I have some additional information that may help. The list of pinned sites resets every time I restart firefox. When sites are pinned, the thumbtack on the top left corner turns blue. After restarting firefox, the list of sites is in some random order (probably ordered by # of times visited) and none of those thumbtacks are blue. If I move the site's icon back to where it used to be, the thumbtack turns blue again (i.e., it is pinned).
Previously, my first row consisted of 3 sites: Google, Youtube, 4chan. In this screenshot, I have moved the Youtube icon back to position #2, and it has been pinned automatically. If I move it to any other spot, it is not pinned. http://i.imgur.com/vq7Y8.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1066583 Title: All pinned tabs on "new tab" page went missing after update to aurora 18.0a2 Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I have restarted my PC.
