Do you use "Collapse sidebar (instead of close)" option? Also please open error console (Ctrl+Shift+J) before trying to close sidebar and copy/paste here any errors and warnings related to Sidebars List.
Just happened. I’m using default options – image attached.
Log below:
09:18:39.996 TypeError: sidebarBroadcaster is null browser.js:13702
09:18:42.372 TypeError: sidebarBroadcaster is null browser.js:13702

Thanks for responding. It’s a very useful extension – it would be a shame not to use it.

Looks like "Reply to this email directly" doesn't support attachments.
I think, Sidebars List itself shouldn't cause this error (at least directly). Probably some another extension wrongly modifies sidebarcommand
attribute:
chrome://browser/content/browser.js
function toggleSidebar(commandID, forceOpen) {
var sidebarBox = document.getElementById("sidebar-box");
if (!commandID)
commandID = sidebarBox.getAttribute("sidebarcommand");
var sidebarBroadcaster = document.getElementById(commandID);
...
if (sidebarBroadcaster.getAttribute("checked") == "true") { // Error happens here
Or you use some non-standard sidebar (from some extension)...
Anyway, I implemented possible workaround, test version: sidebars_list-0.1.2pre8-fx.xpi (source)
(But it's better to understand the real reason, of course...)
Only extensions I have (on a clean FF profile) are:
Adblock Plus (no subscriptions, just a few ad blocking filters of my own for a couple of sites)
Password Maker
S3 Google Translate
I have no other sidebar extensions and no other extensions that have been installed in this profile. The only other browser is IE which I don't use.

OK, I’ve installed this so I’ll let you know how it goes – I’ll do my best to break it!
Thanks.

Also if this bug happens again (with test version), please set extensions.sidebarslist.debug = true on about:config page, open error console (Ctrl+Shift+J) and try to close sidebar again.
At the moment I’m just trying the released version of Sidebars List without the ‘S3 Google Translator’ installed. I have a funny feeling that it might be interfering in some way. Perhaps you should take a look…

OK, the release version locked up again. Note very precise but I had around 30+ tabs open, and started a download from TPB. When I returned to the sidebar it had locked up and couldn't be closed. I now have the test version installed again and no problems so far, including a test to mimic the situation above.
Yet another clean profile, with only Adblock and Password Maker installed. As before, Adblock uses NO subscriptions and just a handful of ad blocking filters.
Hi,
I have an issue where the side bar will, after a while, lock up. So I have the sidebar open and I'm opening / using a number of tabs. I return to the sidebar to find that I can not close it or collapse it, the only option is to close Firefox.
Anyone else?
Thanks
