Hello,

I've written an extension that overrides the new tab page (chrome_url_override 'newtab' https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/manifest.json/chrome_url_overrides), and I would like to have this page not only be the new tab page in my browser, but also the homepage that appears when I first open Firefox.

I've tried using the custom URL option in the preferences for 'New windows and tabs', and clicking 'Use current page' for, so that the URL is that of my extensions new tab page (moz-extension://f897059f-ffba-8d43-9569-8d488fcaeb19/pages/newtab.html in my case), however this does not work, when first opened, Firefox displays a blank page with no console errors or anything.

Is there any way to set the home page to my custom new page, or any page that I can provide with my extension? It needs to have access to the bookmarks via the web extension API, otherwise I would just use a custom local URL.

I'd appreciate any help on this.

I just set my homepage to Google and it works without problems.

I appreciate your reply, but that's not my problem, as I wrote at the end I can set the homepage to a regular URL just fine, but I want it to open an extension page, with access to the web extension API.

To add to it, it seems that this actually works for me on windows 10, the issue with the blank page is only on mac.

Then something on your mac probably the security software is causing the blank page then. As you said it works fine on Windows 10 then that means the problem is the Mac.
