I can't find out how to check if the extension used in Mozilla Firefox is a new tab extension.



It works for Google Chrome. I am using the following code in my Google Chrome extension while using webextension-polyfill to be cross-platform compatible👇



import browser from 'webextension-polyfill'

const results = await browser.management.getAll()
extensions = results.filter(extension =>
extension.permissions.includes('newTabPageOverride'),
)


This does not work in Firefox as it does not have a special type like newTabPageOverride in permissions array



How can I find out which extension is a New Tab Extension in Mozilla Firefox?

  • newTabPageOverride is a non-documented internal hack in Chrome, which is probably why it wasn't implemented in Firefox. You can file a feature request on bugzil.la, if it's not already submitted.

  • @wOxxOm so is there no way to do it in Firefox?

  • I also filed a feature request on bugzilla

  • So I guess it isn't gonna happen as they closed the issue & would re-open it someday in the future
