Renewed Tab - New Tab by rubenwardy

Rated 5 out of 5
by Ionut Florin, 4 months agoSolid addon, I like this page better than the Firefox' stock Home Page. I use it very basic, only a curated background that changes every day and a Links widget.
I didn't like the way Firefox displays the new tab with that ugly text saying that is loaded from an extension. Also, I'm not a very big fan of the Renewed Tab icon that is displayed when opening a new tab.
I'm also using the "firefox-gnome-theme" and this css made the new tab's aesthetics way better:
#identity-icon[tooltiptext="Loaded by extension: Renewed Tab"] {
list-style-image: url(firefox-gnome-theme/theme/icons/edit-find-symbolic.svg) !important;
}
#identity-icon-label[value="Extension (Renewed Tab)"] {
display: none !important;
}
/* here you need to use the inspector to get the full data string of the Renewed Tab icon in oder to replace it with the stock firefox icon */
.tab-icon-image[src="data:image/svg+xml;base64,PD94bWwgdmVyc2lvbj0iMS4wIiBlbmNvZGluZz0iVVRGLTgiIHN0YW5kYWxvb[..... removed rest of the data string because of length constraints ..........]Cjwvc3ZnPgo="] {
content: url("chrome://branding/content/icon32.png") !important;
}

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13302598, 10 days agoIt's perfect, but for some reason the HTML widget only supports raw html and css, no script. No need to worry, I simply chose to use an iframe for my self coded widget.
Developer response
posted 9 days agoThanks for the review. Firefox doesn't allow extensions to run inline code for security reasons, so if you want scripts then iframe is the intended widget. There's even a tutorial on the Renewed Tab website - Rated 5 out of 5by Rin, 16 days agovery straightforward and simple plugin but also one of the most customizable new tab plugins i've seen here so far
the dev(s) did a good job for this one - Rated 5 out of 5by Finga, 20 days ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Feregrinm, 21 days agoIn my opinion, it is the best of its kind. It is everything I expected from a plugin of this type.
Features to highlight:
- Great and convenient customization.
- Clean and beautiful
- Large catalog of widgets
Suggestion: To be able to upload an icon from your computer (not really necessary, but for me it's easier).
Thank you very much for this add-on - Rated 5 out of 5by anna, 21 days ago
