Reviews for Container Tabs Sidebar
Container Tabs Sidebar by Maciej Mionskowski
Review by LeeteqXV
Rated 5 out of 5
by LeeteqXV, 2 years agoA true revolution in my browser usage.
I wish 2 things might be adjusted, though:
a) Put the active container name at the end of the Titlebar so we know where we are when using the auto-collapsed setting, and
b) add 5-10px padding to the right side of the sidebar as it happens all the time that one click on the pop-up scrollbar instead of hitting the expand icon.
EDIT: (unchanged: original text/comment above is from 2022, 2 years ago)(still 5 stars from me)
c) Now (2024) that the following has been fixed in the new Firefox v.123;
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1333395
(Container tabs sort order),
- it seems that this addon can now be updated to allow us to re-order the containers?
That is the missing part here, really need to be able to (re-)order the containers.
d) FYI: I am happily using the following custom CSS with this addon, giving nice coloring, contrasts, highighting of the current/active tab, and spacing. I think that something like this could be included in the addon as either a default suggestion, or in the text explanation above that CSS field for people to easily copy/paste into that field.
/** :root { --padding: 0.45em; }
body { font-size: 0.9em; }
Ref..: https://github.com/maciekmm/container-tabs-sidebar/blob/master/src/sidebar/style.css
**/
body { background: maroon; }
.tab-active {
background: maroon !important;
}
.container-tab {
background: green;
margin-left: 15px;
font-weight: bold;
}
.container {
padding-right: 20px !important;
font-weight: bold;
color: black !important);
}
.container-tab-close, .container-tab-close:hover {
position: absolute;
background: #333;
border-radius: 20px;
padding: 2px;
left: 2px;
top: 50%;
transform: translateY(-50%);
}

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13790591, a year agoIt does what I was looking for. All the tabs in the corresponding container and easily accessible from the sidebar.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Predefine6856, 3 years agoThis is great. Works perfectly and the setting to use custom CSS allowed me to make it look exactly how I wanted (needed the container tab indented to make it easier to differentiate container name and tabs)
.container-tab { padding-left: 40px }
Thanks for creating this and sharing it! - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 17357383, 3 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by HexaDroid, 3 years agoI really like the addon, the text was too small for me. But with the custom CSS I was able to increase it. @Developer. Is there a CSS I could add to increase the size of the 'pinned icons'? If I would be able to make those bigger, it would be perfect!
EDIT: thanks for the response below. Worked perfectly. Maybe it would be nice to include some sliders for the non techies :)Developer response
posted 3 years agoHello,
you can achieve this via:
```css
#pinned-tabs .container-tab .favicon {
min-height: 30px;
min-width: 30px;
flex-basis: 30px;
}
```
Thank you for your kind review! - Rated 5 out of 5by やきゅ, 3 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Jay, 3 years agoExactly the extension i was looking for. This should also be a Firefox default!
- Rated 5 out of 5by WorldSerpent, 3 years agoI am using this add-on along side Containerise and its one of my favorite combos now. Works great for my purpopses.

- Rated 1 out of 5by FoxyLovy, 3 years agoWould be helpful if it showed the tabs of ALL FIREFOX WINDOWS. But it only displays tabs open in the current window, which is useless because you can already see the tab names at the top...
- Rated 5 out of 5by ap0xgaming, 3 years agoBro, you are the best. I am dealing with up to 90 containers and before I found the side bar.. you can imagine the pain of scrolling through the list . Fqking hero you are, thank you Maciej!
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 17003334, 3 years agoThis addon would be perfect if I could select multiple tabs in the sidebar by shift or ctrl clicking.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Max, 3 years agoGreat addon! Thank you!
Added: Color bars appeared again in version 96.
Please pay attention, that color bars on tabs are no longer visible in the latest FF proton interface.
Added: I'm running the latest release - 91.0.1. Maybe the problem will be solved when 93 come to release.
More detailed description:
Previously there was a color bar above each non-default tab. Now the color bar disappeared, only the color frame around URL box is on its place.
I'm talking about the blue bar above the "New tab" on this screenshot taken from another container addon: https://addons.cdn.mozilla.net/user-media/previews/full/196/196940.pngDeveloper response
posted 3 years agoHello Max,
I am running Firefox 93.0a and see color bars on containers. Could you describe in more detail the issue you have observed?
Thank You for the review. - Rated 5 out of 5by Pnévma, 3 years ago
