by Onihikage, 8 years agoFirst: If you think the add-on doesn't work, press F1 or click the "Tree Style Tab" button that appears. The options page tells you this, but we all know people are too impatient to read the manual and expect everything to be done for them instantly.
Due to current limitations with WebExtensions (in Firefox 57.0.2), this add-on can't remove tabs from the top of the screen, so the user has to do this themselves by modifying their userChrome.css file. There is a post on the Firefox subreddit detailing how to do this, but I would like to see this guide included or referenced in the options page until such functionality can be added to the WebExtensions API: https://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/736cji/how_to_hide_native_tabs_in_firefox_57_tree_style/
Caveats aside, Tree Style Tab is still an exceptional organizational tool for anyone who has a habit of opening new tabs for everything. With the tree organization, you always know which tab opened from or is related to which other tab, and the options for how you want the tabs to behave are extensive. The only faults I can find have to do with limitations of the new add-on engine, so I can't think of any reason to deduct stars. Great add-on, essential to how I navigate the web.

- Rated 5 out of 5by MicahStone, 11 days agoCan this extension be used to capture information about a FF tab that somehow opens then closes within a second? If so, what settings of this extension will enable this?...I haven't been able to find the correct setting to capture this info.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Odnankenobi, 13 days agoThis extension revolutionized my browser experience. I can work and search much, much better now.
Gonna test this with vertical tabs on the browser soon to see how it goes - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 19291583, 13 days agoNot able to group tabs by domain or regular expression.

- Rated 1 out of 5by algreenpanda, 25 days agoGreat idea, decent execution. And for some reason there's an option for "AI Chatbot". I'm very tired of LLM's being jammed in everywhere they can possibly fit. Whether you are fundamentally for or against AI, this is a wasteful and useless implementation.

- Rated 5 out of 5by talentix, 2 months agoThank you Piro for creating and maintaining this FF extension. It is one of my most importand FF extensions!
I have tried many Vertical Tab extensions. TST is by far the most useful, stable and trustworthy. It has earned its Firefox recommendation by its superiority in all aspects. I also have tried the internal vertical tab view of Firefox. But it is almost not configurable. - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 19131167, 2 months ago

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 18184964, 2 months agoGreat, but it needs a search bar, to look for the tab you can't find (because there are too many, or because it is in a collapsed group).
- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 18379761, 2 months ago5/5 until recent update, I don't know how to remove the new "Tree Style Tab" header in the sidebar above all my tabs but below bookmarks. 2/5 until this is fixed
- Rated 1 out of 5by gaf4nhot0, 2 months agoI was having issues opening new links on new tabs, they always went to the far right. After uninstalling the plugin they started to behave normally opening next to my current tab.
