Wow fantastic I needed an addon that would paste &amp;amp;amp; go to new tab so made it myself and was uploading it to AMO then came across this. My addon is seriously low tech 15minute whip up. But it uses localization of the browse itself so i dont need to provide my own. But it also shows the"Paste &amp;amp;amp;Go - new tab" item when you click anywhere on the tab strip, could you please add that feature to this addon, I love your idea of "paste to specific tab" and go i might find that useful too, but i definitely need the "paste and go in new tab" available in a right click anywhere in the tab strip.

Edit: wow i just downloaded this and it works exactly as i wanted!! Super cool, no need for my addon. But would be nice if this was restartless :) And man the "paste and go to new background tab" in url bar is so useful!!

Edit edit: Ah it needs to obey the shift key with respect to browse setting for focus: https://github.com/Noitidart/Paste-Go-with-New-Tab/blob/master/bootstrap.js#L28-L42 (except for the "paste and go to new bg tab" that shows in urlbar right click, that should always load in background tab, because if i wanted a new tab i would have right clicked just a couple centimeters over :P

Edit edit edit: when i click on a tab i only see "paste to this tab and go" i need the "paste to new tab and go" too please. Becuase i have so many tabs i have no whitespace in tab bar to click on :( I would love to collaborate with you on this to make it restartless and land these features. And fully localized :)

...but I wish, there were some icons (placeable in the toolbars) to click, instead fiddeling around with the context menu items.
so its kinda inconvenient to use this convenient addon :-)

great addon, i often forget to open a new tab before entering the search string , so this is a life saver.
i understand the other reviews but there are better means(addons) to directly call a text link than a shortcut.

...if only it provided configurable keyboard shortcuts as others have previously requested and/or buttons that can be placed on the toolbar.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (0.8.1-signed.1-signed).

Don't want to sound harsh, but the absence of a keyboard shortcut renders it useless.
Just count the steps you have to follow in order to load a URL.
Assuming you have already copied the link you must:
1. Move the cursor on one of the bars/tabs
2. Right click
3. Scroll down and pick it
4. Click again

Now if you would please indulge me and compare it with the -no longer supported- “Paste and Go 3” [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/paste-and-go-3/]
*Your custom keyboard shortcut* [e.g Ctrl+Shift+v] = > Paste & Go - ONE STEP!
*Your custom keyboard shortcut* [e.g Ctrl+Shift+s] = > Paste & Search - ONE STEP!

When it comes to convenience, there is NO comparison as to which is better.
Unless of course you're one of those types who, in order to save a file, would rather move the mouse to File tab and pick Save instead of merely pressing Ctrl+S.
Until someone manages to create such an add-on, I'm sticking with the *modified* version of “Paste and Go 3 1.0.5”

Zulkarnain K., your efforts and time you've spent developing this plug-in are greatly appreciated, that goes without saying.
BUT, there's always room for improvement - Can/Will you add customizable keyboard shortcuts?

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (0.7.1-signed.1-signed).

要是能添加PasteAndGo和PasteAndSearch这两个按钮就好了，省去点击右键的麻烦

Fantastic addon. Does exactly as it says, just right click the 'new tab' "+" icon, select Paste and Go, and you're there. I agree, this should be a Firefox default option. Thank you to the author for such a fine addon. :-)
