How do I add bookmarks to the new tab page? Dragging a bookmark only opens the page in the new tab.

Just as the title says, I'm having problems setting up my new tab page. I drag a bookmark (I've tried from the dropdown menu, the bookmarks toolbar, and the library) to one of the rectangles and it opens the bookmark in the tab rather than pinning it there. I've tried both with my normal setup and with all addons disabled, but the same thing happens regardless.

Are that links to web pages on internet because you can't pin local pages?

Make sure that you do not run Firefox in permanent Private Browsing mode (Never remember history).

Ah, the private browsing mode was the problem. Thanks a lot.
