- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13884010, 7 years agoLove the grouping feature and that I can close individual tabs with their own [x] button without having to first navigate to them.
Some ideas:
- Visually maybe it would be best to show each tab's [x] button on hover though
- Should be able to drag left to ungroup (unindent) one level and drag right to group under the previous (above) item
- Also, it would be really if a filter box was on the top to select which tabs to show (filter titles using typed substring). Indentations should be remembered (that is have invisible parents if those are filtered out). If hard to implement, it could at least highlight found items or gray out items not found. Could also have that as option and could have Previous/Next button to select next tab that matches the filter - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13335608, 7 years agoBUG report: 3.9.21 broken, reverted to 3.9.19 and that fixed it.
When it works, it works. absolutely necessary. - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13867608, 7 years agoI really love this extension because it makes organising my tabs so much easier and logical. One issue though is that when I restore tab after a crash, I lose all the trees. I have to manually make the trees again which can be pretty annoying. It would be fantastic if you could fix that

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13862714, 7 years agoMakes your tabs more like a folder list. You can collapse individual branches of the tree and really see a whole lot of tab roots all at once. This is the way all tabs should be done in every browser!
- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 13497124, 7 years ago【Bug report】After the last update in March. The tree bar stays in loading status forever, cant see any tabs but a loading icon.
But if I disable and then enable this addon, everything goes well.
It happens everytime when I open firefox. - Rated 5 out of 5by tenmyo, 7 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by PleaseStandBy, 7 years agoNumber 1 add-on of any add-on that has ever existed:
A+ | 10/10 | - Rated 5 out of 5by Felininho, 7 years agoMust have. Cannot use a browser without it. No other add-on has the same feature. Thanks a lot!
- Rated 5 out of 5by Valery Plotnik, 7 years agoThe reason why I am still using firefox and love it very much. This is must have addon, that makes life easier and more organized.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Thomas Bertels, 7 years agoGreat extension!
The only thing that could be improved is a default smaller tab height like before the WebExtensions version. But it can be changed with a code snippet found on the extension wiki. - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13839596, 7 years ago
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13503367, 7 years agoUPDATE 7/12/21:
Since my last update a year ago, pretty much all problems of which I was aware have been fixed.
But since the last update (or maybe the one before that--but recently, in any case), a new one has cropped up:
When coming back to a Firefox session from Windows Sleep mode, TST has unloaded, and the main toolbar icon is gone. I've also seen this happen after a Firefox restart or crash. Going into the View menu to re-enable TST doesn't work, as it's also gone from there.
I've noticed at least one recent review that reports this problem when "starting Firefox."
The only work-around I've found is to open the Add-ons and Themes page, disable TST, re-enable TST, then go to the View menu to re-load TST in the sidebar.
It's a recoverable problem, but it's a pain to have to do this every day (and some times two or three times a day).
UPDATE 7-21-20:
Since the last Firefox update (to 78.0.2 64-bit), almost every time I left-click on a tab in the sidebar, instead of just selecting the tab, TST executes the "Move tab to new window" action. If the tab has children, the entire tree is moved to a new window. (I say "almost every time" as there may be one time in about ten that TST does not do this).
Needless to say, this is extremely annoying, as I then have to move my tabs (one at a time) from the new window back into the original window.
If I remember to do so, I can select tabs normally from the top tab bar, but muscle memory is ingrained for TST's sidebar, at this point, so I frequently forget to do that.
I don't know if this problem is due to a change in Firefox or in TST, as I'm clear on how their latest updates might be interacting. I can say that TST v3.5.13 did NOT fix the problem.
UPDATE 12-31-19:
The parent/child tab separation happens rarely now (and it's been a few months since I've seen it happen, so that bug may have been squashed.
ORIGINAL REVIEW:
Works pretty well, but sometimes child tabs get separated from the parent tab and other child tabs, with non-associated tabs in between. I've not seen a pattern to when this happens, unfortunately. At least the tabs are lost, but it can get confusing. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13836206, 7 years agoCame to it as a replacement for Tab Groups when Firefox Quantum stopped supporting that one. Was great while it worked, but now it just shows the loading icon forever; both on Linux and Windows. EDIT: After update works perfectly again
