When using tab, automatically opening Home page

more options

When I open a new Tab, it directs me to a blank page. I would rather that it would open to my home page. I know that there is something out there to make it so. But I am at wits end.

A blank page on a new tab is the Firefox default.

Install the following add-on: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/newtaburl/

After installation and restarting Firefox:

  1. click Add-ons > Extensions
  2. scroll down to NewTab URL and click Options
  3. click on "Home Page" to select it OR click on "URL" to select it and enter the address of the page you want to open when you open a new tab
