Hey everyone!
For a couple of weeks Firefox seems to have issues displaying my Dashboard when loading it. When i switch to another page and back to the dashboard it looks normal again.
Before that the same dashboard worked for over a year. Also in Chrome it still is displayed as usual.
Sadly i couldn’t find something when searching online. Does anyone have an idea to fix it?
Update: I got fed up with the bug again and decided to reinstall firefox. On reinstall it prompted me to “Clean” firefox instead. And apparently that helped.

I’ve had similar experiences with FF and HA. I tried everything that has been suggested to you and kept having problems. In the end I installed Brave just for HA. I still use FF for everything else.
Weird that it just randomly started after it was fine for so long. Oh well thanks.
I’ve been using these together for about a year or two without issues. Do you guys have these tabs set to a weird mode like “Tablet” or something? Any custom card or custom layout mods?
I dont think so. I think i had one hacs card, but ill try removing some and see if that changes anything. But somewhat pretty sure that i didnt change anything when it started breaking.
Dumb question but do you have any FF extensions that might be causing issues and can you disable them for the site?
As suggested by the other comment I tried a private window and disabled all extensions in private windows and it still has the same issue.
Interestingly I just noticed that it happens on all dashboards. The third one being just a vertical stack with 2 sensor entities. So its also not that specific configuration.
I also tried:
- Deleting all cookies/cache
- Downgrading to an older version/upgrading to latest homeassistant
While typing this I tested it on firefox on another machine (linux in that case) and there it works without problems. But i have all add-ons synchronized between them. So im out of ideas :D.
Does it display alright in a private window?
No there its also broken, also not when disabling all extensions for private windows. Also provided some more information in another comment.
Anything strange in the console? (F12 -> Console)
I haven’t had this happen, but on numerous occasions, when editing a card using yaml, my typing is reversed. i.e., the second letter I type appears to the left of the first letter, and so on.
I either have to use the mouse to click after each letter, or I have to reverse the text in my mind. It’s quite annoying.
Just for balance, I use Firefox to show HA dashboards on a Linux PC and an Android tablet and don’t have any issues, so it must be a combination of things, rather than Firefox itself…
I usually say: start by removing all frontend resources - especially anything with my name on it - and see if it fixes things.
Try disabling enhanced tracking protection next to the certificate information
Interesting suggestion. I tried it and sadly it didnt help. Thanks for the idea.
Dang I wonder what it could be then, I know turning that off helped a lot of pages load correctly for my install
