✨ This release makes Tab Wrangler explain itself more thoroughly. Why are tabs not getting closed? Why is the active tab's timer not counting down? - the UI now explains those cases.

Tab Groups have been both in Firefox and in Chrome for a while, and now Tab Wrangler renders them as well!

• [#267] - Preserve tab times when the extension is paused (previously tab times were reset to the max when resuming)
• [#277] - (Firefox only) Add Tab Wrangler context menu to tabs
• [#302] - Enable configuring time in days, hours, minutes, seconds
• [#491] - Explain state when tabs are not getting closed

Issues

• [#535] - Fixed an issue where the active tab could be closed in rare circumstances

Full Changelog: https://github.com/tabwrangler/tabwrangler/compare/v8.1.0...v8.2.0

"Tab Corral" is the default tab again in this release following two requests to change it back. As "Tab Lock" gains more features the UX may be revisited in the future.

Enhancements
[#557] - Revert to "Tab Corral" as default tab

Issues
[4b19d99, 96a65b5] - Avoid situations where popup may take several seconds to open

Tab Wrangler now preserves your tab times and locked tabs + windows after restarting your browser. Also, it's now possible to lock entire windows! The extension is going to emphasize locking and working with open tabs and windows going forward so the "Tab Lock" tab is now the default.

• [#227] - Firefox: fix importing tabs, split popup and options pages
• [#430] - Update extension icon to show when current tab is locked

Maintain locks and tab times when browser "discards" tabs. When tabs are "discarded" to free memory and system resources the tabs' IDs change - Tab Wrangler was not correctly tracking those ID updates and was losing state.

A release full of languages. Thanks to outside contributors, Tab Wrangler gained a French translation, completed its Spanish translation, and improved its Russian translation. TW will use the language of your browser, so it should be more familiar to you if you normally use French, Spanish, or Russian.

For full release notes see: https://github.com/tabwrangler/tabwrangler/releases/tag/v6.2.0

The first Spanish translations will now appear correctly for those using a Spanish locale. Also, this release further mitigates potential data loss for all users.
