For examples of other Chrome URLs that you could use in Fast Dial please see here

Fast Dial 1.x

It was a simple matter in Fast Dial 1.x to load about:config from a cell.
All one had to do was to enter about:config as the URL
And Fast Dial could derive an image of the Config file.
And the cell was immediately useable

This still continues to be the case with FD v1.90 in FF 3.0.4.

Fast Dial 2.x

However with Fast Dial v2.x for reasons that remain still unclear, entering about:config in the URL field for a cell in Properties Menu does not work.

If one enters about:config in the URL field of the cell, for some reason it is changed to about://config/.

This then in turn causes:

To see different users feedback regarding this problem please see this post

A workaround to this problem is the following:

----------------------------------------------

Instead of entering about:config in the URL Field in the Properties Menu
please enter the following:

chrome://global/content/config.xul

This will work fine.

However you will also find that it is neccessary to use a custom image for the cell, for otherwise the cell will refresh endlessly and never load an image.
So please enter a custom image.

A number of great Logos have now been made by Mafia_Penguin especially for using with the about:config cell.
Please find here

When you have entered your Custom Image / Logo click OK and exit

Once the cell is ready, click on the finished cell.

And about:config should open. (name visible in Tab)
