od uživatele scsc, před 6 letyDeactivating the extension replaces the current tab content by a default new tab, destroying all data one is working on and even literally erasing the tab from tab history (no way to use Back). Activating the extension instead closes the current tab. Even now, the tab is completely lost in the void, because ctrl+shift+t causes a "new tab" be opened INSTEAD of the previously closed tab. (EDIT: The previously closed tab is only lost due to a hazard when I press ctrl+shift+t twice very fast.)
Other than that, the addon does what it has to do, and I appreciate the option to gain tab focus instead of the navigation bar. One last thing i'd find very useful is if typing into the address bar before anything gets loaded postponed the process of replacing address bar (deleting anything I've typed) and taking the focus away. Not sure if firefox even provides so much API to achieve this.
// Reply: Well the issue is critical and deserves at least an acknowledgement in the description, as it's an anti-feature. Honestly though, I haven't seen WebExtensions implementation, but I don't believe you at all. I can imagine several workarounds, neither of them were even considered. Is there no API whatsoever to access the last closed tab history, so that you can offer a way to manually re-open the lost tab? Is there absolutely no way not to process your addon when the user presses Ctrl+Shift+T? Is that specific event impossible be detected? Can you not let the default implementation (optionally) load first before redirecting to the user specified site? Also the issue could be reported to WebExtensions devs... Completely blocking the "re-open last tab" support is definitely not acceptable as a final decision. (But I know the WebExtensions suck, there are so many other addons that no longer work even in theory in the new Firefox.)
-> Okay so I decided to try to fix my issue myself and even though I found a WebExtensions solution, there was a bug that I couldn't fix. Still, some safety workarounds could be made. Luckily, I found a workaround instead: disabling the focus setting solved the issue, because it still focuses the new page anyway (the setting is broken), thus it works exactly as I wanted.

- Hodnocení: 4 z 5od uživatele CherKab, před 2 dnythanks a lot for your firefox app & work
Now i can openn new tab to the way that i want.
2 issues that i would like to report:
1) is it possible to empty the address bar field so as to not do it by ourselves ?
2) the personal bar disappears when your app is in use. can it be possible to provide an option so that it keep stand if it has already setted in firefox?

zveřejněno před 2 dnyThanks for the review.
1. No, that's not possible for WebExtensions.
2. I don't know what "personal bar" means, but New Tab Override doesn't change anything with regard to toolbars. Do you mean the bookmarks toolbar? Firefox has a setting to a) always show the toolbar b) only for new tabs (but that's only the case when you override it with this add-on!) or c) never show it. I guess, you should use a) in that case. - Hodnocení: 5 z 5od uživatele Uživatel Firefoxu - 18385732, před 2 měsícian annoying bug:
when you open a new tab , then go for a url , u cannot highlight a word for copy,it turn grey, disable this plugin can solve the problem.Odpověď vývojáře
zveřejněno před 2 dnyThis issue is not related to New Tab Override at all. It's a known Firefox bug that can happen under certain circumstances.
Thanks for the great rating! - Hodnocení: 5 z 5od uživatele Edgar, před 2 měsíci
- Hodnocení: 4 z 5od uživatele Uživatel Firefoxu - 17940157, před 2 měsíciAll good and functional. Only feedback I'd give is for it not to bring me to my selected page when I open a new tab with ctrl+shift+T which is when I want to bring back a previous page and not have it be overtaken by the tab homepage :)

- Hodnocení: 1 z 5od uživatele Uživatel Firefoxu - 14005394, před 5 měsíciStopped working today. Absolutely does not set focus to the web page instead of the address bar. The cursor jumps to the address bar every time I try to type in the Google search field. Also will not open new tabs to my home page. Instead it opens to Firefox home page.

zveřejněno před 4 měsíciPlease do not abuse the review system for support requests. If it suddenly stopped it's clear that it can't be the fault of New Tab Override as there was no update at the time of your review. Also there was no other similar report. - Hodnocení: 5 z 5od uživatele Uživatel Firefoxu - 15009184, před 5 měsíci

- Hodnocení: 5 z 5od uživatele Uživatel Firefoxu - 17862970, před 6 měsíciRE: Thank you for addressing the issue. Before rating the extension, I unpacked it and looked at the code. It didn't make any sense to me why it had that as part of validation.
Thanks a lot, Sören.
Can't set custom homepage with custom protocol e.g. moz-extension://Odpověď vývojáře
zveřejněno před 4 měsíciYou can use moz-extension:// URIs now. In the future, please request features via appropriate channels instead of abusing the review system. Maybe you want to consider a better review now as your only point of criticism was addressed. - Hodnocení: 5 z 5od uživatele Device Problem, před 6 měsíci
- Hodnocení: 4 z 5od uživatele Speede-du-potar, před 6 měsíciThis Add-on can't decipher characters with French accents. Too bad.
And when he opens my page, there's a big frame all around it, which takes up too much space on a small screen! - Hodnocení: 5 z 5od uživatele Uživatel Firefoxu - 18203154, před 6 měsíciWorks just as described. In the options I pasted in the page I wanted to load on each new tab, and now it's just click and there it is. Thanks!
