Idea for improvement: add lookup field to bookmarks so that it would be easy to find them by (substring) text.

1. Make proxy optional, As paranoid user I can see how that can be quite a scare if you don't need it. I understand it's useful feature but many people won't need to use it.

2.If possible Make it so groups don't require access to all urls. I'd prolly love to create groups to sort my url trees (which is my original purpose of checking this extension and looks great) That said i get paranoid realizing extension has permission to access and modify all my pages.. If you can't do without it.. maybe a way with access to only certain websites ?

I continue to appreciate your extension, it's brought be back to firefox, I've made a donation on the add-on page. One suggestion I'd like to ask is if it's possible in Styles to add the option to highlight a bookmark which is actually been clicked on and the page is open, similar to being able to highlight a folder which is currently open. Hope this makes sense.

Hi and thank you for your great work!
My issue: when a tab is closed the next tab under the closed one will be activated.
My question: is there a way to close a tab and return to previously viewed tab?
I installed "Select After Closing Current" addon but it does not seem to work with sidebery.
running ff on linux with hided native tabs toolbar

If I have many containers, I have to make a wide sidebar to see all the cons of containers, this is very inconvenient.
Add please in "Appearence -> Edit styles" possibility to edit size of container icons, padding and possibility to hide "Create container" button.

No scroll bar:

– is that by design?

It's difficult to use with a trackball.

Google container (a fork of Mozilla's Facebook container, so same concept, different scum) wreaks havoc on sessions. Visiting a Google service will cause a new container workspace to replace all others, including the main workspace. I was only able to fix sidebery after uninstalling both and starting fresh with Sidebery.

Considering the featureset that Sidebery provides, both of these addons are not needed. But you might appreciate the information.

When I click on a link in a web page, that 2nd web page is opened as a child of the 1st one. If I subsequently close the parent, the child is automatically closed with the parent.
This is not right, it should either be an option in the settings, or the child should never be closed automatically. This is extremely annoying.

When I have many tabs open (which is why I use Sidebery and love it :)), I often show and hide the sidebar. Currently, on opening the list is scrolled to the top, so my currently open tam might not be visible.

Proposed behavior: On opening, scroll down so that current tab is in viewport.

I don't know FF extension API, but on web https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Element/scrollIntoView should help:

element.scrollIntoView({ behavior: 'smooth', block: 'center' })

It will probably need to be delayed until after the tabs are loaded (it takes a few hundred milliseconds after starting an extension).

What do you think?

Bookmarks panel with a lot of bookmarks too slow at initializing / opening folders.

Hello. Is it somehow possible to get Sidebery on Chrome? Thanks.

Sometimes sideberry fails to move tags around. See here for an example (you can play gifs with sxiv -a; let me know if you want this in another format):

https://send.firefox.com/download/3809c19b835328b2/#r3P2YpGNpuRvf-dSqTmo4A

Notice the weird "ghost" icon that appears at the very top.

Another related problem I've seen, but haven't recorded:

1. In one window, select a bunch of tags and move them to an empty group tab.
2. In a separate window, try to move a tab.
3. See the tabs from the previous window move to the current window.

I can try to record this if you want me to.

Unless I missed it I see no way to rename a group

Sidebery 2.4.2

How I can customize borders of the tabs?

When I select some container/tab from some container, automatically hide tabs from other containers.
This is very useful feature support e.g. by Conex add-on.

Pros:

• More space for settings.
• It'll be easier to review changes on settings/styles changes.
• Lighter sidebar.

The context menu has some very useful options, but it's missing "undo close tab", which I find essential to recover tabs closed by accident.

Sideberry v2.2.1, Firefox 66.0, Archlinux.

OS: linux x86-64

Extension: 2.0.1
Today, when I opened Firefox, the separate pin favicon was gone, and my pinned tabs are separated from the non-pinned tabs by a horizontal line in a panel that is no longer hidden when not active. Also, Alt+comma and Alt+fullstop don't work anymore.

If possible it would be great if, when using the bookmarks panel, a bookmark folder would autoclose as you switch to a different folder. This then avoids having loads of bookmark folders open all at once.

Minor enhancement request.
When you want to move tab to a position that is outside, but below last entry of a tree, most of the times tab ends up at the bottom of a tree even if intention is for it to be outside.

I feel there should be some marking when it's gonna end up in a tree or outside, like some glow around arrow, dotted line or simple indentation.

I'm guessing indentation or some other marking that shows it would do better in case of multi level trees.

Thank you for this productivity add on. No sure if is an issue or feature request or some setting we need to do. we have the Pinned group and each group for each container. But can we see the pinned tabs in each contain group and in the pinned tab group?

I enabled the "access website data" permission, and it pegged my CPU at 100%. After a while, Firefox crashed, and I found this in dmesg:

[186727.730014] WebExtensions[5951]: segfault at 0 ip 00005648c8c65d8d sp 00007ffdf164c620 error 6 in firefox[5648c8c64000+1f000]

Upon relaunch, I found that I lost several tabs; some were pinned, and others were inside a container.

I'm using v2.4.1, Firefox 66.0.3 and Arch Linux. When I right-click on a tab, I don't get a context menu. The context menu used to work on v2.4.0.

Provide a way to customize context menu for each "context" - tab[s] / bookmarks[s] / global.

