FD behavior with pinned tab
olicé Wed, 04/08/2015 - 03:41
Hi,
I've just updated firefox and fast dial to the last versions : ff37.0.1 and fd 4.12.
I've just noticed that if I pin a tab with fast dial opened inside, when I click to open o link from fast dial, it opens in a new tab, not in the same one as it did with all the previous FF versions.
And no matter which option is selected in the tools.
Another thing is when I have a normal tab pinned with google opened, I can't open fast dial in it; fast dail will open in a new tab.
But if I release the pinned tab, Fast Dial behaves normally.
Am I the only one who got this strange behavior with Fast Dial ?
Thanks and sorry for my english.

Re: FD behavior with pinned tab
Submitted by Deva on Wed, 04/08/2015 - 07:29When FastDial is pinned, bookmarks are opened in new tab, no matter what option in "open links in: ..." is selected. Also, it doesn't matter if the option "Open new windows in a new tab" in FF is turned on or not.
But seems like this is new behaviour in FF regarding opening bookmarks from pinned tabs. When a "normal" tab is pinned (google..) and you try to open a bookmarked page (or clicking FastDial button- I guess it works like bookmark leading to "chrome://fastdial/content/fastdial.html") , it opens in a new tab.
Same thing happens when you pin FastDial.
Upon clicking on dials, you're effectively clicking on bookmarks, so they open in a new tab.
I don't know if there's any way to override this from the FastDial side, or if there's any option in Firefox that disables this behaviour.

Are either of you also using Tab Mix Plus by chance ?
