Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64; rv:77.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/77.0

Steps to reproduce:

Firefox 77:

  1. Click on the urlbar, you will see 10 items open.

  2. Go to about: config> browser.urlbar.maxRichResults and put 12.

  3. Click on the urlbar, it always remains at 10 results instead of 12

  4. To correct the problem, go to Tools> Options> Home> Uncheck "Most visited sites"

  5. Open the urlbar on firefox, there are now 12 items, it's correct.

  6. Now click on the "+" next to a tab to open a new empty tab, on the site history page at the very top is gone. While normally they must be present.

  7. Now check again Tools> Options> Home> Check "Most visited sites"

  8. Now click on the "+" next to a tab to open a new empty tab, on the site history page at the top is returned but there are still only 10 items instead of 12 on the urlbar .

Can you fix this annoying bug so that the result is like this:

  • 12 items on the urlbar
  • "Most visited sites" which appears in a new tab.

This bug did not exist on Firefox ...74 to 76

Greetings

Ah also something else: I don't like big border hover on Firefox 77 on urlbar, I followed this tutorial to correct:

Bugbug thinks this bug should belong to this component, but please revert this change in case of error.

Component: Untriaged → Address Bar

the problem here is that Top Sites are not respecting maxRichResults, the reason is explained in bug 1631848. Disabling Top Sites in Firefox 77 we show the old list of top sites, but Firefox 78 won't show any list.
I think you should keep Top Sites enabled, and follow bug 1631848, hopefully we can make the list respect the pref.

Regarding the extension, we are aware of the feedback, but for now we don't plan to revert the design choice, or provide an option. We are evaluating alternative options.
