I use this extension for work, and it saves a lot of time.

In my line of work we have a lot of different customers, thus a lot of different logins.

Is there a way to implement sorting of the container names/search function in the menu where you choose the container to use? (Not the tabs themselves, just the container names where you create new containers and such)

 

Thanks in advance! 🙂

Big +1 on this

I have basically one container per site so I need to scroll to get to a container.

To add to the idea:

* have the option of a tree like structure, similar to bookmarks

* search... Google proved that you can put search in any product/feature and 99% of the time is a great idea.

Thanks

Hi

I use Containers _a lot_ so the current O(n) time of searching for a container is getting annoying when I need to scroll though 3 pages of entries.

Proposal is simple: make Containers as navigable as book marks are. Be able to add directories in order to create hierarchies, be able to search thought the list of containers thought a search bar and be able to create contains on the fly (not need to go to the management page).

I could have sworn I submitted this idea or upvoted an existing proposal but I cannot find it.

 

Thanks

Hey y'all

I implemented a filter feature that got merged and will be in the next release (sorry I don't have a date). Here's a quick demo:

Can I +100 on this idea?

Manually managing my growing list of 50+ containers is a chore. Don't get me wrong. It is a whole lot better than having none at all. I am very thankful for it, but it sure would be nice to have the ability to search and sort these container listings.

<edit: Search is there! Woot!>

Thanks

@dannycolinI see that the search containers change made it to the release and have been using it for many months now. It really does make a big improvement.

So if it was your change that made it happen, many thanks!
Not sure how to send kudos for your contributions, but praise is deserved.

Thanks!

Hello! I see this was delivered, but I still can't sort containers in the container menu that shows when clicking the "+" new tab button (with the "Select a container for each new tab" option enabled in about:preferences#containers). Searching does not replace reordering hundreds or thousands of containers. @Jon
