Tree Tabs

Pesala

@TheAMan006 I don't call them power-users — I call them tab hoarders. Real power-users don't need a plethora of special features to handle 1,000s of tabs. I manage fine with two windows and two tabs in each, and one tab in another workspace just to test out the feature. When I need to, I open a saved session with three more tabs in it. At most I would open ten tabs. In my not so humble opinion:

Twenty is plenty
Thirty is dirty
Forty is naughty

There are various ways that you can Help Vivaldi to Grow, but donating does not give you any special privileges to get your pet feature implemented any sooner.

Vivaldi’s Business Model was made to free the developers from the constraints imposed by investors.

Sounds a little socialistic; just sayin; nevermind.

@TheAMan006 You use socialist like it is a dirty word, but a huge part of what made the Old Opera great, and what makes Vivaldi great, is the Community support. Volunteers contribute CSS mods, themes, command chains, workarounds, and technical support far quicker than any commercial support system.

If I have an issue with my electric bill, it may take a month to get it sorted out, even though I am paying £9 a month standing charge to cover those costs of running a business.

I managed to resolve your issue within three hours. It would have been less, but I was not online when you first posted.

@Pesala That's true.

Sorry to bother, I stumbled upon this extension and want to use it.
But when I successfully load it and click on the icon to the right of url bar, nothing happens.
I tried multiple versions of vivaldi, from the latest to years-ago ones, still the same effect.
Guys, what could be the problem ?

Hi, the thread is from 2017, wich extension is this?
This one:
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/tree-style-tab/oicakdoenlelpjnkoljnaakdofplkgnd?hl=en-GB

Extensions influence the UI are often not working in Vivaldi, it have a different UI than all other Chromium browser.

Cheers, mib
EDIT: The one I linked is working but I don´t test this further.

I'm not sure why people are saying this doesn't work.
I am still running this extension unpacked and modified as described in my prior post on Vivaldi 6.1.3035.75 (Stable channel) (64-bit) .
My only concern at present is the fact that Manifest v2 is going to be deprecated soon.
Is there a way to update the Manifest to v3?

And with 6.1.3035.111?

Yes, sorry, had a crash that caused me to have to reload.
Here is a screenshot with the current version.
Vivaldi 6.1.3035.111 (Stable channel) (64-bit)
I would provide a link to the unpacked version that I am using but I am not sure if that is allowed.
Note: I have blocked my state abbreviation on the STATE + local group.

This is what has me worried that the extension will break beyond the ability to use:

I have a few other modified extensions facing that same fate, but here you can see TT in the extensions page.

You need to ask author of "Tree Tabs Mod" extension if that can be done.

kelendral

I don't know if the author of Tree Tabs is even doing updates anymore.
The "Mod" or "Hacked" part of the name on some of those extensions just my local indication that I made changes based on forum posts or other to keep things working or that I changed functionality in some way for my own reasons.

@kelendral You run the extension unpacked.
Try to edit the manifest.json and change manifest_json: 3,
and reload extension.

I do not have the extension, perhaps if bad luck, you have to change more in code.
I have no time and fun to debug a extension which is not my own.

@ybjrepnfr
Agreed, Sideberry is great on FF. If they ever do a Chromium supporting version it would be great.
TT has been & is the best on Chromium based (especially good here on Vivaldi), IMO.

I try to keep both major browser backends with at least one well running tree style tab supporting extension.

Is seems inactive on its GL account too... https://gitlab.com/kroppy

It is too bad the license has this:

NoDerivatives — If you remix, transform, or build upon the material, you may not distribute the modified material.

Don't think a pull request would be accepted given the inactivity. I am hesitant to put in the work to bring it to MV3 if it won't go through.

It also might be a bit complicated to bring up to date. I remember that registering listeners in background service workers need to be on the main level, but they might be fine where they are currently. Hard to tell without trying it.
