od uživatele Uživatel Firefoxu - 6696096, před 7 letyThe Addon does the job, but the workflow with the address bar is far from perfect.
When you use "custom url" the addon makes the address bar unusable for the time it takes the browser to completely load the page defined in "custom url".
Let's say my "custom url" is "A".
I open the new tab and start typing the address "B" in the address bar (different from custom url).
1) If the page "A" loads before I finish typing url "B" all my typing was useless, because the addon overwrites my typed url "B" with "A". Or concatenates B+A (more often). I have to start over.
2) If I finish typing url "B" quicker then the addon loads the page "A" (custom url) and press Enter, in most cases the browser ignores my actions. And again, the addon overwrites my typed url "B" with "A". Or concatenates B+A (more often). And again I have to start over.
The only way to cope with this task is to hit ESC key right after Ctrl+T combination, to prevent Firefox from loading the page in the new tab.
As some people said before, it would be better, if the addon would leave the clean address bar and wouldn't mess with user typing. Manual URL entering should have priority over "custom url" loading.
If I want the defined "custom url" to load I would wait for the tab to load. But if I type the URL myself, don't reset the address bar, don't overwrite my entered text.
It's just getting on my nerves. But unfortunately my favorite bookmark-site doesn't have the Firefox addon, so I have to use some middleman-addon like New Tab Override. And the process reminds me of the windows 98 setup, where if to paraphrase they would say "sit back and relax while Firefox+NewTabOverride load the page. Then and only then you will be able to use the address bar to go to some other page"

if you have your CPU heavy loaded with some background task you can see the whole workflow:
Let's say I want to use some "search shortcut" ( "y" for YouTube)
1) I open new tab,
2) quickly type "y trailers" and hit ENTER (to go to YouTube and look for movie trailers)
3) Firefox starts to load YouTube search page
4) "New Tab Override" stops the process and loads the "custom url" instead

- Hodnocení: 4 z 5od uživatele joefiesta, před měsícemIt was working fine. But, no longer. I have chosen custom URL (https ://www google com /advanced_search). It doesn't go there upon opening new tab.
It may have been updating firefox to 136.0.4. (spaces added to URL - review does not allow otherwise)
EDIT: Okay, now I got it work. I had to uninstall it and re-install. Something Firefox did somewhere broke it, but I can't say what. I certainly never touched it. - Hodnocení: 5 z 5od uživatele Uživatel Firefoxu - 18382956, před měsícemgive me the feature i miss in vanilla firefox

It was a feature in „vanilla Firefox“ in the past, but it was abused by bad players and therefore Mozilla was forced to remove the option. But at the same time they gave extension developers the ability. So we have to be thankful to Mozilla. - Hodnocení: 5 z 5od uživatele Uživatel Firefoxu - 17434746, před 2 měsíciThe Bets! But, I can't donate through paypal cus they charge a fee! Suggest Venmo or other donation platform because PayPal is also run by APartheid NaXis!

It was possible several years ago, but Mozilla had to take this option from Firefox because hijacking was a real problem at that time. But we should be thankful, because Mozilla provided a WebExtension API on the first time when they removed this option. - Hodnocení: 5 z 5od uživatele Uživatel Firefoxu - 18771567, před 4 měsíci

- Hodnocení: 5 z 5od uživatele Jacksaur, před 6 měsíciWorks perfectly. The option to change auto-focus from the address bar to the webpage is an awesome feature too, makes it much easier to use the search bar in Glance as a new tab page!

- Hodnocení: 5 z 5od uživatele Uživatel Firefoxu - 13449591, před 6 měsíciIch finde die Erweiterung Top, aber seit einiger Zeit fällt mir auf, dass der Fokus bei meiner Startseite startpage.com nicht mehr auf die Suchleiste gesetzt wird, obwohl die Option "Fokus auf Webseite statt in Adressleiste setzen" aktiviert ist. Geht das nur mir so, oder ist das ein Bug?

zveřejněno před 2 měsíciHallo,
Danke für die positive Bewertung! Ich habe die Erweiterung auf startpage.com getestet und bei mir funktioniert die Fokus-Option wie erwartet. Vielleicht hat sich das Problem in der Zwischenzeit durch eine Website-Änderung erledigt.
