by Firefox user 14117861, 7 years agoOh, thank you so much, Al!
This is exactly what I want & had in the previous version of FF.
The only thing I would change is make the check box for Titles to default to checked &
if the user doesn't want it, they just have to uncheck the box.
It's better to have all the info possible (especially with your clipboard & export options),
and then just remove what you don't want.
Thanks for doing such a good job on this!
It saves time from other add-ons where I had to manually separate each tabs' info.
Now if you could do a new Session Manager like Michael Kraft wrote for the old version,
a lot of people would be so grateful to you. Think about it! You're that good!
Gratefully,
Aileen

posted 7 years agoHello Aileen,
Thank you for your feedback.
I want to preserve the current behavior which is to have the most "machine readable" version activated by default. I have had feedback from users who, for instance, merge their exports and remove duplicates. It is easier done with URLs only because titles (or lack of) can be tricky do deal with in the event of an automatic post process.
That being said, you are absolutely right that clicking that checkbox everytime is one click too many for users who systematically include titles. One way to solve this is for the extension to "remember" the state of that checkbox so that, if you want to include titles, you would only have to click the checkbox once and for all.
There is an open issue about it : https://github.com/alct/export-tabs-urls/issues/1 - that is definitely a feature that I will add.
