When I click on the new tab button, a small cross, it opens the new tab, but displays another sites search page, not my homepage. I cannot find where to tell it to open my homepage on all new tabs that are opened from the tab bar.

The basic Firefox build has always opened a blank page when you open a new tab.

Maybe some add-on you installed modified that feature of Firefox which now opens all tabs in a different page. Here's what you will need to do.

Open Firefox -> go to Help Menu -> select "Restart with Add-ons Disabled"

Firefox will close then it will open up with just basic Firefox. The tabs will now be opening in a blank page. You can Enable the add-ons again and check if its working properly.

Thanks for the answer. It turns out there was an add-on called Oberon gamebar. I didn't even know it was there. When I removed it the problem went away.
