- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 15015452, 5 years agowith a lucky guess, I've mod'ed your background.js so this very useful extension works in a manner that makes more sense to me, i.e. if I ask to view a picture, it should be shown, not hidden ... the lucky guess? in your "browser.tabs.create" section, I changed "active: false" to "active: true" and images now are brought to the front when your very worthy context menu option is selected ... would've been nice if your management page had a "Background/Foreground" option, but perhaps my small change will help others ... thanks for your work

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14043947, 7 years agoThis is great for mouses with broken middle click buttons! Would be perfect if bookmarks on toolbar open in new tab with this feature as well!
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13534191, 7 years agothis extension are super helpful. thanks. BTW can you add an 'exception' feature? like, still able to right clicking element that contain images, etc.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13452012, 7 years agoCould you please make a setting check box for left key to work the same way ?
(I mean I want to use left click to open new tab in background) - Rated 5 out of 5by revija, 7 years agoStrange thing - works perfectly on x64 Windows, but on x86 do both on right click: opens page in bg tab and shows context menu.
Update: found the reason - 'absolute enable right click' script was running.
It would be great if it's possible to add function 'Long Right Click' (about 300ms or configurable) which opens link context menu.
UPD2. I know that. But to press ctrl I have to put away my beer can, which isn't productive.Developer response
posted 7 years agoYou can ctrl+click to get the context menu.
Update: I'll consider adding a long right click option to the next version. - Rated 5 out of 5by Marco, 7 years agoPlease add compatible with Linkificator 3.1.1 and link bookmark, thank's
- Rated 5 out of 5by maiamaia, 7 years agoThis worked perfectly and i loved it, then i stupidly disabled it and it wouldn't work again, rightclick just got the usual submenu 'open in new tab, open in new container tab (what's one of those?) etc', and i've deleted my old profile and reinstalled all my addons, reinstalled, disabled enabled, everything, and still the same. So it would be a clear 6/5 but i went and ruined it, let me be a warning to others! Well i now managed to disabled container tabs, but it said it was already disabled, but before that option kept coming up. Anyway, i'm not disabling it ever again like i used to the old firefox version :)

Developer response
posted 7 years agoNot really sure what happened here. Is it working again now? There have been no changes to the extension, so I'm not exactly sure how I can fix this. - Rated 5 out of 5by Ap11o, 7 years agoThe add-on is working fine, but every time Fx starts (I am using 58 Nightly and Windows) a yellow alert appears across the top of the page warning that it is slowing down Fx and asking if I want to stop or remove it - but this alert also disappears too quickly for me to select any of those options! Not that I would.
Developer response
posted 7 years agoI believe this is due to the manner in which the extension listens for changes to the DOM. It's a bit of heavy code, but generally runs fast. I'll try out a few different approaches and see if I can get away with Firefox not throwing the slow extension warning. Thanks for bringing this to my attention. - Rated 5 out of 5by pr_woktoss, 8 years agoThank you Bg Dam!
Would even be better if right clicking on toolbar bookmarks would open tabs. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firebreathing, 8 years agoRolling back to version 0.0.3 allows this great extension to work again. An uninstall of the extension, followed by a re-install was required. But now it works again. :)
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 10244801, 8 years agoDoes what it is supposed to do.
Edit: not working on https://addons.mozilla.org/ (I just get the right click menu)
And settings are not saved in about:addons.
Edit: I just realized that when I disable Noscript the setting sticks.Developer response
posted 8 years agoAddons are not allowed to inject content scripts on addons.mozilla.org. Per https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Add-ons/WebExtensions/Content_scripts, injecting a content script on AMO, causes a CSP error to be logged. This is AMO policy, and no web extension which relies on a content script will work on AMO.
Regarding the settings not being saved, I cannot reproduce this, so can you provide step by step instructions? Please note that once a setting is changed, you might have to reload already loaded pages for the settings change to come into effect.
