Settings
Settings now live inside the popup itself. Click the gear icon in the bottom-right corner of the popup to open the Settings hub — a set of tiles, one per section. Click a tile to open that section in place; click back to return to the hub.
General
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Theme Mode | Light, Dark or System |
| Compact Mode | Reduces tab item height |
| Skip Delete Confirmation | Delete tabs without a prompt |
Tabs
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Color-code tabs | Give individual tabs a color. Tabs without one keep the standard look. |
| Color style | How the color appears on a tab — dot or tint |
| Quick Add in the Salesforce menu bar | Adds a + at the end of your tabs that captures the current page without opening this popup |
Profiles
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Enable Profiles | Separate tab sets for different orgs |
| Auto-Switch Profiles | Automatically switch to the appropriate profile based on the current Salesforce org’s URL |
| Quick Add adds to all profiles | A page captured with Quick Add lands in every profile, not just the active one |
Auto-Switch Profiles and Quick Add adds to all profiles only appear once Enable Profiles is turned on.
This is the short version — see the full Profiles page for how to create, switch, and match profiles to orgs.
Button
SF Tabs can put your tabs one click away on every Salesforce page, either as a floating button, a menu in Salesforce’s own header, or both.
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Enable floating button | Show a floating button on Salesforce pages for quick tab access |
| Show a menu in the Salesforce header | Adds a bookmark button to Salesforce’s own header, beside Favorites, that opens your tabs. Works alongside the floating button or on its own. |
| Edge | Which side it docks to, left or right |
| Offset from top | In pixels, so it stays put when the window resizes |
The floating button also has a layout choice — edge drawer (handle), round button, or labeled pill — and a location choice — everywhere, only in Setup, or outside Setup.
See Quick Access for more on how these show up on the page.
Org Colors
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Color the browser tab icon | Tints the Salesforce icon in your browser tab so you can tell orgs apart at a glance |
| Show a banner on the page | A colored bar across the top of every Salesforce page, in the same color as the tab icon |
| Include the org name | Shows “ACME–DEV1 · SANDBOX” rather than just “SANDBOX” — useful across several sandboxes of one org |
| Where the banner appears | Everywhere, only in Setup, or outside Setup — the same three choices the floating button offers |
Environments start at Production and Sandbox. Add the rest — Developer Edition, Trailhead Playground, scratch, demo and patch orgs — from the picklist under the table.
See Org Colors for how colors are chosen and applied.
Data
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Storage location | Sync or Local — where your tabs and settings are stored |
| Reset to Defaults | Reset all tabs and settings to their default values |
