| 2024-01-25 | Orwell1984 | | Really nice extension! It's normal to 'disapear' page icon when change path to url in bookmarks into e.g.: ext+container:name=MyContainer&url=https://mozilla.org ?? ############## Are you planning to add something along the lines of detecting a potential container? For example, we assign a container to a domain: *google.com* -> google container And if, for example, we click on a url call matching the pattern in another program it will open us automatically in a specific container. Think about this, it would be a brilliant solution! |
| 2024-01-22 | Firefox user 18251720 | | New Firefox update added a warning each time a tab is opened, someone on github seems to have found a way to make it not appear. https://github.com/honsiorovskyi/open-url-in-container/issues/121#issuecomment-1869443971 |
| 2024-01-17 | Maud Royer | | Nice extension. A bit annoying since 121.0 in which Firefox added a warning before opening each tab in an custom protocol. Does anyone know how to disable this ? |
