    It's almost as simple as can be, but I wish it opened the tabs in the background, respecting the setting I have in my Firefox options.

    This add-on works well, in Firefox on Android. When configuring the app for individual web sites, the fully qualified domain name for the site should be specified with the site's complete hostname - e.g www.google.com as instead of google.com. For any pages open when the add-on is installed, the add-in's functionality may become available then, once the page has been reloaded. Of course, it would be available for new pages and tabs too. Works well as a workaround for Google having apparently removed the "Open search results in new tab" option from Google "Search Settings."

    Yes!

    Doesn't work at all. I entered 16 specific sites from my list of bookmarks, and this add-on does not open a new tab for any of them. I am, unfortunately, on FF 57.2.
  • sɣur Aseqdac Firefox 11640498, 7 წლის წინ
    Thank you and congrats for your add-on.

    For many years I used https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/open-link-in-new-tab
    It was perfect for me.
    Sadly was not upgraded for FF+57.

    I installed and tested your add-on. In general, perfect, works ok.
    But in some pages (addons.mozilla.org and other pages), it doesn't work. I realize it is because some pages doesn't allow it. Am I right? I tested wildcards like *.*, and even that didn't work.
    In some other pages, like facebook, the "notifications" option doesn't work with this add-on, it is totally blocked. The same happens with "friend requests", "messages" and many other functions in facebook. Or am I doing something wrong?

    Thank you again!

    Hi, thank you for all your work with the Addon.

    However, even though I added a "*" for the Hostname..... I was sad to see that this did not then extend to bookmarks. I would so love to open bookmarks as well as everything else, in a new tab. I've no idea why Mozilla don't think this is important.

    Sadly though, adding "*" does not have this effect, and the page you are currently reading, still get's spoiled by the bookmark link you've just clicked on, when it would be so much better if it opened a new tab.

    Can this be done? Thanks though.

    This is a reasonable workaround for the old option available from legacy TabMixPlus, but there are some sites that I don't want this enabled, like banking websites. Is there any plan in the future to have a n exclusion list for this extension? Or is there a way to set it up to do something like "all except for x"?
  • sɣur csx, 7 წლის წინ
    This is very useful, especially with the * wildcard. :-) Maybe that should be a switchable default option.

    Update:
    I wanted to open bookmarks always in new tabs, didn't realize there's a config option for this. Setting "browser.tabs.loadBookmarksInTabs" seems to do the trick for me. (Now why isn't this a visible option in the config UI?)

    (Earlier version of this comment asked for this extension to support this. Not needed, obviously!)
  • sɣur showens, 7 წლის წინ
    Needs an option to open the new tab next to the current tab.
  • sɣur glibglob, 8 წლის წინ
    hey there, i know things are limited now but i have a feature request. i have * set so all links open in new tab. i was wondering if these could be implemented.

    1) white icon
    2) open in background
    3) open at end of tabs

    thanks

    Hi,

    I spent some time on your suggestions and for possible workarounds if available

    1. white icon - It is not difficult to have the user select a white background in the icon from settings. I have created a issue on my github repository to keep a track on this.
    Link - https://github.com/ramkumar-kr/open-in-new-tab/issues/2

    2. open in background - There are two ways for this -

    a. "Bad" Workaround - Overriding a browser configuration in about:config - You can change the browser behavior to open all links which open in a new tab in the background by setting the
    "browser.tabs.loadDivertedInBackground" config to true.
    More info on - https://stackoverflow.com/q/7386208

    b. Using the "tabs" API of webextensions - This would require an almost complete rewrite of the extension and can break a number of websites. I would like to use the tabs API but it will take a long time to iron out all the bugs and release it.

    3. open at the end of tabs - This is also possible using the tabs API and as I said in 2(b), it will take a long time for me to have this feature.

    Thanks,

    Hi, great addon, and great idea, but why not the option to open link in a new background tab? (sorry for my english, I hope you understand) Cheers
    ¿Por qué no tiene opción de abrir links en segundo plano?

    Please, change tabify.js this way:

    for(var item in items){
    var re = new RegExp( '^'+item.replace('*','.*')+'$' );
    if (re.test(hostName)){
    addTarget();
    }
    }

    This would allow us to specify domain* or *domain or even * as hostname (to allow all opening in new tab for all domains).

    A secondary field "exclude domains" would improve this further. If Allowed (*) and not Denied, thus addTarget.

    Thank you

    Hi,

    Thanks for the suggestion. It is a wonderful idea to define a regex for the hostname.

    However, there are few concerns such as the actions to be shown in the popup when a regex matches the url

    Can you send a pull request so that we can discuss more about it there?

    Installed this on firefox for Android (nightly), but it doesn't appear to work. It Lets me add a URL in the add-on settings, but doesn't change any behavior. When I add a few URLs, the space to add a new URL also disappears.

    Hi,

    I spent some time around these issues and found out the following

    1. The popup doesn't appear to work - Apparently, firefox for android does not support much of the APIs needed by this extension. (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Add-ons/WebExtensions/manifest.json/browser_action#Browser_compatibility). I have created a bug in bugzilla to support this. (Link - https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1393911)

    2. Let's me add URLs but doesn't change behaviour -
    Only the "hostname" part of the URL is expected to be entered in the settings.
    I was able to see links opened in a new tab in android for hackernews, reddit, twitter etc.,
    You can use https://www.freeformatter.com/url-parser-query-string-splitter.html to get the hostname for a given URL.

    3. When I add a few URLs, the space to add a new URL also disappears - This is a bug being worked on by mozilla and was fixed in firefox 57. Link - https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1386316

    Since there is nothing much I can do here, I will add warnings for android users about the features missing in android in the addon's description.

    Thanks

    Works fine as stated. I would suggest to implement an "ALWAYS open in new tab" option with, maybe, a list of URLs not to open in a new tab (i.e. the opposite of what the extension is doing at the moment).

    I must admit that enabling it for the most-visited URLs may actually be enough, it's too early to tell, but I have grown accustomed to this behaviour thanks to TabMixPlus - I *hate* having to use the middle mous button to open in a new tab.

    Helpful extension!

    Hi,
    Thanks a lot for trying out the extension.
    I thought about your suggestion on "never open in new tab" and felt that it would be better if there was a separate extension which does the job.

    Can you help me by providing some examples where you don't want sites to open a new tab? Surprisingly, I haven't come across any sites apart from amazon (which opens links in new tab in a product listing page)

    Thanks,
