Tab Extract

Good replacement to a previous Tab Sorting extension that was made defunct with recent chrome extension changes.. Helps 'extract' by domain.

This extension was fantastic when it worked. Unfortunately now, when I type "ex keyword" into the address bar, it opens my default search engine and searches for "ex keyword". Also, it's sad to see this isn't supported by the latest Chrome, as it now frequently gets disabled.

The extension was extremelly useful formerly but now (when Chrome unloads tabs by itself) it became unuseable and needs a fix: Extension searches tabs with { status: "complete" } but nowadays a lot of tabs have { status: "unloaded" } instead so tabs with this status should be processed too.

Great extension but it does only find tabs in the current window.

This extension is just awesome for people like myself who have a lot of open tabs both when using Chrome (Edge) at work and personal use. My only reservation is that I find another extension called The Marvelous Suspender indisposable, and Tab Ex doesn't allow me to extract tabs that have been suspended, so as an unintuitive workaround, I have to "wake" the tabs all up before performing tab extractions. I know that another comment already mentions this, but this is just to make the develop... Show more

Quite frankly all I ever wanted in life .... well in a life with tabs that is.

It probably is Chrome's fault, but when I want to extract, e.g., all wikipedia tabs, it barely extracts half of them (say 100 out of 250) and on the next take only 3, the next take another 3.... so it seems to ignore the so-called sleeping tabs, hence it loses its appeal, because it's faster to copy tabs manually, tab by tab, than to extract three to a new window and then use another extension to export the tabs. Any way to address the presumably sleeping-tabs issue?

Apologies for responding so late! This is unexpected behavior. Any patterns to it? Maybe it happens at a high number of tabs? A few things that might be relevant: - It's possible that Chrome's API is doing this when there's a high number of tabs. - Pinned tabs are skipped by design - What keyword are you using? I will look into updating this extension to the latest API. Perhaps it'll be fixed soon! *update*- looks like Chrome introduced "discarded" tabs. I'll look into including them in this extension. Thank you!

Good extension, has been very useful. Have been using it for years on Chrome. I just started using it on Edge in the last couple month. I just noticed it won't grab all the tabs with the domain I typed. I wonder if it has something to do with the fact hat Edge puts the tab to sleep?

This is the first extension I always install - whether I'm setting up a computer for me or someone else. Very powerful yet simple and lightweight, this is the functionality that should be built into chrome. Thanks for developing it!

very nice extension. I am a developer and constantly have searches for dev technologies, and great to be able to group tabs by technology
