Launching OmniWeb brings up recent page, not designated Home Page Thread Tools Search this Thread Display Modes
[Moved from Bug Reports- sorry, I'm new here]
I've been using OmniWeb for Mac (OS 10.4.11) for about a month and love its ability to configure individual pages and its speed and superior page rendering ability. But yesterday a strange anomaly suddenly started happening.
Now when I launch OmniWeb instead of bringing up my home page, which has been the same site since I registered the browser, it keeps opening an eBay page that I was browsing for a time yesterday. Clicking the "Home" icon brings up the correct page. Is this a bug or is there an adjustment somewhere that would correct this?
 
Hello,
You can choose the startpage in preferences/general (command+,).

Thanks, Sangheeta; as I mentioned in my post, my start page is already set in Preferences.
With some noodling about I've located the source of the problem. While I was on the page that keeps coming up on launch yesterday I got curious about the "Workspace" option and managed to embed that page in Workspace. I even took a picture of it. Now I can't get rid of the entry. OmniWeb Help says you can delete Workspaces but the "Delete" button for Workspace is greyed out and I can't find another way to delete the page. There's nothing in Preferences that controls Workspace.
So now my question becomes: How do I delete an item in Workspace when the Delete button is greyed out (and why is it?)
 
You can try to create a new workspace and delete the previous.
 
Found the solution on my own:
Home->Library->Application Support->OmniWeb5->Workspace. Deleted "Default."
 
Hello,

Just thought I would mention that it sounds like you had a snapshot of your workspace taken. If you had closed all the open windows then selected "Take Snapshot" from the workspace menu things probably would have gone back to normal for you.
