- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 14457817, 5 years agoIt would be great if it have button "ignore hidden tabs".
- Rated 5 out of 5by Kevin Jones, 5 years agoSimple, elegant, superb.
I use it for back up; if I have a meltdown and I want to restore I can use data in a scratchpad script in Browser context. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 15186303, 5 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by smaragdus, 6 years agoThe extension is very handy and the developer is very helpful.
- Rated 5 out of 5by SX, 6 years agoI believe by now that I have tried every one of these simple tab list Add-Ons, which is why I can confidently say that this is my current favorite for exporting my list of active tabs. It has most of the options I need, and keeps the interface simpe and quick!
In a PERFECT World I would love for it to build-in 2 features I would find extremely useful.
[1] A Load Multiple Tabs from URL List feature, so then you can reimport previously exported tabs. I currently use a separate Add-On to handle this.
[2] The ability to include "Discarded" tabs (placeholder tabs which many extensions leave with a useful Window Title. Most of the extensions use the built-in Firefox Discarding method, so it may be possible to interface against.Developer response
posted 6 years agoHello,
Thank you for your feedback.
Could you please open an issue/feature request on Github about discarded tabs (and provide some examples of extension using such features)? https://github.com/alct/export-tabs-urls/issues
As you have noticed, I try to keep the UX clean and straightforward. Every decision regarding features is taken with that aspect in mind. I have been thinking about how to implement an "import" feature for a long time but have not figured out yet how to best do it. There is an open feature request about it ;-) https://github.com/alct/export-tabs-urls/issues/11 - Rated 4 out of 5by arnofly, 6 years agoThe extension's choice for exported file (like htm/html) could be a good upgrade. Thank developer.
EDIT: Import feature is needed, Thx ;)Developer response
posted 6 years agoHello,
This can already be achieved using a "custom format" ;-)
In the options (click on the gear icon in the upper right corner of ETU), set something like this in the "Custom format" field: https://gist.githubusercontent.com/alct/8674d11a7a8a605371b6928c420c8209/raw/0dbb92938230327cada9eb92a601fb755b388598/gistfile1.txt
And save your file with the ".html" extension. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14827118, 6 years agoit was Helpful why u block this we need it give us back.

posted 6 years agoHello,
If ETU disappeared from your browser, it is related to an ongoing Firefox issue (it affects almost all add-ons and Firefox users), see https://blog.mozilla.org/addons/2019/05/04/update-regarding-add-ons-in-firefox/
Hopefully, it is going to be fixed sooner than later. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14792668, 6 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14734734, 6 years agoQuick and painless. I needed something save my 200 tabs before trying to revert back to an old Firefox
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14727022, 6 years agoPerhaps I don't quite understand this, but putting the tabs in a text file leaves no easy way to re-open them, so, I think this is more effort than it is worth.

This review was not meant to be negative; you are correct it works exactly as described; but, it is just not as useful as I had hoped. I do, however, appreciate the effort you put into development.

OK, you have swayed me, I went from 3 to 5 stars.
However, it would be much more useful you could import the text file back into the browser at a later date and re-open all the tabs.Developer response
posted 6 years agoHello,
For a developer, it is quite unfair and discouraging to get a negative review because the extension works exactly as described.
If the extension works as expected but does not fit your workflow, do not use it and do not leave a negative review. There are plenty of other extensions dedicated to managing tabs, there is probably another one that would fit your needs ;-)
Edit:

If the review is not meant to be negative, do not rate the extension 3 out of 5... By any standard, that is a negative review. If you feel like discussing about features requests, improving the UI/X, do not hesitate to join/create a discussion on https://github.com/alct/export-tabs-urls/issues , I'm always willing to discuss and already have improved ETU thanks to user feedback.

Cool :-) Let's continue the discussion on github (which is better suited for these kinds of back and forth) if you don't mind ;-)
