by malau, 2 years agoIt literally has no GUI ! You have to code stuff into a JSON file and then load that ! It's insane that Mozilla allow this kind of stuff in their repository.

- Rated 3 out of 5by Ondrej, 3 months agoI wanted a simple addon that lets me color-code tabs so i can easily distinguish between them. E.g. I have 5 tabs opened with 5 different issues in Azure Devops and want one i'm working on to be red and onother to be blue so when I switch beween applications and many other tabs I will always easily wind that one important tab. I don't want the whole browser tab bar to change color when i select the tab, I just want the small tab to be colored, without having to select it. This addon works but is completly useless for me.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Juan Rozo, 8 months agoIt would be amazing if the app had the option to not only change the colour based on domain alone but also include specific url paths.
- Rated 5 out of 5by mad, a year agoIgnore the "no GUI" comment, don't know what happened there.
To add a new domain, simply navigate to a page on that domain, click on the icon in the toolbar (or add-on menu) and a simple sidebar opens to select a desired color for the domain.
There's also a Settings button that leads to the Options view in add-ons manager where you can delete (but sadly not change) saved colors.
I'm giving it 5 stars, because it is simple to configure, I have had no problems despite the last update being 2 years ago, and it does what I need it to do.
One problem is tho that when you have multiple windows open, and one of them has a colored domain open, it will color everything. If the windows both have a (different) colored domain open, then it follows the focus.
Although the name says Tabs, the description clearly states that it will set the browser window a custom color, so that was expected - Rated 5 out of 5by Ryan Thaut, 3 years ago
- Rated 4 out of 5by Leland, 3 years agoWhile not as easy as the old XUL Colorfultabs is is better than the web extension of Colorfultabs. That said I wish it could color each tab without the need to select the tab. That would be worth 5 stars and probably more. Good job thus far. However today I found a bug. If I have already saved a color for a domain I can't change it and resave it. I have to delete the color for the domain first and then save it. Definitely not Intuitive.

UPDATE 2.Sept.2020 ERROR: Cannot save the Color with FF 80.01 on Windows 7 = Push the ''save'' Button jump it back to White. Works flawlessly on FF 68.12 ESR. - Rated 1 out of 5by rakeem84, 6 years ago
