Unfortunately this is not something that can be fixed.
The way this addon avoids changing the address bar content is by creating an iframe and displaying your chosen site in that iframe. The problem is that sites (like Google) can set an HTTP header that blocks other sites (like this addon) from displaying their pages inside an iframe.
If you look in the addon options page, next to where you choose the URL, it does warn you about this by saying "The site must allow iframe embedding or it won't work".
However, in your case, I don't really understand the use case for having google.com as your new tab page if you can just search straight from the address bar? Maybe Firefox address bar "smart keywords" would work better so you could just type something like "img my icon" in the address bar and be taken straight to the Google image search results for "my icon". Here's a Firefox post about using "smart keywords" if you're interested https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-search-from-address-bar.

- Evaluat(ă) cu 5 din 5 stelede Utilizator Firefox 18097713, 2 luni în urmăBest option to have a custom url and not change the address bar, perfect
- Evaluat(ă) cu 5 din 5 stelede dirkules, 3 luni în urmăDoes exactly what I want, awesome! No URL that's prefilled, I can just start typing and still have my selfhosted dashboard when opening a New Tab 🫰
- Evaluat(ă) cu 5 din 5 stelede Cloud, 5 luni în urmăMost other new tab overrides just redirect to the url. But this extension uses an iframe I think. Another plus is when loading the new tab page you can set it to be dark mode or light mode, so no more flashes of white when loading a page that is dark.

However, I'm so annoyed at Mozilla for making an addon to be necessary!!
It's so dumb that they don't let you change the NewTab url like they let you change your new window start page.
There is really NO reason for Mozilla NOT to off the ability to do so.
Well, I'm betting that it has to do with $$$ honestly. The default new tab page is all about Pocket and most of the default articles it gives you are to paid sites that Pocket (aka Mozilla) make money from.... soooooo, that is the ONLY reason why I can see them not offering.
Because lets face it, we open new tabs A LOT more then we do new windows. - Evaluat(ă) cu 5 din 5 stelede Utilizator Firefox 18169319, 6 luni în urmă

- Evaluat(ă) cu 5 din 5 stelede John, 9 luni în urmăAfter 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! - Evaluat(ă) cu 3 din 5 stelede Vindikato, un an în urmă

- Evaluat(ă) cu 5 din 5 stelede gordo, un an în urmăDoes what it says on the tin, and I really appreciate that it does so while maintaining focus on the address bar.
- Evaluat(ă) cu 5 din 5 stelede Utilizator Firefox 17453031, un an în urmăThe only custom new tab addon that works well (with automatic selectable address bar)! Thanks to the dev.
- Evaluat(ă) cu 5 din 5 stelede David Wynn, un an în urmăThis 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! - Evaluat(ă) cu 5 din 5 stelede VeeIn3D, 2 ani în urmă

- Evaluat(ă) cu 1 din 5 stelede Utilizator Firefox 17064749, 3 ani în urmăSearch engines like google doesn't work.
Should be in the description that search engines like google doesn't work since its probably the most popular custom url. - Evaluat(ă) cu 3 din 5 stelede Elliott Slaughter, 3 ani în urmăThis extension doesn't work for file:// URLs. I'd prefer not to host my new tab page publicly, just so I can load it on my own computer. Otherwise seems to work fine (assuming the target page is accessible via http or https).
