How to Add a Theme to Firefox

If you don’t see a theme you like on the main page, click on the see more themes option. You can search for your new themes by scrolling. Or, you can use the search tool to find a specific style.
How to Customize the Home Page for Firefox

But, if you’ve never changed anything, you’ll only see popular sites that aren’t the ones you want to have there. The good news is that changing the thumbnail on the home page is easy.
What you can do first is remove the ones you are not going to need. Place the cursor over the first one you want to erase until you see the three dots. Click on the dots and choose the remove option.
After you remove a few, you’ll start seeing some blank thumbnails. To add the sites, you want to click on the pencil icon and when the new window appears, add the necessary information.
How to Adjust Site Permissions on Firefox
By modifying site permissions, you can make browsing a site more enjoyable. For example, you won’t have to deal with annoying pop-ups or any notifications. You can adjust the site permission by going to:
- Settings

- Site Permissions
If there are any sites you want to allow a specific permission, click on the Settings button and add the URL. At the bottom left, you can check a small box if you want to block new requests for a certain permission.
