where are the pinned shortcuts on the home page stored? I haven't found them in about:config
Pinned New Tab shortcuts are saved in 'about:config' as a string of values in preference 'browser.newtabpage.pinned'. The value string can be copied to a text file... and file can be 'exported' and copied into a new Firefox instance. Restart new browser/profile instance and the saved pinned shortcuts should reappear in correct order... and their thumbnails will regenerate when each website is visited again. More on reddit.com

The shortcuts on my homepage change randomly. How can I lock it so only the shortcuts I want are displayed and in the same order?
To keep a site in the shortcuts there should be a button that can be clicked(I think its in the top right corner(it might look like 3 dots)). When its clicked a menu should show up, and in it there should be an option to pin the site. This should keep it there, until you decide to unpin it. More on reddit.com

There's so many ways to have website shortcuts on the firefox homepage, and yet they're all just different silly auto-suggests (jump back in, recently saved, etc)

The closest I got was adding websites to the shortcuts, BUT you can't even change the order of the websites there or edit their urls.

Is there any way to just simply have my own customised list of website shortcuts??
