Hi, recently my firefox was updated and I don't know what happened but it had to reinstall all my addons after the update. But ever since then, my pocket recommendations have not been showing up. I followed the steps in this guide: https://medium.com/@EhsanNazim/re-enable-recommended-by-pocket-section-on-firefox-homepage-and-new-tab-a4df044f9c17

and set browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.feeds.section.topstories to True but still no change. Can anyone provide a solution?

Hi, Change the value of this preference :

browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.feeds.system.topstories

to   "true".

Does that bring the recommendations back ?

P.S.: Don't forget to close and restart Firefox after you've changed the value.
