sɣur JM, 6 vite më parëI've never posted a review before for a Firefox add-on, but this one is so elegantly implemented (and so sorely needed) that I felt compelled to do so.
This add-on is a simple solution to a vexing problem of how to force a bookmark to open in a specified container every time. Kudos to the developer!
If it's not entirely clear from the add-on description, once you've installed this add-on, you can replace any Firefox bookmark with the ext+container command syntax and that bookmark will always open in the specified container automatically. For example, if you have a bookmark to www.google.com that you want always to open in your Google container, first make sure you've created a container named Google, then right-click on your bookmark, select Properties, and change the location from https://www.google.com/ to ext+container:name=Google&url=https://www.google.com/
One note to other users: If your container's name has any spaces or other special characters in it, you have to urlencode the special character in the command (like replacing spaces with %20). For example, if you want your bookmark for www.bigbank.com to open in your My Banks container, the bookmark would be ext+container:name=My%20Banks&url=https://www.bigbank.com/

yeffeɣ-d deg 6 vite më parëThank you very much! I've never posted an extension either :) Regarding the bookmarking functionality, I plan some improvements for it (keeping the extension lightweight and the main functionality intact of course) and I will update the description accordingly.

- Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur anidatte, 3 muaj më parëI wonder why basic functionality like this aren't implemented in containers by mozilla! Great work, with additional option 'network.protocol-handler.external.ext+container' set to true in about:config which removes prompt on every link opening with this extension. Allows to create a bookmarks which opens in specific containers. Thank you!

- Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur Mo' FF, 5 muaj më parëBeautiful. Want to open a bookmark in a container tab? Just use:
ext+container:name=MyContainer&url=https[:]//mozilla[.]org
(eliminate the brackets around the colon & period] Then, search network.protocol-handler.external.ext+container in about:config and double click it to set boolean=true, and you'll eliminate the nag screen!

- Yettwasezmel 4 ɣef 5sɣur AORKA, 10 muaj më parëI'd love to say this works perfectly, but unfortunately I'm on windows and the protocol handling doesn't seem to work right. Can't blame the dev who is clearly linux based like a sane person.

It's normal to 'disapear' page icon when change path to url in bookmarks into e.g.: ext+container:name=MyContainer&url=https://mozilla.org ??
##############
Are you planning to add something along the lines of detecting a potential container?
For example, we assign a container to a domain:
*google.com* -> google container
And if, for example, we click on a url call matching the pattern in another program it will open us automatically in a specific container.
Think about this, it would be a brilliant solution! - Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur Aseqdac Firefox 18251720, 2 vite më parëNew Firefox update added a warning each time a tab is opened, someone on github seems to have found a way to make it not appear. https://github.com/honsiorovskyi/open-url-in-container/issues/121#issuecomment-1869443971
- Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur Maud Royer, 2 vite më parëNice extension. A bit annoying since 121.0 in which Firefox added a warning before opening each tab in an custom protocol. Does anyone know how to disable this ?

- Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur Giulio, 3 vite më parëIs working perfectly with the latest version in 2023 ! Had only to figure out how to save bookmarks because it's not really clear. Save it as ext+container:name=MYCONTAINERNAME&url=https://mozilla.org
- Yettwasezmel 1 ɣef 5sɣur Aseqdac Firefox 13492451, 3 vite më parëI'd be happy to change this to a 5 star if this extension worked. The extension won't activate and am using Firefox 110.01. Is there a procedure I have to follow to activate this extension after it has been enabled?
