Session Manager question

Post by tonino2424 »

I am thinking about trying session manager with FF 58. I was wondering if there is a way for the browser to open on the far left tab instead of the far right tab?

thx

How about a link to the specific extension you're talking about.

That extension is not compatible with Firefox Quantum (FF 57+).

This one is though...

Saves your sessions which are available upon a restart of Firefox.
Bit weird?

Thx.. is there a way that this extension will open the tabs, when opened, will open them to the furthest to the left instead of the furthest to the right? If not, is there an extension that will do this?

TIA

You're welcome.

This extension will just save your sessions.
It does not have any options/features to choose on which side to open tabs.

A rather intense search of the Addons site did not find anything related to opening tabs on the left of the current one.
They all want to open tabs on the right or close tabs to the right &/or left or "other stuff."
ref; > https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefo ... =extension

Maybe someone will know of an extension or by code.

Perhaps if you searched the Addons site for "open tabs right to left?"

No Probs.

The creators/authors usually have a contact/support link on their extension page
or even a thread in the Extensions/Theme Releases forum.

All of the session management extensions are under active development. At least one of them is on Github where it's fairly easy to post a feature suggestion:

https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addo ... n-manager/ => https://github.com/sienori/Tab-Session-Manager/issues
