* addition of duplicate tab option
Why can't Firefox and Chrome add this functionality?
How it should work: In IE11 it's Ctrl+K and it opens a new tab (a deep-copy of the current one, incl history so one click on the back button in the new cloned tab.
- dc_gregory 9y agoChrome has had this functionality for a very long time. Right click on a tab => duplicate.
- thisacctforreal 9y agoClicking in the URL bar (or Ctrl-L) then pressing Ctrl+Enter also works. Ctrl-Clicking the back and forward buttons also opens items in new tabs. s/Ctrl/Command/g for macOS. A lot of Developers are great at applying modifier key behaviours consistently with the button and key combinations you can think of, especially with Shift and Ctrl/Command :)
- fnordsensei 9y agoBrowsing this on FF58, and at least here I do have a duplicate tab option. It even duplicated my "add comment" tab with the text in the textbox retained.
- Santosh83 9y agoDuplicate tab option is present here in Firefox 57. It's in the right click context menu on any tab.
- frik 9y agoIs it too much to ask for a simple shortcut, like Ctrl+K Ctrl+T ... new Tab Ctrl+K ... dublicate Tab Ctrl+W ... close Tab I won't start clicking around on the tabs. Please add the missing shortcut (Ctrl+K)
- zbraniecki 9y agocan you file a bug in bugzilla.mozilla.org? It should be easy to do! source: I added the duplicate tab context menu option in Fx57
- minitech 9y agoCtrl+K is already search in both Firefox and Chrome.
- foepys 9y agoAs others already mentioned, Firefox has this exact functionality available in the context menu (4th from the top) but also when you middle-click on the reload button.
- minitech 9y agoIn addition to the middle-click refresh and context menu entry that others have mentioned: you can hold down Ctrl and drag the new duplicate tab anywhere.
