How can I restore a website to the "Top Sites" in Firefox after accidentally removing it?
The websites blocked from the "Top Sites" are stored in the setting browser.newtabpage.blocked
that can be found in about:config
. However, the names of the sites are not stored in a human-readable format, so restoring a single website is difficult. The best possibility that I have found is to completely reset the setting, which restores all pages that were dismissed from the Top Sites.
How can I restore a site to its former place after I have unintentionally removed it?
First add it back:
Add a Top Site
- Hover the mouse pointer anywhere within the Top Sites section of tiles and click on the three-dot menu that appears in the upper right corner.
Click Add Top Site.
Type in a title and URL for the site, then click Add.
A tile with the first letter from the title will appear in your Top Sites.
Then put it back in the correct place:
Rearrange Top Sites
Click and hold on a tile and drag it to another spot.
