New Tab Here Firefox

New Tab Here

By: pollti
Lets you open a new tab at any position. Using different configurable ways (keyboard shortcut, toolbar button, context menus of tabs, …) you can open tabs anywhere you like.

Features & Capabilities

Always having many open tabs? I won't blame you – but I may have a useful feature for you :) Ever wanted to open a new tab in the middle? New Tab Here lets you open tabs wherever you want.

Current features:

  • Open new tabs at the position of the currently selected tab ** in page's context menu ** from toolbar button (in tab bar by default configuration) ** with a self-chosen keyboard shortcut, default: Ctrl+Y ** from Firefox' Tools menu
  • Open a new tab at any position by right-clicking on a tab

All of these can separately be disabled in the add-on settings. You can also choose whether to open tabs to the left or right of the currently selected (or clicked respectively) tab for each separately.

schau an -perfekt aber: about:config -> browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent -> true reicht für mich auch. einfach nenn neuen Tab neben dem aktuellen öffnen das Symbol in der Taskleiste ist e.t.w.a.s sonderbar. könnte z.B. ein kursives Pluszeichen sein, dann kann man es simpler unterscheiden wenn man wirklich beide nutzt, und wenn nicht auch, sollte doch einfach untergehen in dem ganzen. Tab öffnen macht man ja ständig. Man gewöhnt sich an die Position, da sollte und braucht die designgebung nicht zu extravagant ausfallen; bzw. 'no need to' Zudem sehe ich in ihm ganz klar ein 'Drucker / Druck-Symbol'

Is New Tab Here Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

New Tab Here requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details
