About Sidebery

Sidebery is a Firefox extension that manages tabs and bookmarks in a sidebar. It provides configurable sidebar panels, including vertical tab panels with a tree or flat layout, bookmark panels, and a history panel. Users can search within panels, customize the context menu and styles, and save snapshots of windows, panels, or tabs.

Sidebery may conflict with other extensions that control where new tabs open or that move or sort tabs, such as Tree Style Tabs. The developers recommend disabling such extensions to avoid unexpected behavior or broken tab states. Hiding Firefox's native tabs can be done with built-in vertical tab settings or with a userChrome.css file, and the source notes that a Firefox bug may cause one of these settings to be ignored after a browser restart or when a new window opens.

Sidebery FAQ

Can Sidebery hide Firefox's native tabs?
The source describes two options: enabling Firefox's native vertical tabs and resizing the native sidebar to its minimum, or using a userChrome.css file to hide the horizontal tab bar. A Firefox bug may cause the setting to be ignored on the next browser start or when a new window opens.
Which other extensions can conflict with Sidebery?
The source names Tree Style Tabs as an example of an extension that handles the position of new tabs. It also mentions extensions that move or sort tabs. The developers recommend disabling these in the Add-ons Manager to avoid unexpected behavior.
What is the nightly version?
The nightly release is a signed build created through GitHub Actions. It supports auto-updates and is intended for testing new features. Previous nightly releases are listed in the Assets section of the latest release notes.
