When I restart Firefox, my pinned tabs open to the last webpage that I viewed rather than the page that I originally pinned. For example, if I pinned to a local newspaper's website, navigate to espn while on the pinned tab and then close Firefox, the next time I open Firefox, the pinned tab goes to espn rather than the local newspaper's site.

Additionally, the same thing happens if I am reading an article on the pinned tab. When reopening Firefox, the pinned tab goes to the last article viewed.

Hi don.w,

That is just the way that pinned tabs are designed. They are meant to be left on the page you want them left on e.g. a web mail account.

If you want to pin a newspaper then I would pin the front page and then open any article you want to read in a new tab.

Having said that there is an addon called Tab-utilities which contains an option to automatically revert a pinned tab to the original URL.

I hope that helps.
