Too many tabs? Click the "Stash all open tabs" button in the Firefox toolbar.
All of your open tabs will be stashed into the sidebar, leaving you with an empty browser window, ready for your next task.
To rename a group of stashed tabs, click the group's title.
You can re-open a single tab within a group just by clicking the title. Click the yellow button to re-open the tab and remove it from the group, or click the red button to delete it entirely without re-opening it.
You can open a whole group of tabs at once. The green button opens the group, but keeps it around for later. The yellow button opens the group, and then deletes it from the sidebar. Stashed tabs which are already open will appear in blue.
If you'd prefer to use the entire browser window to view your stashed tabs, right-click on the Tab Stash icon in the toolbar and choose "Show Stashed Tabs in a Tab".
**NEW IN VERSION 2.0**: Click on the "Search ..." label at the top of either the tab or sidebar views to search your stash.
When saving tabs to your stash, you can choose whether to automatically open the sidebar, the tab, or nothing at all. **NEW IN VERSION 2.2**: Tab Stash provides a variety of options for controlling how stashed tabs are managed.
About this extension
Tab Stash is a no-fuss way to save, restore and organize batches of tabs as bookmarks. With one click on the Tab Stash icon, you can sweep your browser window clear of tabs, and save them all into the "Tab Stash" sidebar or tab, organized conveniently into groups. Then, when it's time to go back to that research project, just pop open your stash and restore the whole group, or restore only that one tab you were interested in.

Because Tab Stash stores your tabs as bookmarks, they will even sync to your other computers or mobile devices (using Firefox Sync, if configured). You don't need to keep track of yet another account, and no other cloud service can see your tabs.

Features
  • Stash all your open tabs in one click (in browser toolbar)
  • Stash individual tabs in one click (in address bar)
  • Show all stashed tabs in an unobtrusive Firefox sidebar
  • Show all stashed tabs in a full-browser tab view (NEW in v2.0)
  • Search your stash by typing in the search box at the top of the sidebar/tab (NEW in v2.0)
  • Restore and delete entire groups of tabs, or individual tabs within a group
  • Drag and drop stashed tabs and groups to re-organize them
  • Rename tab groups, or keep the automatically-generated names
  • Intelligent migration of duplicate tabs to the newest groups (for unnamed groups; tabs in named groups are not disturbed)

Release notes for 2.4
2.4
  • Added support for stashing tabs which are in Reader View. Due to Firefox security restrictions, there are some caveats: [#24]
    • The "Stash this tab" icon will not appear in the address bar for Reader View pages. You can instead use the right-click menu to stash individual Reader View tabs.
    • Tab Stash cannot restore tabs directly to Reader View, so if a tab is no longer available (e.g. it was closed and removed from Firefox's cache), we will restore it to the normal website view.
  • Added a record of which groups are visible and which are collapsed. If you collapse a group, we will now remember that, and we won't show you its contents again unless you ask (even if you restart your browser). [#2]
  • Improved your privacy by replacing the Google icon service with a local cache of website icons. Note that some of your website icons will go missing until you visit the site and the cache can be populated—this is normal. [#3]
  • Fixed an issue causing Tab Stash to mistakenly close a tab that was just opened if multiple tabs are restored in quick succession. [#25]
  • Fixed an issue in which Tab Stash mistakenly allows stashing tabs with local files (file:///... URLs). Tab Stash cannot restore these tabs due to Firefox security restrictions, so we now treat them as system tabs which aren't stashable. [#27]
  • Fixed an issue where some tabs would be restored to the wrong window if you quickly switch windows while a restore is happening. We will now ensure all tabs appear in the correct window even if it's no longer active. [#28]
