Home page
The page with a search box and your site shortcuts, and what else you can put on it.
The home page is a search box with your site shortcuts under it, on top of your background image.
Getting there
- ⌘Ctrl⇧ShiftH opens Home in the folder you're in.
- The Home button at the top left of the titlebar, or on the command center's bottom bar, does the same.
- When the last tab in a folder closes, the home page shows in its place.
Home stays open as a tab. Pages you open from it open beside it, in the same folder.
Searching
The search box works like the command center's: type an address or a search and press Enter. Bangs, history, and web results work the same, and open tabs that match what you type show up under it.
Shortcuts
Shortcuts are tiles for the sites you go to most. Bring the pointer near the end of the row to show the add tile, then type an address or pick one of your most visited sites.
Drag a tile to move it, or right-click it for Open, Edit…, Move left, Move right, Copy link, and Remove.
The home page holds 12 shortcuts. The Unlimited shortcuts plugin removes that limit. If you remove the plugin, the first 12 stay and the rest are kept for when you install it again.
More on the home page
Plugins can add sections under the search box:
| Plugin | Shows |
|---|---|
| Tabs on the home page | Your tabs and folders, as in the command center |
| Stocks | Market movers and your watchlist |
| News | Top stories, from topics you pick and feeds you add |
| YouTube | Videos picked for you, or from your subscriptions |
Arranging it
Settings → Appearance → Home page sets the order of the home page's parts, top to bottom: the search box, shortcuts, and any plugin sections. Drag them into place. A section whose plugin is off keeps its place, dimmed, for when it's back on.
Bring the pointer to the page's bottom-left corner for links to Settings, Plugins, and 1zero's Discord.
Home page and startup
Settings → General → On startup decides what opens when the browser starts: Restore tabs (every window from last time), New tab (an empty tab and the command center), or Homepage, a web address of your choice in one tab.
