- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12889199, 7 years agoThe add-on includes a lot of helpful options, most of which you can deactivate if you feel you won't use.
However, there's one I can't seem to deactivate: how do I disable the site hosting country flag next to the address bar? Thanks in advance!
EDIT: Whoops my bad, thank you!Developer response

"Disabling the Tab IP also disables its process and listeners as well as Country Flag Display of host location." - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13438559, 7 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Marco Santos, 7 years agoI love your plugin. Thank you for your hard work and your effort to make it even better.
I just have a small request to ask. Would it be possible an option to turn off just the Host Location Country Flag function?
I ask you this because I already use Country Flags & IP Whois extension – which is more specific to my needs - and I really don’t need two flags appearing simultaneously!
Edit: thank you for your response. Should've read the help file.Developer response
posted 7 years agoThank you for your kind comments. Yes, it is possible to turn it off. Disable the 'Copy Tab IP' and the flag, Copy Tab and their associated processes will be turned off. It is also mentioned in the Help. - Rated 5 out of 5by Cyberknight, 7 years agoThe list of tab actions is amazing (I only use a couple of them regularly, but it's good to know they are there on the rise of the occasion to use the others, as I actually needed recently). It could have actions to move tabs to another window and merge all tabs of current window to another window (instead of merging all tabs of all windows into one window).
The newly added tab counting is very useful, made me discard another add-on I had just for that purpose. This feature has a glitch, some times it doesn't update or correctly count the tabs, what is instantly solved by clicking on FoxyTab's icon, which is, in a way, preferable than the 'settimeout' approach most counting add-ons use, as that tend to consume resources and slowdown Firefox when there are many open and running tabs. Maybe it could use an event trigger to fix that (a few tab counting add-ons use them), but that's not a really big issue (and a not very well thought trigger could also be a burden to the browser).
I miss an indicator that the auto-reload is active on a tab (and, maybe, a counter of how many tabs are set to auto-reload), but it works very well and flawlessly.
As a suggestion for features, FoxyTab could have actions for Containers (A.K.A. Firefox's "user context"), like setting a default context for new tabs, switching context, setting all tabs in a window to a chosen context, moving all tabs of a context to another window and whatnot...
Anyway, congratulations for the great work!Developer response

AFA containers, TBH, I haven't looked into them yet, not even for general use. I will get to them one of these days.
There isn't any WE API to allow context-menu to be updated before it is shown at the moment so I can't add a reload count to the context-menu. Adding a marker (e.g. in the tab title) could be possible, but that requires getting into page content which FoxyTab isn't aiming to do. However, I can add it to the toolbar button pop-up, once I write the feature (another feature was also requested that could be added there). - Rated 5 out of 5by Dypsis, 7 years agoThis would be great if there was an undo closed tab option showing a list of recently closed tabs.

Please post all support questions/requests to the support topic. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12677137, 7 years agoThank you for this extension! Very simple, very effective. Also works on Pale Moon ^_^ Would you consider supporting the non-WebExt version for a while?
Developer response
posted 7 years agoThe Non-WebExt works until FF57 and should continue to work on Pale Moon. AMO will not accept any update to the non-WebExt version anymore. The features are identical (except that the v2.0 also has a contextmenu icon). If there are any issues, let me know via the support page and I will see what can be done.
