QuickFolders (Tabbed Folders) Version History

160 versions

Be careful with old versions!

These versions are displayed for reference and testing purposes. You should always use the latest version of an add-on.

Version 4.17.4 1.1 MiB Works with Thunderbird 60.0 - 69.*

Version 4.17.4 Maintenance Version
  • Added Alt + [Up] as possible navigation shortcut to go to parent folder.
  • Extended Alt + [Left] and Alt + [Right] shortcuts to go to the next sibling folder if no QuickFolders tab is selected. If a visible QuickFolders tab is selected, then the next tab will be activated, as before - for these features the corresponding Keyboard Shortcuts choice on the QF General Options tab has to be activated.
  • Sometimes the current folder bar shows an incorrect subfolder menu (from a previously visited folder) - fixed by forcing it to rebuild every time a different folder is visited.
  • Removed unnecessary error console warning from simplified setElementStyle() function.


Version 4.17.3 Maintenance Version
  • [issue 14] Gray area shown below email list when starting Thunderbird in wide view with Current Folder Toolbar hidden.
  • [issue 15] Current Folder Bar background styling is ignored in Thunderbird 68
  • [issue 16] Avoid showing current folder toolbar at bottom of screen in column view. Ideally it should be shown as vertical bar between thread pane and preview. For now, it shows on top of the preview pane.
  • Improved label color for Renewal button
  • Completed translations for Spanish, French, Polish, Brazilian, Russian and Swedish users. If you have any suggestions for improvements please contact support or join the official translators team on Babelzilla


Version 4.17.2 Maintenance Version
  • [Issue 13] Thunderbird 68 regression: Cannot modify From and To addresses using Advanced Tab Properties.

Version 4.17.1 Maintenance Version
  • [Issue 11] Thunderbird 60 regression: in 4.17 - No results are shown in quickJump / quickMove when typing in Thunderbird 60.9; this s a regression caused by moving the search panel to a separate xul file (necessary for compatibility with Thunderbird 70, where search boxes are replaced by an new XUL element).
  • [Issue 9] Thunderbird 68 regression: when the shortcuts combinations SHIFT+S, SHIFT+M, SHIFT+J are used in the quick filter search field, they are accidentally executed and do not enter as uppercase letters in the search box as expected. This is caused by some input types have changed in Thunderbird 68 following deprecation of XUL elements.


Version 4.17 Release
  • [Bug 26703] Added option to hide mail commands popup menu. If acive, the QuickFolders commands menuy will only be shown when CTRL is pressed while clicking the tab.
  • [issue 7] Fixed: font color in striped mode ignored on colored tabs
  • [Bug 26683] Advanced tab property - Option to set dragged / moved emails to UNREAD.

Thunderbird 68 specific Fixes
  • Fixed: number fields are displayed too wide and with unnecessary paddings which may lead to legibility issues after preferences.css had to he removed.
  • [issue 8] in Thunderbird 70, the label is removed on right-clicking a tab. Also, the quickJump and quickMove functions stopped working.

    I highly recommend using the current release version Thunderbird 68.* and not a beta version on your daily mail profile as there will be many breaking changes in the next months. If you want to use beta versions, make sure to use a test profile and regularly back up your mail to avoid data loss.
  • The filter template dialog isn't shown properly in Thunderbird 68 - generally I would recommend to install the quickFilters Add-on instead, as it has more advanced functions for managing and creating mail filters.

Version 4.15.3
  • [Bug 26671] Only one row of tabs after update to QuickFolders 4.15.1 - this can also lead to trailing tabs missing on screen.

    The new backup / restore tool will also display tabs which have no valid folders. If you have problems with outdated tabs being shown, you may additionally want to execute the find orphaned tabs command.

Version 4.15.1 1.0 MiB Works with Thunderbird 60.0 - 73.0

Version 4.15.1
  • [Bug 24468] Added backup and restore functions on the QuickFolders Pro Tab. Save Configuration will store everything including all QuickFolders Tabs, general settings, layout and advanced settings.The later includes advanced settings except for the license key. Load Configuration will only load whatever option is selected.
  • [Bug 26670] Improved keyboard navigation: use Alt+[Down] for opening the QuickFolder Tab dropdown menu. This completes the shortcuts Alt+[Left] and Alt+[Right] for navigating to neighboring tabs.
  • Improved the behavior of the "Find orphaned Tabs" command. This now includes an option to reuse the answer (delete remaining faulty tabs - Yes / No) rather than clicking once for each invalid tab.
  • [Bug 26658] More ongoing changes to make compatible with latest Thundeerbird versions:
    • nsITreeBoxObject was deprecated - causing refresh of folder tree icons to fail
    • document.createElement deprecated - replaced with the new document.createXULelement
    • Improved new HTML color picker behavior when changing background color for inactive tab (live preview was broken)
    • ongoing changes to preferences in dialog system. Lots of moving parts here, so please test rigorously if you are using a "bleeding edge" version of Thunderbird
    • removed all instances of nsIPrefService.getCharPref(..)
    • known issue - in Thunderbird 69 the labels of the Tabs vanish when right-clicked. I will fix as soon as I knwo that it's a deprecation cause by XUL changes and not a regression in Thunderbird.

