Hello nbgcity,

Would you try this please :

Type in the address bar about:config and press Enter (ignore the warning)

Type in the search bar :

browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.discoverystream.enabled

It's value should be set to true.

If you had to change the value, then close and restart Firefox.

Does that work ?

Does it help if you set the number of row to 3 for the Highlights section in "Options/Preferences -> Home" in case there is only a global setting that applies to each of them ?

Yeah but is this really a "bug"???

I mean they showed several news boxes from Pocket before V71... after that they limited it to only 3 news boxes.
