I am trying to get pocket recomendations in Firefox. I do not have 'browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.feeds.system.topstories' in about config to set to true to get pocket recommendations. This happened after latest update.

I uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled with version 18.5 installer with same issue, no recommended pocket.

Go to about:config and change browser.search.region to US then restart the browser.

'browser.search.region' does not appear in about:config listings as well as 'browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.feeds.system.topstories'

Create it with "String" type if it does not already exist.

Thank you zeroknight, I have pocket again. When I was searching for browser.search.region it came up as DE which I changed to US and all is good. Thank you again for your help.