Version 4.15 1.0 MiB Works with Thunderbird 60.0 - 73.0

Version 4.15
  • [Bug 26658] ESR 2019 Readiness - compatibility with Thunderbird 68.

    Made QuickFolders compatible with Thunderbird 68 - part of the ongoing effort to future proof QuickFolders for 2020. For now, this also means making the minimum requirement using Thunderbird version 60.
  • Added lightweight theme support for current folder bar.

    For best result, select the "lighweight" option on the background dropdown on the Advanced tab. I also slimmed down the layout for retrieving some added vertical space. You can further tweak ergonomics of the central navigation panel by decreasing the "Left Spacer" value.
  • [Bug 26659] Advanced Tab Props - falsely always applies to subfolders.

    Setting From Identity or To To Address was always applied to all subfolders even if the option "[x] Also apply to subfolders" was not selected. From now on, this option will work.

  • Prepared code base for compatibility with Thunderbird 66 - this will be released as a separate version because it is currently impossible to release a version that is compatible with Thunderbird 60.

I am planning to release a first tryout version of QuickFolders for Thunderbird 64-66 in the beginning of May; it will likely have the same feature set as the current verision (4.14.1) - I am also working on converting my other Add-ons, quickFilters and SmartTemplate⁴.

  • Show the "already have a license" button on the registration screen when the license key is expired.

  • Support deleting multiple Categories from Category box. please only select Categories you have defined yourself - you cannot select the built in categoires (Always / Never / Uncategorized) in a multiple selection.
  • When deleting *all* user defined categories, the categories box was not hidden. I wrote a tidy up routine that resets any tab that may lead to this problem (remove Show Always category from all tabs)

    • [Bug 26514] Remove the QuickFolders Tab when deleting folder from its menu: The QuickFolders tab of a deleted folder used to be re-pointed to the folder that was moved to Trash, which could create the impression of the folder still being in place.

      <quote>
      <p> Postbox is based on Mozilla code, and as of Firefox Quantum, Mozilla has discontinued support for add-ons. As such, a decision has been made to remove add-ons functionality from Postbox at this time.</p>
      <p> Postbox's Signatures and Responses add-ons have been rolled into the core product. Cloud File Sharing and installable Dictionaries will be supported in future BETA releases. </p>
      <p>Add-ons from 3rd parties will no longer operate in Postbox, but we may opt to roll certain 3rd party add-on functionality into Postbox in the future.</p>

    • [Bug 26470] Make QuickFolders compatible with the next Postbox build - 5.52 beta 6 (modern Gecko build) - as of beta 7, Postbox is following Mozilla Quantum in dropping 3rd party Addons support altogether:
      <quote>
      Postbox is based on Mozilla code, and as of Firefox Quantum, Mozilla has discontinued support for add-ons. As such, a decision has been made to remove add-ons functionality from Postbox at this time.
      Postbox's Signatures and Responses add-ons have been rolled into the core product. Cloud File Sharing and installable Dictionaries will be supported in future BETA releases.
      <p>Add-ons from 3rd parties will no longer operate in Postbox, but we may opt to roll certain 3rd party add-on functionality into Postbox in the future.

    Version 4.7.1 706.1 KiB Works with SeaMonkey 2.34 - 2.46, Thunderbird 34.0 - 52.*

    • [Bug 26346] On drag &drop, mouserollovered tabs' submenus do not close anymore. This was caused by falsely renaming a function to onDragEnd because of impending changes in the Mozilla main code base; unfortunately the convenience wrapper nsDragAndDrop in Thunderbird's comm-central database does not yet follow the new naming conventions and checks for the existence of a function onDragExit in the drag observer.
    • [Bug 26348]
      Striped Style was permanently disabled. In the bugfix: if you choose Night Vision for either Uncolored or Colored Tabs then striped style will automatically disabled and switched off. (Because the Night Vision palette does not support it). It is also disabled if the theme doesn't support it or neither Uncolored not Colored tab have supported palettes (standard palette or pastel colors)

    • [Bug 25764] Configurable Button to Repair the Current Folder

      Make this new button visible in QuickFolders Settings > Advanced in the section Current Folder Toolbar. Making the Current Folder Toolbar always visible is highly recommended as it has some very useful commands right into center screen, such as:
      • Dragable current Mail(s) Icon
      • Recent Folder Button
      • Message Navigation (next unread, mark thread as read and jump)
      • Folder Siblings
      • Customize Icon
      • Filter Assistant
      • Mail Folder Commands Submenu
      • Repair Folder
      I might add a Search Messages Button for QuickFolders Pro Users at some stage as well.
    • Optimised screen space by adding an autocollapse function for the Categories dropdown. This makes sure that the categories menu does not take up an unnecessary amount of horizontal space by collapsing to a button and can be configured in QuickFolders Settings > Advanced, under Miscellaneus.
    • [Bug 26268]
      Increased maximum width of popup menus for reading long folder pathes.
    • [Bug 26313]
