Great extension! Brings back some painfully missing functionality of the TabMix Plus add-on. The only option I'm missing is to duplicate / clone the current tab when opening a new one.

Displays a custom website as expected. Sadly the focus cannot be set to the URL bar, so I have to press «CMD + L» to set the focus to the URL bar in order to type in a URL.
Would be great if this could be fixed. I am using macOS Mojave with latest Firefox.

Cumple con su función, aunque una de las opciones, la de no fijar el foco en la página, sino en la barra de direcciones, actualmente no funciona.

good rlly

i can keep so many tabs so well organized with this

It would be useful to see in the settings of this addon what exactly the local file is currently used

Running 14.0.2 and the new tab continually reloads.
What I want is a blank new page, with the focus on the page instead of the address bar.
Any suggestions??
thnx

It seems the Add-on also overrides tabs that are reopened via the "re-open closed tab" functionality. At least sometimes or if the tab in question was closed for more than a few seconds. Otherwise it is a very good and handy add-on.

Stopped working since last update, it always focuses on webpage now even if we ask it to focus on the URL bar.

I liked this add-on, but it doesn't work anymore since updating Firefox to version 61.0 . what should i do?

Very nice. I ended up removing it because it will often add the default "new tab" page to the URL after I start typing, which I found frustrating. If it could somehow stop trying to load the default URL when the user is typing a new one it would be nice.

The 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

Does as described. Wish it was a bit more instantaneous, it seems to go through some short redirect process that is about a second long.

A bit too shaky forme

Exactly what i was looking for,

Hi, 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.

Very 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...
