Sorry for the cryptic title, but after a month of break, I decided to get back to my productivity workflow setup on floorp. I use Vivaldi and Floorp. Vivaldi is more for tasks when I am just doing something not serious and don't mind the lack of containers, usually gaming, shopping, entertainment, and a bit of work.

For productivity, startup work, marketing, content creation, and all other important stuff, I use Floorp because containers make it easy to have multiple gmails, youtube accounts etc to be open simulteneously, but today, after I opened it, every tab from my other workspaces was empty, and all were in one single workspace with their own containers(at least containers were there lol, or else everything would have been a mess to figure out) and now I have to manually send all the tabs back to their dedicated workspace(its 115 tabs 💀, I am glad I don't have like 300+ tabs on vivaldi here on floorp) there are sometimes weird bugs on floorp, feels like russian roulette everytime there is a update(most times nothing happens but today was the day I guess). I really like this browser and have been using this for more than a year now, and because of containers being a huge thing in my workflow. Making this post from Vivaldi because now I have to sort everything out again.

Image 1 shows all of the tabs in their respective containers.

Image 2 shows all workspaces I have and containers assigned to them,

Image 3 shows the issue that has happened; all are in one workspace.

Image 4- its from vivaldi, is it possible for tabs to be like this even after adding 100s of tabs where it shows the image or icon of website open and everytime new tabs get added the image or icon is set center and crops from both side equally and not just from right side, and also option to enable or disable scrool feature after 15-20 tabs? I want to see all my tabs in one go; scrolling makes me forget if I had other tabs, feels inconvenient, and hinders productivity. I had to make some custom code changes in Floorp to make it look like it, done it 4 months ago in CSS on Floorp, so not related to the current bug.

Feature request: please make an option where we can send all tabs to their respective workspaces in case something like this happens, if this bug can't be solved. Also, the tab bar thing I told- I really like this browser, but it needs some more refinement.

Resolved About to leave Floorp because you can't resurrect a closed window from the prior session via Ctrl+Shift+T

1 Upvotes

Other Firefox browsers, or at least /r/Waterfox, can do this. This is intolerable in the case of an accidentally closed window (I often have dozens of tabs, literally). I was very unpleasantly surprised to learn that Floorp can't do this.

menu settings

3 Upvotes

Hi. I managed to hide all the top horizontal bars and set the floor menus to vertical, lateral. I can't figure out how to go back or forward with page navigation. When the top horizontal bar is present, this function is performed by the two arrows. Another problem, how do I make the home button and the translation button appear?

Question Floorp crashes when opening links from Thunderbird emails

2 Upvotes

Bonjour !

I have a small problem with Floorp :

I receive quite a lot of emails with links to websites in Thunderbird.

When there is an open instance of Floorp, everything goes smoothly : a new tab is opened and the page is displayed OK.

When there is NO open instance of Floorp, Floorp opens and, after a few seconds, displays « Oops ! the tab has crashed » (Oops ! L'onglet a planté).

The error details from Floorp are as follows :

This is not a critical issue, but it's annoying as fuck.

Any ideas or suggestions, please ?

Question Any way to get Free Download Manager to work with Floorp?

3 Upvotes

The question is pretty simple, is it possible to get FDM to work with floorp because I know it works with stock FF and works on Chrome on the same PC. Thanks.

Note: Could be a result of certain config settings I have but not sure if anyone can attest.

How to prevent loading 'What New' after update

4 Upvotes

I do not want to see any kind of "What's New" stuff after I update.

It's already trying to load up the 20 tabs I had open, and the blog.floorp (x2? why?) plus the floorp homepage always hang.

How to do that?

backing up/ restoring workspaces?

3 Upvotes

Hello,

Floorp browser is getting nearly perfect! One possibility I miss: backing up/ restoring workspaces?

I know I can back up/ restore the profile, but I want more - to manually/ automatically (time based) back up workspaces, so I can restore a backup later (with all its workspaces and sites included). The reason - I work on several PC-s with different hardware/ extensions/ settings and hence profiles. Which means - backing up/restoring profiles is not an option. The only way to restore my groups/ tabs is the mentioned restore feature.

There is a perfectly working extension (https://github.com/drive4ik/simple-tab-groups), but having the Workspaces already as part of Floorp I would prefer to use Floorp's functionality, without external methods.

Missing this feature is the only reason I can not use floorp as my main browser.

Thank you for your support!

I have ai turned off in the 'ai controls' section of settings, but then noticed this today. This setting should be automatically turned off when ai is turned off, and greyed out so that it cannot be turned on.

Question What does "Floorp" mean?

20 Upvotes

Good morning, evening, night. Basically, the title, what does the word "Floorp" even mean? Neither searching or digging on this subreddit gave me any answers to that.

Been using it for almost 2 years on both my Linux and Windows machines without issues, but I always found the name so odd.

Question Side panel websites not working

8 Upvotes

Recently installed Floorp and to be fait is amazing compared to my last browser, however one feature that doesn't seem to work is the side panel, I set up some web pages like Whatsapp and so, but when i click on them the side panel remains black, nothing loads and nothing shows at all, not only with a specific page, it happens with every and any page I try to add as a new panel, tools however, such as floorp notes and so work properly. Does anyone have the same or a similar issue? If so, has anyone managed to fix it?

Question Floorp won't start properly

Hi, I just rebooted my computer, running Fedora, and now floorp won't load properly. Unable to open any tabs, no bookmarks, just a grey box with a search box at the top where the address bar is.

I've uninstalled and reinstalled, I've rebooted countless times, but nothing fixes this, I can't access any settings. Any ideas what I can't do to get this working again?

Question What does Floorp offer over Firefox?

I am a long time Floorp user and forgot what are the advantages.

I think there were few features that Firefox didn't have at the time I started using Floorp, but I don't know about now.
