New tab page only shows icons when I open a new window, not when I open additional tabs within existing window. Help!

When I click the + sign to open a new blank tab, I don't see any of my favorite / pinned websites. I can only see this when I start a new browser window, and only for the "landing page". Once I go to any other page, I can not get my new tab page with tabs to display.

Chosen solution

I fixed it. I went into about:config and had to change browser.newtab.url to about:newtab

Thanks though! Marking as solved, have a great day
