Can't open Fast Dial in new tab

kanaplan —Fri, 06/19/2015 - 04:03

Hi all. After Firefox 38 released, I observerd 1 thing.

When I'm opening firefox, Fast Dial page opens ok, because is set as homepage, but when I'm trying to open new tab, firefox gives me error "File not found", and every time I need to click Fast Dial icon to open the page.

It's very frustrating and i can't find any solution on the net.

Help me please if you have solutions.

Hi!
I'm on Firefox 38.0.5 and everything works fine for me.
My homepage in FF is set to "chrome://fastdial/content/fastdial.html"

Firefox and FastDial settings:

Since it's giving you an error, I guess your homepage setting is wrong or something happened with FastDial.
Have you tried reinstalling it?

Btw, I'm on version 4.14 of FastDial (link).

@Deva

What about your Tabs page ?

Tabs page?

I think that "Show Fast Dial in blank tabs" option in FD overwrites FF tabs.

I was just curious to see your settings

In my set up (Pale Moon) I need to set on the Tabs page "when opening in New tab" to the "Quickdial" Page otherwise I get the "Pale Monn Page"

Maybe this user has another cause to his problem apart from correct settings

The new tab page was set manually in about:config, for some months and I forgot about that

Good. Thanks for the feedback....

"chrome://fastdial/content/fastdial.html" this is my homepage and that "chrome://quick_start/content/index.html" is page which firefox trying to open when I click new tab. I think this is the problem but i dont know how to fix it

Interestingly enough, I came across a video, which both describes the cause, and the way to resolve, your paticular issue: here
