Firefox is not refreshing page after restart
I'm not sure if it's a problem with Firefox or Google News, but I have to manually refresh the page, even if I close and re-open Firefox. I marked the cookies options to "keep until I close firefox", but nothing changed. Any hint?

Hello tombrito, see if you find useful the next add-on : ReloadEvery
thank you
it can be useful, but I would prefer something to reload only on startup (I hate when I'm reading a page and it suddenly reload).
By the way, looks like the problem occurs only with Google News page.
Hello, in about:config, find browser.cache.check_doc_frequency and change the value to 1 (double-click on it, change the value to 1 and click OK), exit firefox and re-start it.

be sure you have :
browser.cache.disk.enable or browser.cache.memory.enable set to true also.
thanks again
Reload the webpage while bypassing the cache using one of the following steps:
- Hold down the Shift key and click the Reload button with a left click.
OR
- Press Ctrl + F5 or Ctrl + Shift + R (Windows and Linux)
- Press Command + Shift + R (Mac)
