Reviews for Tab Reloader (page auto refresh)
Tab Reloader (page auto refresh) by James Fray
Review by R.S.
Rated 3 out of 5
by R.S., 6 years agoLove the concept, and well designed. However, the auto start when opening Firefox doesn't work right. I turned it on but when I close out and reopen it doesn't auto turn back on. I even added the codes to auto reload some sites, but only the first site will turn on automatically. I open 6 pages every day to monitor. This does work, but I have to turn it on for 5 out of the 6 pages daily. Not bad, but not working right. It might be that I'm running the ESR version of FF (version 68.1.0esr 64-bit). It shouldn't make a difference, but maybe. I'd give it 5 stars if it would remember to auto turn on for all the pages.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Yarik, 7 days agoit looks good, but for some reason I can't select less then 10s, I want to select 1s for building web-sites, 10s works but it would be nice if I could set it to be 1s

- Rated 2 out of 5by USER-EXPERIENCEONLY, 22 days ago5-9-2025-doesn't work. Does not keep tabs connected. Worthless no matter what the settings.
- Rated 3 out of 5by Espada, 24 days agoIn general, it is a really good extension. The problem is, I use this headlessly to monitor a website, and this has a fairly major memory leak causing Firefox to eventually crash, it also causes Firefox to run stupidly slowly, needing a stop and restart to fix. This may be okay for some, but when I don't actively monitor this box, it is for me.
- Rated 3 out of 5by Fiy, a month agodocumentation is definitely not adapted to non-coders, there is little GUI and you're left to write json yourself.
it seems you need to write a json script just to keep reloading rules between sessions.
generally hard to know how you're supposed to achieve something if you can't code. - Rated 5 out of 5by FESSUL ProcInst, 2 months ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by gothicserpent, 3 months agoWorks really well to refresh my merrill edge page so i can actively monitor my portfolio real-time. Thanks!
- Rated 4 out of 5by Dgrim, 3 months agoWanted this for one reason only. To stop Facebook from reloading my timeline every fucking time I switch between tabs. But It does not prevent this.
- Rated 3 out of 5by Netrom, 3 months agoI really like the concept and base functionality, however I have one issue. When creating a custom job by shift-clicking (match full URL) it doesn't work - it continues to reload even when the URL changes. Secondly, a suggestion: would really like the ability to not only play a sound, but also (and/or) display a notification when a change occurs. Also it would be great to monitor for selected keywords and only notify select changes, rather than *any* change. Thanks for your work.
Edit: I used "run policy code" to circumvent the match URL issue. For anyone interested the code I used: "document.currentScript.dataset.continue = window.location.toString().includes("URL");"
I assume it may be possible to show notifications by utilizing the "run JS code" option, but I don't know JS. If anyone do, please share :) - Rated 5 out of 5by Bobb Li, 4 months ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Byron Taaka, 4 months agoWorks as Expected. consider removing/reducing the 10seconds minimum allowed time for refreshing, to make the extension useful for those giving 1star rating.
