2023-12-19 BV It refreshes automatically when the tab is Actively in view. But does nothing once you move to the next tab!!

2023-03-10 zooleen just well doing it's job. Thank You Alex!
2023-03-09 Firefox user 13936106 the UI is amateurish and there is no explanation for the weird radio buttons that are actually checkboxes, which seem to break the whole thing by clicking them, but if you don't click around, this thing just works, and allows setting arbiitrary refresh interval, unlike "Tab Reloader (page auto refresh) by James Fray"
2023-02-20 TS313 Does not currently support domain-based or wildcard-based refresh. This means that if you use a web application that changes the end of the URL (Many do) between logins or while navigating, this plug-in won't work. Like the simple UI. Add domain support and this will be great.
