Firefox Community Forum

I recently decided to try vertical tabs in Firefox, and can't find a way to search these tabs as I could when they were horizonal, with the downward pointing arrowhead. If this is a feature, please let me know how to add it to my sidebar, and if not, it would be great if this feature could be developed. Thanks!

I have a firefox that saves each and every window it displays. I would prefer having only the existing windows in my system. For instance, when I click on Firefox and goto all windows there is one only, not 2 to 50 of them. This happens with only one machine and I want to stop it.

I thought I had already sent this but I couldn't find it.

Thoughts?

In recent Firefox versions, the behavior of window.open() has changed. When opening a new window with an empty URL (), Firefox opens a blank tab (about:blank) and then loads the specified content. However, the about:blank tab may not close automatically as it did in earlier versions.

Since the most recent update (137) I have been having an issue where when I switch tabs to an existing open tab, occasionally that tab will be moved to the end (far-right) of the list of tabs. I find this extremely annoying as I often am using tabs to organize what is related to what, and this is undoing my organization.

I can't quite see what the exact trigger is - it's not every time, but it fairly often. It sometimes happens when I try to 'switch to' my current tab, and sometimes it will happen when I'm switching to a different tab.

TAB I am a new user of Firefox and when I open the browser today, I only had the use of one tab on each window. Yesterday, before closing for the night, I had multiple tabs. How do I get tabs so I can open multiple windows on each screen?

There is no longer a 'search tabs' symbol at the top section of the Firefox browser page since I switched to the vertical sidebar for tabs and after searching for help the Mozilla suggestion of ctrl+B just tries to search bookmarks. Please can you help as I have many many tabs always open and use this symbol frequently. Thankyou

I'm fed up with updates. Whomever decided to move opening multiple tabs to the left or right had of the desktop has their head up their ass. It takes up significantly more desktop space now and is nowhere as easy to use as when they were on they tiop of the desktop. Plainly - IT SUCK - no improvement on my 27: iMac

Description: I would like to request the addition of a "Go to Last Used Tab" shortcut, also commonly referred to as a "Recall" feature. This functionality is extremely useful for quickly switching between the last two active tabs without needing to cycle through all open tabs.

Currently, I use Ctrl+Tab to cycle through tabs in order and Ctrl+Shift+Tab to cycle in reverse order. While this works, it is not ideal for scenarios where I frequently need to switch between two specific tabs (e.g., tab #25 for monitoring the progress of a web app and tab #129 for working on an email). In such cases, having a dedicated shortcut to jump directly to the last used tab would significantly improve productivity and usability.

Proposed Solution: Add a new keyboard shortcut (e.g., Ctrl+Backtick or a user-configurable option) that allows users to instantly switch to the last used tab.

Benefits:

   Reduces the need to manually cycle through tabs, saving time.
   Enhances workflow efficiency when multitasking across multiple tabs.
   Aligns Firefox with features available in other modern browsers.
    

Use Case Example:

   I’m actively working on a task in tab #129 (e.g., writing an email).
   I periodically check the progress of a web app in tab #25.
   Instead of cycling through tabs using Ctrl+Tab or searching for the desired tab, I could simply press a "Recall" shortcut to toggle between these two tabs instantly.
    

This feature would greatly enhance the user experience, especially for power users who frequently switch between tabs.

Tough there is an option in Settings that says "When you open a link, image or media in a new tab, switch to it immediately" that can be deactivated, my browser always switch to the new tab/open link/image/etc. It's frustrating. Using Mozilla for Linux Mint mint-001 - 1.0. Version 137.0 (64 bit)

Tabs not opening. Cleared cache and history. Also went to "Trouble Shoot" restore did not work. Uninstalled then reinstalled. Still did not work. Changed Profile. Still not working. Got to this website by typing in website using Safari.

When dragging or selecting a tab it forcibly moves it to the end of the tab bar.

As it would if you pressed move tab to the end, But without actually selecting it. Not sure why it's doing this and nothing is selected and it didn't happen before the update. And it only happens every once in a while.

OK after the code breaking yesterday here is the new code I got that works.

Are tab groups like containers i.e. isolated from the others, so thay I can access sites logged into different accounts for instance or separate browsing experience/cookies ?

Trying out Vertical Tabs, but when doing so an unremovable Flexible Space appears in the Toolbar. You can move it around, but not remove it (image #2 is trying to drag it into the Customise Toolbar icon list). This thing disappears when switching back to Horizontal Tabs.

Any clue why this is happening?

I have vertical tabs enabled and I'm trying to access the tab overview menu to close duplicate tabs. Unfortunately I can't find this menu anymore. If I disable vertical tabs, I can see the icon in the top right. How do

How do I access the tab overview menu when using vertical tabs?

Thanks
