Latest version
Version 1.7.1
Released Jul 29, 2026 - 260.9 KBWorks with firefox 109.0 and laterThe link-handling setting is gone, because it never did anything. Firefox already moves links leading to another site out of a pinned tab by itself.
The add-on now has exactly one job: an address for another site, typed into a pinned tab's address bar, opens in a new tab instead of taking over the pinned page.
New About page. Click the toolbar icon to open it. It explains what the add-on does, illustrated and written out, and is honest about its limitations.
New icon.
The preferences page now holds nothing but the optional debug log, for switching on logging and downloading it to attach to a bug report.
The manifest declares that the add-on collects no data, using the new key Mozilla requires. It is a formal statement of what was already true: nothing is collected, stored or sent anywhere.Source code released under All Rights Reserved

Released May 30, 2024 - 57.93 KBWorks with firefox 48.0 and later- La détection des onglets épinglés a été rendue plus fiable, garantissant que les changements de domaine dans la barre d'adresse ouvrent toujours les nouvelles URL dans des onglets distincts, tout en maintenant les onglets épinglés inchangés.
- Suppression de fonctionnalités redondantes: Nous avons retiré certaines fonctionnalités qui sont déjà incluses dans Firefox 1) empêcher la fermeture des onglets épinglés via les raccourcis clavier 2) Ouvrir les liens de domaines différents dans de nouveaux onglets si le lien est à l'intérieur d'un onglet épinglé.Source code released under All Rights Reserved
