Extension summary

"Super Tab Sorter" is a free and open-source Google Chrome extension for people who want user-customizable tab sorting and grouping. This is a more feature-rich version of Simple Tab Sorter, designed to contain feature requests that might conflict with Simple Tab Sorter's design goals of remaining "Simple" and lightweight.

In addition to standard URL or title-based sorting, its "killer features" are:

  1. Respects Google Chrome's Tab Groups.
  2. "Sort By URL" sorts by domain, sub-sorts by host name.
  3. "Sort By Custom" is like "Sort By URL", with the ability to simply override the order of tabs manually - demonstrated in https://github.com/pwhite2/super-tab-sorter/blob/master/STS_Custom_Sort_Demo.mp4
  4. Optional dedupe while sorting.
  5. User configurable sort behavior for handling tabs suspended by extensions derived from The Great Suspender (please review the User Guide under Options for configuration instructions).

If you encounter any issues, or have ideas for improvements, submissions at https://github.com/pwhite2/super-tab-sorter/issues and pull requests are greatly appreciated.

Thanks! Peter

Neat tool! The `Sort by URL` options work as expected. Only taking off a star because of a buggy custom option. Context: The default tab ordering is 'Right to Left'. To reverse this ordering, you need to switch from `Sort by URL` to `Custom` and then switch the dropdown option to to `Left to Right`. For my workflow and the types of sites I tend to visit, the `Left to Right` would be strongly preferred. Will update rating once fixed. May also review the code and submit a PR if time allows it. In the meantime, all I can say at first glance is that the custom sorting seems to perform a local sort instead of the default global (per window) sort you get in `Sort by URL`. Seems like this is leading to inconsistencies whenever I try to sort with custom sort (even when I leave all the other sorting options unchanged).
