Opening New Tab settings

Post by thetimdevoe » 2018-02-08, 15:04

I just started using the Pale Moon Browser yesterday, 7 February 2018, and I'm still going through and looking at all of the settings and customization that Pale Moon offers but I encountered what might be a bug. When I go into Preferences to change what a new tab opens with, the default setting is "a blank page", but when I try to change that to "My homepage", it defaults back to "a blank page" again. Has anyone else run into this or am I just missing something?

Huh, yeah. Weird.

Manually changing the browser.newtab.url preference in about:config works for me, though. (Put 'about:config' in your address bar, hit enter, search for 'browser.newtab.url,' double click the string it's set to and change it to the URL of the page you want new tabs to load.)
