I have a particular website that I frequently visit but it does not show up as a tile when I open a new tab. Other sites I visit do show up, it seems to be an issue with this site. Any ideas?

Did you try to drag the control center 'i' button of a tab with that website open to a tile on the about:newtab page?

You're welcome


You can change the order of the boxes on the about:newtab page and drag an item to a different tile to pin it to that position or you can remove a website by clicking the close X to block that URL. You can drag a bookmark or history item from the sidebar and drop it in a tile on the about:newtab page to pin this item and have your own favorites sites present.

Changes made manually on the about:newtab page are stored in prefs that you can find on the about:config page.

  • browser.newtabpage.pinned stores websites that you have pinned to a tile.
  • browser.newtabpage.blocked stores websites that you have removed by clicking the X button in a tile.
