par Utilisateur ou utilisatrice 13119159 de Firefox, il y a 7 ansAs of October 2022 No longer functions at all. Removing.
Not a bad addon but could use a lot more functionality. For starters, it needs a whitelist for sites that are okay to duplicate, which is often necessary. Also, a simple "Close tab automatically" function really isn't the best way to handle a duplicate inadvertently being opened. For example, say you forget you've already got Google open and you type a search in the address bar (which I have set to auto open in a new tab). Rather than the new tab opening with the search I just typed, it switches to the old tab, with an old search in it, which is at first pretty disconcerting. In this case it makes more sense to close the old tab, not the new one, but again, maybe I actually do want them both open. There needs to be a white list. Did I say there needs to be a white list? There needs to be a white list.
RESPONSE TO DEVELOPER'S COMMENT: If you think I gave it two stars just for missing one feature, you didn't even bother to read the whole review. Two stars stands I now I don't even want to bother seeing if it's improved. You need to learn what reviews are for.

mis en ligne : il y a 7 ansHi,
You could have made it easier and shorter to simply request a White list. :)
It has already been requested and it's planned, I just miss time.
Note: 2 stars for a missing feature seems pretty strict (even I don't care, I just share for free an add-on I've developed for me)

- Noté 5 sur 5par Korwin, il y a 4 moisWorks great. I really like the "Filters" options - without them the extension would be pretty much useless to me.
- Noté 5 sur 5par Tempdirz, il y a 7 mois
- Noté 5 sur 5par Kachajal, il y a 8 moisAbsolutely beautiful. Exactly what I wanted. Automatically closing older duplicate tabs when a new duplicate is opened should be a stock option in firefox.

- Noté 4 sur 5par BlackWinny, il y a un anExcellent.
Drawback: the add-on seems to have been abandoned 4 years ago, as seen on Github:
https://github.com/Peuj/duplicate-tabs-closer
But I find a bug:
Whatever your choice in "Priority" parameter in the Options, the add-on always keeps the oldest visited tab. This parameter seems to not work at all.
And I also have two little requests:
- First one: it would be nice not to include the tabs "New tab" in the list.
- And second one: it would be nice to disregard (ignore) a final "/".
Both requests could have their checkbox in the Option page (with On by default).
But I don't know what to think, given that the developments seem to have been abandoned 4 years ago. - Noté 5 sur 5par Adrian, il y a un an
- Noté 1 sur 5par Utilisateur ou utilisatrice 16024671 de Firefox, il y a un anWrite about my experience with this add-on? I wasted hours trying to figure out why I could have only one tab per domain. It didn't matter if the url was completely different. Utter POS because the PEUJ who designed it doesn't even know the meaning of "duplicate". IT MEANS "EXACTLY THE SAME", got that? Read again.

- Noté 4 sur 5par Reiner030, il y a 2 ansSeems to work fine BUT ONLY IN ONE WINDOW ... I uses several windows and there are "no duplicates" found by this (and other) tab deduplication extension ...
Because of some somehow gone/lossed tabs I opened a saved session so I had to get rid of duplicated tabs. - Noté 4 sur 5par Utilisateur ou utilisatrice 13564703 de Firefox, il y a 2 ansWorks well - the option to delete newer duplicate tabs goes a long way to not losing anything you're looking at or working on.
Would be cool if there could be a colour, or some kind of alert or badge on the actual dupliacte tab itself.
A one-click, auto-appearing 'close' button would be good too, instead of having to dive into the menu.
I find the 'close all' button and section a bit unclear - both the duplicate and the original tabs are listed, with a cross by each. Does the cross close the tab, or remove it from the menu? Does the 'close all' button close all the listed tabs, or just the duplicates? It's a bit nerve-wracking at first, but once you get used to how it works it's helpful in pruning down serious browsing sessions. - Noté 4 sur 5par GammaBubble, il y a 2 ansExcellent add on! Can we please get an option to exclude duplicates when a duplicate tab is manually opened?

- Noté 1 sur 5par LordFool, il y a 2 ansIt keeps closing som4 local tabs on my network, basic local IPs. Nope.
- Noté 4 sur 5par Utilisateur ou utilisatrice 17735753 de Firefox, il y a 2 ansI tried a duplicate tabs extension that was way simpler than this that I liked at first. It could close duplicate tabs automatically in the background without interruptions, but it stopped working at some point. I tried this one next and it seems to be very robust. I wasn't sure that I needed all the bells and whistles at first but they have turned out to be quite useful after all, such as the URL format filters and the whitelist.
If I could add a suggestion, it would be super helpful to be able to whitelist a new tab. Not sure if this is possible. I tried entering a pair of empty double quotes into the whitelist field "" to see if that would work since I noticed that wildcards are also supported. Kind of a hackerly solution but I took a swing at it. Still closes them though. 😛 - Noté 4 sur 5par Utilisateur ou utilisatrice 17412706 de Firefox, il y a 2 ansRecently the about:blank whitelist fails.
