Description

This extension adds the ability to manage tabs and windows in QupZilla.

Prerequisites

The TabManager-extension has to be activated as described in the chapter General Configuration on the extensions homepage.

Configuration

You will have to choose between two configuration options:

(1) SideBar: Will display the TabManager in the sidebar like the history or the bookmarks.
(2) Window: Will open the TabManager in a separate window. This mode is intended to use for managing a lot of windows or tabs.

The TabManager is a powerful extension to manage tabs and/ or windows.

Example

It is quite confusing to retrieve a specific tab. In this case the TabManager-extension supports you to keep a clear head. The following images show all options of sorting tabs in the TabManager.

Now, if you found the tab you have been looking for just double-click it and the TabManager will display it.

TabManager even lets you detach/ close a tab or group of tabs. Just select them as shown and click detach/ close checked tabs.
