    Really usefull, but would be great to have a pause button, so it doesn't reload when im working on that tab. or if its possible detect work before reload. but a pause button would be great.

    Thanks for the feedback, we are aware of this use case & working on this feature. While we fix it, we recommend (for this scenario) open one extra tab with same hostname. Since the extension will always refresh the first tab you are free to work on other tabs uninterrupted on any of the other tabs.

    Works exactly as described, no issues with multiple URLs.

Actually that is the intended behavior and the development of the extension is done to reload only the first tab. \n\nReason for this approach : The aim of the extension is to keep the session active. In case there are multiple tabs open on same domain, then only the first tab gets reloaded. This way the session stay active for all the opened tabs. Reloading all tabs was redundant in keeping the session active.\n\nMoreover, reloading all the tabs can cause issues as in case the user is working on one of the tab (say commenting or posting) and if the extension reloads it, then his whole work will be gone as the tab will get refreshed.\n\nWould it be possible for you to share your use case (or issue) as to why you want to reload all the tabs? We can surely update the code if needed.",[1736385178,877782068],[1736385178,856725418],null,null,null,null,"en"],null,null,"1.3.0",null,"en","nfhogljakgcgjknnfglaahlloliaepgo"]],5], sideChannel: {}});
