### Setting nightTab as your Firefox homepage
Firefox does not allow the "homepage" to be replaces by an addon. However there is a workaround:
- Open a new Firefox window
- Open Firefox `Preferences` and open a new tab (nightTab)
- In Firefox preferences under `Home` , change `Homepage and new windows` to `Custom URLs...`
- Then click `Use Current Page` .
nightTab will now appear when the homepage.
