When I open new tabs, how do I set my tabs to open to the same web page every time?

I have my home page set, but I don't see an option to set what site my tabs open with. I did have a website opening in my tabs, but it wasn't a change I made. According to one of the help articles, an extension may have changed what site kept appearing in new tabs. Now, my tabs are back to the eight tiles, but I'd like to set them to a specific website. How do I make this change to my tabs?

Hello,

I appreciate the response, but I still don't see how to set the tab default website, and where that option is located under "Tools," if that option even exists in the Tools section.

You will have to open the about:config page and set the new tab page by changing the value of the browser.newtab.url pref via the right-click context menu as stated in the KB article.

You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I'll be careful" to continue.

Thank you, cor-el. I see how to do it now. Wouldn't it be easier to have the "tab homepage" settings in the firefox menu w/o habing to open the about:config page?
