"Simple Tab Sorter" is a free and open-source Google Chrome extension for people who want quick and easy user-customizable tab sorting and grouping.
In addition to standard URL or title-based sorting, its "killer features" are:
- Respects Google Chrome's Tab Groups.
- User configurable sort behavior for handling tabs suspended by extensions forked from The Great Suspender.
- Simple manual override of tab group sort order.
My intention is to keep this extension "Simple" and light weight. I've received feature requests that conflict with these goals and have created Super Tab Sorter with the intention of it being a feature rich version of Simple Tab Sorter.
You should give Super Tab Sorter a try if you want more functionality than Simple Tab Sorter and submit feature requests in Super Tab Sorter's issue tracker if it's lacking functionality you desire. Please check the User Guide on the Options page before doing that. Also, keep in mind that these extensions sorts tabs, they don't "manage" them. Tab management is not what I do, so look for another extension if you need that.
You can submit bugs if you encounter issues with this extension. Please refer to the User Guide, which can be found in this extension's Options page, before submitting bugs.
I can be contacted via the contact form at peterwhite.net for other inquiries.
Simple Tab Sorter is available via the official Chrome Web Store.
Please note that the webstore version may lag behind the latest version found here. My intention is to limit experimentation to GitHub in an attempt to avoid being buried in support requests from the wider public audience using the Chrome Web Store.
