Is there a way to have selected tab groups open as part of your homepage start up? I currently have my homepage set with a number of custom urls.

For example - https://www.amazon.com|https://www.ebay.com|https://www.weather.com

I would like to combine the first 2 into a tab group named "shopping" and when I open firefox fresh I would like to see the collapsed shopping group and the weather tab.

I tried to set this up then pressed the "Use Current Pages" in settings, but all it did was remove tabs that I had placed in the tab group, so when I opened firefox, they just weren't there. I was able to use the down arrow on the tab bar to find my group and open it, but I would just rather see it on startup instead of having to go look for it.

Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions.

I have v138.0.1, Tab Groups

When I right click on a tab there is no "Add to group" option in the sub-menu. When Firefox updates it tells me I can use "Tab Groups" apparently not.

Hello, I use Firefox Containers and, for better accessibility (I struggle with finding the right container as is), I would like to be able to re-order them alphabetically at least, if not also by color, icon, or other useful factors. Is there a way to do this currently? If not, is it in the works? If not, can you help put it in the pipeline, please? Best regards, Henry

I usually keep between 15-20-30 tabs open at a time and like to keep about 5-7 at the far left. Just lately Firefox has started automatically on its own shifting my tabs that were far left all the way to the end on the far right. It is always just one at a time and then sometime later another and another.

How do I fix this?

Sorry if this has been resolved before, but I would like a way to disable moving tabs around within a single browser. I'm accidentally pulling them off of their original spot when clicking without realizing it, and feeling like an absolute dingus for moving it back dozens of times a day.

I like the new consolidated tabs feature, can an indicator be added to show when sub tabs (web page links) have received notifications? For example: I get an email but don't know it because the colored tab doesn't indicate it. So I have to open all tabs to see which ones have new notifications. I have multiple emails, messages etc... within the main tab but no way to know if a message has been sent without opening the tab.

When the vertical tab bar is enabled, if there are no pinned tabs, when the mouse hovers over the vertical tab bar, the scrollbar will be in the exact position to display the active tab. However, if there are pinned tabs, when the mouse hovers over the vertical tab bar, the scrollbar will always be at the top.

Why are my tabs moving to the right once I've clicked on it? I have a decent amount of tabs open at any time. I keep tabs with related sites grouped together. The past week or so, when I open a tab, Firefox moves it to the right and completely screws up my organization. Is there a way to delete this function? It is new and has only just started to happen.

I have "Open tabs in links instead of new windows" checked.

I have no plug-ins that would cause this.

I have experimented with the various, conflicting "about:config" directions given online. (Nothing works, so I have reset about:config to default.)

  • It is also worth noting the Firefox Support page is immune to its own Dark mode. WHY.

I am going to switch to Opera, since it has none of these problems.

Before commenting or responding on this post, make sure you actually READ IT first. I am so tired of these online MANSPLAINERS being all, "Go to about:config and do blah-blah-blah," or, "This is what you do: Go to Settings > General > Tabs > make sure you check the box that says "Open tabs in links instead of new windows."

Seriously, way too many people online are like customer support agents on the phone: "Try unplugging it and wait 15 seconds, then plug it back in; try closing it and restarting it."

If anyone has any real solution, I'd greatly appreciate it.

I use Firefox for work and need to have a lot of tabs open, in a certain order, in a single window.

Frequently, when I click on a tab, Firefox moves that tab all the way to the right and I have to scroll over and move it back to its proper place. It also sometimes happens when I type in a text field on a tab and hit return. The tab "disappears" and I find it all the way to the right. It never used to do this in older versions of Firefox.

I don't think I'm doing something different than usual to trigger it. It just seems to be at random.

I really need to figure out how to stop Firefox from doing this. It's frustrating, disruptive, and slows down my work.

Platform: MacOS Ventura 13.7.5 and Firefox 137.0.2

Thank you in advance for any help you can give.

My Firefox browser window has multiple tabs. I would like to be able to close them individually. The tabs do not have the 'x' symbol on them to be able to close them conventionally. I tried to right-click on the individual tabs, but the drop down menu does not have the option available to close the tab either. I tried rebooting the computer but when I open Firefox again, the same tabs are still there rather than opening up a fresh browser window with only the start tab window. I am using Windows 11 with this computer also. Help!!!
