hi all,

I am running Firefox v 48. When I opened a new tab recently, instead of just seeing my 4 'pinned' sites in the top row of tiles and the rest of the tiles blank, all the tiles were filled in with sites that had not been manually added. I clicked on the red x in the right hand corner and another previously visited site automatically went in to that tile. I kept clicking on the red x until finally a 'blank' tile appeared. How do I prevent the empty tiles from automatically filling in, in the future ( i have the 'include suggested sites' box unchecked ).

thanks.

With Firefox 41 (and higher), it's no longer possible to customize the page shown in a new tab via changing the preference browser.newtab.url in about.config. Because of the fact that hijackers abused the preference in the past, Mozilla decided to remove it (see bug 1118285). Fortunately, by removing it, Mozilla also introduced a new API to bring this functionality back to life as an add-on. This add-on allows the user to choose a certain page in a new tab.

New Tab Override (browser.newtab.url replacement) https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/new-tab-override/

This is also available using Classic Theme Restorer (Customize Australis) {web link} Restore squared tabs, appmenu, add-ons bar, small button view and more on Australis UI (Windows/MacOSX/Linux + Fx 29+).

Hmm, I don't know of any built-in setting to prevent history tiles from being displayed automatically AND still having the ability to interact with tiles you add yourself.

In past threads, I think someone mentioned that one workaround would be to pin a blank page (or other temporary placeholder of your choice) in the other rectangles so there was no room for history tiles to be added, but I haven't gone back and searched for the steps to do that.
