentioned below and check if it helps:
    1. Temporarily disable all the third party security programs and boot in
    Clean Boot to test the issue.
    2. I would suggest you to optimizing the internet explorer for better performance and check if it helps.
    How to optimize Internet Explorer (Also applicable for IE 9)
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/936213/ro
    Note: Resetting Internet Explorer’s settings is not reversible. After a reset, all previous settings are lost and cannot
    be recovered.

    When I click on a link, I want the tab to open at the far right. How can I do this?

    hello kipurr, you can enter '''about:config''' into the firefox location bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up), search for the preference named '''browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent''' and double-click & change its value to '''false'''.
