How to: Set up multiple homepages in Firefox

May 25, 2005 by Dan in Tech with 2 Comments

If there’s more than one site you always visit after starting up Firefox, you can set your homepage to open several tabs of different web sites at once automatically.

From Firefox’s Tools menu, Options, General, enter the addresses of sites separated by a pipe |, as shown above. Or, you can open up all the sites in tabs and hit the “Use Current Pages”? button.

If you do this when you click on the home button it opens up all the pages.

Maybe consider assigned a keyword to your main homepage in the bookmarks manager. Say your most important homepage is The Wall Street Journal. Go to bookmarks manager, create a bookmark and add ‘wsj’ as the keyword. When you’re browsing normal pages and get the urge to get to WSJ, hit [ctrl + L] or [cmd + L] (which puts your cursor in the address bar) and type wsj [enter].

I think it’s a little more efficient compared to moving your mouse cursor to the homepage button and clicking. Using keywords you’ll be able to retain the multiple homepages at startup while having quick access to your favorite page.
