UPDATE: Having some issues upon moving tabs with runaway memory (consumes ALL Ram and eventually crashes FF.) Cutting way back on the number of open windows and tabs temporarily helped - but not any more. Wish there was a forum.

I HAVE 27 FF WINDOWS across 18 Virtual Desktops and this works almost perfectly. It's always reliable. Just a couple of issues to watch: 1) if you select the top tab in a nest, the entire nest will be moved. 2) The "move to" context window lists all 27 windows, but the list order is "as created" and tough-lucksky trying to find your window. So Guido - that's one feature update that would be worthy of a revisit. THANKS.

Does what I wanted it to, which is to give me a way to move tabs between windows without dragging them around. No idea why this isn't built-in like it is on Chromium browsers, but at least we can get there with extensions.

Only niggle I have is that it would be nice if it either detected when I have the extension disabled for private windows or allowed the option to just show it as a single submenu. The "Close and Reopen in Window" option is nearly always grayed out and useless.

Does what it says on the tin. Even better, you can select multiple tabs and move them all to another window.

Does what it needs to do

This should be a native option. Until that happens, this extensions does the work magnificently.

I love it.

Thank you for making this add-on, for not making it do more than it should, and for raising it to play nice with other add-ons. I think I speak for the majority of Firefox's "power users" when I say it's highly appreciated and sadly a bit rare.

I was a bit surprised to find that within a few weeks, I had apparently switched to, or started using, all of your add-ons. And it's for that specific reason.

F**g Noah couldn't build an ark that would fit all the half-assed features we see poorly implemented in 95% of add-ons. Is it cold out there? Search AMO for "youtube" and install all "enhancers." What you'll see is the only phenomenon we've found that generates actually *near Crysis level* heat. The core just isn't stable yet.

My first add-on will be a POC of it hehe. Naming it "Firestarter for YouTube." Seriously though, we see a lot of fat, middle-aged add-ons that are "not great, not terrible," which isn't always enough these days.

I sit here with 3 Firefox profiles running, 3 windows opened for each, and 250-350 tabs per window. So installing a well thought-out add-on that does its job great, doesn't starve for attention, has clean and consistent icons/look/feel, it's just great to be able to see the scope and impact of what I'm installing.

My point is, I love to see this more UNIX-like mentality of building small, interchangeable programs with narrow focus, and combining them to achieve much more for much less.

EDIT: To give constructive feedback, one thing is the option to choose which context menu it appears on (page right click, for example), and *maybe* some keyboard shortcut feature can be made super-intuitively, but that may require a UI to number the windows or similar. See, scope creep already, damnit. :P

Until next time—over and out. :)

NORD.

excellent. I've tried others and it's difficult to see which window you want to move to. This add-on is very clear and simple. Best in class IMO. I use it with Windows Titler (which allows you to name windows obviously), The title shows in the Window selection dropdown from Tab Mover, so you know exactly which Window you're moving the tab to.

use it very frequently. would love to have some keyboard shortcuts (to assign to move to specific windows) or one to just give a dialog box...otherwise going to have to try to CSS edit the context menu so that the windows are listed on the main context menu for easier moving.

Thank you so much.

Excellent extension. Does one thing and does it well.

I found this especially useful in combination with the 'Window Titler' extension to label windows.

I love the multiselect, but agree with other review that removing the submenu would avoid an unnecessary click.

Sometimes I use private windows to search stupid questions (I don't know why, habit I guess) and forget that I'm in a private window and end up with a bunch of tabs I wish weren't in a private window (so I can use my accounts on websites easily, etc). This extension is perfect for moving a bunch of tabs from private to non-private windows in one go. Just hold Shift, then select the first and last tab. You can then move them all at once with this extension.

It works great. Should have been a built-in function of Firefox.

As a guy with a lot of tabs I found your Addon and its great for me to sort my tabs.

My problem: It is hard to find the correct window where to move my tab to.
Why: the name of the window where to move is depending of actual opend tab in each window - so the name is changing when I leaving window different actual tab.

I have about 5, 6 or more open windows with each of about 10 to 20 tabs. When trying to move a tab, I never know where to move to.
It would be nice to give a name or you name each window automatically (e.g. with the name of the top left tab of each window, not of the current tab used) OR name it with window1 - window2 - and so on OR the order should correlate with the order in the tackbar.
Thanks for answer if you plan a solution or not.

This is the only Tab Moving add-on I found that lets you move multiple tabs in one operation (CTRL-click on a first tab to select, then CTRL-shift-click to end selection, then use the extension). Great for people like me who use lots of tabs. Moving one tab at a time is really tedious. So you can split and merge windows with this.
