- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12362519, 8 years agorequest: ability to import Session Manager's data, please ;)
bug: i have turned off "save session when window close", but after restart, there is still a "auto saved - windows was closed" session.
1.3.2, firefox 56. - Rated 4 out of 5by I_Tichy, 8 years agoWorks really well, but adding an option to automatically restore a session when booting up firefox would be great. I like to keep outlook and slack as pinned tabs that start up with firefox, but get rid of every other tab when I close firefox.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12880207, 8 years agoAs a very happy long-term Session Manager user, I salute your efforts here! Simple and effective. This should help with our Session Manager withdrawal symptoms.
A few thoughts for further refinement:
1) Logo barely visible on gray ribbon. A multi-color icon would help visibility for diverse color needs. Look too at Firefox's closed window/tab icon; white but outlined in black, thus visible on any background really
2) A third save scheme (daily) would be useful, perhaps at first use each day, i.e. 12:01am or whenever Firefox is next open
3) The list of saved sessions might be easier to digest as single line entries; you might need to abbreviate some data, such as save type (Regular (or Interval), Daily, Closed, and User)
Thanks for launching this! - Rated 4 out of 5by LCH, 8 years agoThis extension is really nice! Thanks for making it happen! I'm on FF 57 beta right now and session management is pretty messed up. Without this extension I will lose my tabs every time I restart FF.
I found one problem: this extension would save and reopen private windows as well, which defeats the purpose of a private window. I hope there's a way to filter them out of the save, or at least out of the autosave.
A feature request: Is it possible to add a "remove all" button? Remove them one by one can be a pain at times. - Rated 5 out of 5by TheGreenSky, 8 years agoA minimal session manager which does exactly what it advertises. A lifesaver when the Firefox built-in session restore forgets a window or three.
The two (Edit: now only one!) small downsides in my opinion are a) the mentioned missing autosave on exit, or autosaving every 30s but only keeping the newest one, and b) that upon session restore it reloads all tabs - unlike the built-in session restore which loads tabs as inactive or unloaded.Developer response
posted 8 years agoa) I supported saving when exit in ver1.3.1!
b) it probably is not yet supported by webextensions API... - Rated 5 out of 5by msibley, 8 years agoI wish I had thought of using something like this years ago. Works great on the latest Beta of FF
- Rated 4 out of 5by D.Millings, 8 years agoWorks wonderfully in automatic mode with a configurable interval to suit your needs. Supports container state as of ver1.3.2.
Tiniest thing keeping me from 5-staring: Open and Remove are too close together & Remove has no confirmation.
Other than that little thing, I'm as happy as I can be.
