After hunting for an extension that allows you to use a custom url as a new tab this is IT!

All the other extensions don't clear the url bar when making a new tab. So when you start typing the characters are appended to the url bar contents, meaning you need to manually clear the url bar each time.

This one fixes that! I've struggled with it for a month now, and finally found this extension. Thanks MethodGrab!

just what I was looking for, thank you!

Does what it says on the tin, and I really appreciate that it does so while maintaining focus on the address bar.

The only custom new tab addon that works well (with automatic selectable address bar)! Thanks to the dev.

This is a great add on for displaying a simple, custom new tab page.

Especially if your page doesn't have links and just displays some JS enabled info, it's a great way to not pollute the address bar as you do so.

Works great for my simple use case!

works well

Thanks a lot! This is the best addon! This is what I wanted :)

Works!

Works much better than the famous New Tab Override.

I use this in conjunction with raidrop.io to give me fast access to my bookmarks. The key feature here is that the focus remains on the address bar, because raindrop.io can take a minute to load. With this extension, I do not have to wait, I can immediately start typing my search in address bar. WELL DONE!

Awesome! Thanks, this is the only way to get decent new tab functionality until Mozilla fixes the bug with the url bar.
