posted 7 years agoGlad you like it!
1. You could configure Left Clicks (Global or per Website) to open in a new Temporary Container - that way they get focus.
2. In a future version there will be a way to activate "Isolation" (Global and per Website) which will open *all* Tabs and Links opened by Tabs in a new Temporary Container - even when opened programmatically; and that's what's happening with Foxy Gestures. With that feature you could achieve opening Links with gestures in new Temporary Containers. Another way would be to get in touch with the Foxy Gestures developer and ask him if he'd be willing to implement an API for other WebExtensions that allows to register to events inside the Foxy Gestures WebExtensions (that way I could get the information that the tab was opened by Foxy Gestures).
If that doesn't help, you need further assistance with configuring or you got some Feedback from the Foxy Gestures Developer then please open an Issue on GitHub (https://github.com/stoically/firefox-add-on-temporary-containers/issues).
Edit (18. Feb 2018):
Support for Foxy Gestures User Scripts are now available, you can find them here: https://github.com/stoically/firefox-add-on-temporary-containers/wiki/Foxy-Gestures-User-Scripts

- Rated 5 out of 5by Tucker, 10 months agoWorks great! It'd be cool if there was a shortcut to convert temporary containers into permanent ones for when you create a new account that you want in a separate container.

- Rated 3 out of 5by eriador, a year agoI love this addon and have been using it for 5 years now, but recently I noticed a weird issue: when I open a few links from my bookmarks in rapid succession, the tabs get stuck and I can't switch tabs anymore or do anything else. It doesn't happen when this addon is disabled.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18433470, a year agoFantastic add-in that I use daily for both personal and work-related needs.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Durg, a year agoRest in peace @stoically. This is a wonderful piece of work. If any eager coders out there can lend a hand in forking this project, I and many others would greatly appreciate that. My use case is to set the isolation behaviour on middle click to "always" so you can continue browsing within a given container, while opening new tabs in new ones.

Due to "helpful" changes in firefox around the end of 2023, you may want to set `browser.link.force_default_user_context_id_for_external_opens` to true in about:config . Doing this ensures that links opened from other applications doesn't end up in some existing temporary containers.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18051002, 2 years agoThis is a must have and one of the main reasons I keep using Firefox.
My only concern is that is has not been updated in a while, but other than that, it works great. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14349082, 2 years agoVery nice extension, does exactly what it says, perfect for development.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Passerby, 2 years agoWow, what a very well made extension with great customization options!
First of all it does exactly what is says on the tin!
And second, it has a huge amount of options. Like you can even choose a random color each time a temporary container opens *and* you can exclude colors that you already use with some other container! That is awesome.
