    The best addon replacement for "Tabs group" ! Simply the best.

    Easy and powerfull, I recommand that extension.

    The missing star will be add when "tabhiding" will be supported. If this link can help the dev : https://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/7g0s4t/tab_hiding_api_is_being_actively_worked_on/

    When this feature is added, I will make it support.

    Upd:
    Please, update addon to latest version. In latest version I added option to fast switch groups and auto load only active tab, not all tabs.

    Thanks for your feedback!

    I know its not your fault, that Firefox 57 can not hide tabs, but without it its not compareable to the known "tab group" feature. Expl: With this close/reload of all tabs i loose all the states of all open pages and switching between groups needs a lot of time. Lets hope together that Firefox fastly comes around with a working tab hide feature. More about: https://wiki.mozilla.org/WebExtensions/TabHiding

    Edit: You are right. I was drove by my bad feelings. Stars up.

    Hi there :)
    great job with this add-on! The only thing i'm really missing is the ability to let musik play in one group, while i'm active in the other one. Is this possible somehow? Would be great to hear from you ;)

    Keep on doing great work buddy

    Please, update addon to latest version. Key switching was added
    Ctrl+1 - prev group
    Ctrl+2 - next group

    and up, down, left, right on popup

    You can load Youtube or music players in other windows (other groups) and switch groups thought keys without closing tabs :)

    Спасибо большое за плагин! Отличное начало. Ваша работа дает надежду всему сообществу :-)
    Возможно ли в будущем избежать перезагрузки вкладок при смене группы? Или есть техничекие препятствия со стороны новой платформы FF?

    Спасибо за Ваш отзыв!

    Обновление всех вкладок - это особенность нового Firefox API.
    Мне тоже это не нравиться, но я ищу обходной путь.

    This morning I was distressed to find my version of Firefox had automatically updated and my tab groups were gone. Noooo! However, I'm pleased to have found this new replacement. I've been using it about 10 minutes so far ;-) My only suggestions at this point would be the option to name the groups, and to be able to drag and drop between groups. Other than that, THANK YOU for creating this. I don't want to go back to the stone ages with all my tabs open at the top.
    Have a great day! :)

    Thanks for your review!

    I will work on the plugin and add a new functionality to it
    In the future version I plan to add support for Drag & Drop tabs and groups

    I just begin to use this add-on today and it's a good one to replace Tab Groups for the moment.
    I just find a bug : it doesn't save tab if it contains a file saved on computer (i.e. something like file:///C:/Users/....htm)
    This tab seems to stay in the current tabs, even if you change the group.

    Hi. Thanks for your review. Now I can't fix "file:" bug:

    https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Add-ons/WebExtensions/API/tabs/create
    For security reasons, in Firefox, this may not be a privileged URL. So passing any of the following URLs will fail:
    chrome: URLs
    javascript: URLs
    data: URLs
    file: URLs (i.e., files on the filesystem. However, to use a file packaged inside the extension, see below)
    privileged about: URLs (for example, about:config, about:addons, about:debugging). Non-privileged URLs (e.g., about:blank) are allowed.


    But, i am working on it...