Bug faced with version 2.2.1.
Steps to reproduce:

• have default (DFLT) container and containers A and B, each with some tabs
• have DFLT container active with its tabs
• switch to container B
• switch to DFLT container
• BUG:
  ** Sidebery shows tabs from container A
  ** Firefox show tabs from DBLT but ALSO one container from A

I cannot see which tabs are pinned, in dark mode. I think there is a divider but it's not very visible. Maybe offer a way to customize the divider color?

When one of my containers is active, and I press "ctrl+t" to oen new tab, it is opens in "Default" container, but the active container does not change, so I also don’t see the active tab

I noticed that Sidebery wasn't showing up/activating for me today, so I tried to remove and reinstall it. However, attempting to install any addons from mbnuqw fails and displays the following error:

All other addons I tried to install from various authors worked as expected. Sidebery, WebAssembly Detector, and WebSocket Detector were the only addons to fail to download/install.

Firefox Nightly 66.0a1 (2019-01-21) (64-bit)
Arch Linux 4.20.3

I've been using Sideberry for less than two hours and it's crashed Firefox twice. I use Arch Linux, and Firefox 65.0.2.

I like the project and I'll keep watching it, but I will uninstall it for now.

The "move to window" functionality is awesome. However, I have more windows open than fit in the sidebar, and I can't scroll to get to all of them. I tried scrolling with the mouse and with keys, and I can't see any scrolling bar.

Discard does not do anything

OS: mac x86-64

Add option to use native context menu using "browser.menus.overrideContext" api.

I want to always close child tabs when a parent is closed. I suspect many users may also want this.
May we have a setting to enable this?

Крутое расширение, не хватает только:

1. Обратной последовательности вкладок
2. "URL автоматической настройки proxy" для proxy.pac АнтиЗапрет
3. Автоматической подгрузки значков закладок

Very grateful that autoclose bookmark folders has been added, I'm now using Sidebery as my main bookmarks sidebar. It would be a big help if there was an option to stay on the bookmarks panel and not automatically switch to the Tabs panel whenever I click on a tab.

When I want to close multiple tabs in a row, I'd love to hold mouse in place and click multiple times. What happens now is that I mouse over the close button, and click. This will close the current tab, and the next tab will appear under the mouse. However, the mouse hasn't moved, so the close button is hidden - and I can't click it.

Ideas:

• somehow detect this situation and manually show the close button?
• or, just make the right side of the tab (same area as close button) aways close the tab - the only way user would click here is if he was already meaning to close it, only the close button didn't appear for some reason (like, not detecting the hover). I quite like this :).

Beautiful vertical tab plugin with tree style view!
I would use this plugin instead of Tree Style Tab if would have this feature:

Ability to save a whole tab tree as bookmarks, eg. by right click on the tab tree.

So, right now right click on a tab opens the context menu with entries like "Move to ..., Reopen in ..., Group, Pin, ...".
Another really handy entry would be "Bookmark this tab / tree".

For a single tab it would simply create a new bookmark. For a tab tree, it would create a bookmark folder with all the child tabs inside (with a folder structure respresenting the tab tree).

I use this feature in Tree Style Tab to manage sessions, that I can close and open later again.

Add editor for customizing all css styles.
It should be a separate page with examples, list of all available css selectors and textarea for styles.

Wondering if you guys plan to implement customization on the web favicon across multiple accounts ?
Now, we can "tell" which account is which by colors,

Is that possible to add favicon for each container accounts. since Firefox can differentiate by color,
I am using favicon-customizer
. but with multiple containers it is not that useful anymore.

• Firefox 66.0.3
• Sidebery 2.4.2

When I click on a pinned tab to select it, the non-pinned tabs scroll down to the bottom tab. This is very inconvenient when there are a large number of tabs. I'm using version 2.1.0.

Is there any way to do this?

I'd like to be able to close a pinned tab (without having to unpin it first). Is there an option to do this?

I have a suggestion, which may or may not make sense given your plans for sideberry, or it may have a solution that I've missed.

Sideberry is tightly integrated with the concept of containers. I've tried to embrace that philosophy (I think containers are a great idea). However, the way I browse and organize my tabs is that I tend to isolate certain websites in certain windows. In Sideberry, I end up with lots of containers, which show up on all windows, but only a couple of which are used in each.

As an example, I have all my reddit and hacker news pages pinned in one firefox window, and I have a "reddit" container for them. In another window, I have all my stackexchange sites, with a "stackexchange" container. And so on. However, I see all containers in all windows, even though most of them are and will remain empty.

My suggestion is to allow the user to configure which containers are visible in which window. A "cheap" way to do this might be simply to hide empty containers. A more involved solution would automatically send all tabs that belong to a container to the window it "belongs" to.

Some suggestions for the bookmarks panel.

• Currently when you mouseover a bookmark, there is a very subtle highlight, the bookmark appears slightly darker. It would look better if the highlight was more obvious.
• When you middle-click on a bookmark, it opens it in a new tab (as expected), but also the mouse scroll icon appears. Would probably be better if the mouse scroll icon didn't appear.
• Would be great if you could drag URL addresses from the address bar to the bookmarks panel to store a bookmark, I don't know if this is possible.
• Thanks again for your work on this extension. I think if its page on mozilla addons site was clearer that sidebery provides an alternative sidebar bookmarks panel that replaces missing features that have disappeared from firefox over the years, there might be a lot of interest.
