I had to refresh my firefox browser. After that on the firefox new tabs page there is no possibility to show recommended articles by pocket any more.

I can not fix it. There is no possibility to switch it on in the options -> home settings.

There is not any checkbox for "recommended articles by pocket" any more.

How can I fix this?

Hello ManuFX,

thank you very much for your answer.

The Pocket for firefox Button is in my adress-line.

If I open a new tab, then normally there were recommended articles from pocket. This recommended articles I do not find any more.

In the normal browser settings I cannot reconfigure that.

Do you now what I mean?

Thanks.

Click Accept the Risk and Continue to go to the about:config page. -> Type "pocket" in the Search box -> Click the Toggle Fx71aboutconfig-ToggleButton button next to the extensions.pocket.onSaveRecs preference to toggle its value to true -> Restart Firefox

Thank you ManuFX for your answer, but unfortunately it does not solve the problem.

The toggleButton next to the extensions.pocket.onSaveRecs preference value is chosen to true! I add a screenshot to this answer.

Maybe I have to do something else there?

Hello ManuFX,

thank you for the suggestion to refresh my firefox. But I can not emagine that this solves the problem.

I had a big problem before I first time refreshed my firefox.

After doing this i had to set up my extensions again.

Because I am using the browser for work, I do not want to do this again.

The last times that the problem occured, then the next Update from Mozilla solved the problem. So I first wait for the next update. If there is for a long time no update, I will try to refresh my browser.

I think that the problem is into the about:config "pocket"...

Thank you for your efforts. I will send message again, when I had to refresh my browser...

With kind regards!
