Tab groups inaccessible with 0.9.6 on FF 35.0.1
Hi,
it seems that the latest version of the add-on broke tab groups for me on Ubuntu 14.04 / FF 35.0.1. The menu item does not appear any more and when I click on the tab group button in the tool bar nothing happens, even though I have multiple tab groups.
When I remove the add-on, then a click on the tab groups button has the expected effect again. If I then install the add-on, I see the menu item - but after the next restart, the menu item has disappeared again and a click on the tab groups button again shows no effect at all.
Regards Christoph
I have the same problem, after restart their is no chance to access the tabgroup menu or the panorama button.
Tested with Firefox 35 with clean profile, I do not experience any problem.
It could be platform (OS) related, although the code has no platform specific part.
Let me know if there are any data points, dumps, whatsoever that can help narrow down the cause of this issue. I will try to provide as much information as I can.
You can
- open the browser console (ctrl + shift + j), copy the contents, paste into a text editor, find the lines that contains tabgroupsmenu, then paste those lines here
- in the meantime, downgrade to a lower version here https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/tabgroups-menu/versions/
Never mind with the browser console, I can reproduce the case with firefox in Arch linux.
Seems so. No problem on Windows. And only the first window is affected, if you open another window the addon works fine. It seems there is a bug with eager panorama initialization on linux. I suggest that you use version 0.9.2 for now.
Not just me then. Firefox 35.0.1 and Xubuntu 14.04
My tab groups (I have about 60) became inaccessible a few days ago. If I create a new Window, it works in that new window. If I cause a crash with Firefox running, the tab groups are working while it says "Restore Session?" and continues to work after I have restored all the tabs. However, if I close Firefox and restart it they stop working again.
I tried disabling all the add-ons, no difference.
I have purged my cache, bookmarks and most of my history. No difference.
Issue exists on Windows as well - I have the same symptoms on Windows 7 as well as Kubuntu 14.04. The dropdown button and menu bar item intermittently (but nearly always) don't appear on the first window created, but do in a new window. Browser console contains no lines with 'tabgroupsmenu' in. Have 0.9.6 - downgrading to 0.9.2 works around the issue - thanks.
Yesterday I replaced [email protected] in ~/.mozilla/firefox/wgabmngv.default/extensions with a backup I made in December. Today it is working again as it was replaced at 7:23 this morning, presumably through an automatic Firefox update. The most recent file in it is dated 14/1/15 8:31 and so that must be this version: https://github.com/char101/tabgroupsmenu/commit/24caeb650e700c4d35380701a591828ad394a6ff I guess the latest changes have been rolled back.
Yes, I have disabled the newer versions until I have the time (motivation) to rewrite the addon.
It looks like I have the same issue too. FF 36.0.1, TabGroupsMenu 0.9.2, ubuntu 12.04. TabGroups menu does nothing when I start FF. I need to disable it, restart FF and reenable (and it will work as long as FF running).
