Multi-column view for WorkFlowy
Image from store
Description from store
WorkFlowy MultiFlow adds a multi-column view to WorkFlowy, which enables you to maintain an overview of, or relationship between, several WorkFlowy documents at once.
It can also make moving data within large lists easier, as you can open a new column and cut and paste between columns, rather than scrolling up and down or collapsing and uncollapsing bullets (note that MultiFlow does not – and cannot – support drag and drop between frames).
Columns are opened by Cmd/Ctrl+Clicking on:
- Bullets
- Internal WorkFlowy links
- Breadcrumb items
- Left navigation items
You can open as many columns as you need, change layouts, save and load sessions.
See the home page for more info.

- (2025-03-16) Gaurav Jain: Love it, this extension took my Workflowy setup to next level, now instead of opening multiple tabs it can focus on tab and in addition i can even save sessions i would like to switch based on the context. Thank you, very helpful!
- (2025-02-18) John Baker: Amazing -- I can't imagine using WorkFlowy without it anymore. I tried imitating this functionality with Vivaldi's split panes before finding this app, but it just can't compare to the smoothness of this app -- ctrl+click to open a node in a new pane is a gamechanger.
- (2024-09-01) John Bogs: Love it. with the new workflowy multiflow its perfect! Especially f you have a hint of ADD
- (2024-08-06) Mat Cotton Jr: Glad i found this! very helpful!
- (2024-05-04) Suraj Sharma: This is exactly what I needed. Works like a charm. My use case was to navigate through long lists and make additions to it. Now opening such a long list side by side, and reviewing, editing, save hell lot of my time. Thanks Developer for creating this and also in an elegant simple way which just works.
- (2024-03-11) Sam “Anselme” Levan: I wish Workflowy made support for multiple pane a native feature but this makes my workflow much better. Thank you to the developer for building this! 🙏
- (2024-02-06) Vittorio: Great extension! It needs a desktop monitor to be useful for three columns or more.
- (2023-12-05) GR Nobel (Nobel): 🛑Not working Using it on microsoft edge. Don't know why ctrl + click opening on completely new tab. can you give a option to change the shortcut?
- (2023-10-29) Erwin Susara: Been using Workflowy since 2012 and this is the best extension ever! Will not be happy if this goes away.

- (2023-10-11) David Goggin: Extremely helpful - especially the ability to Ctrl-Click left pane to open corresponding bullet in the right pane - way useful!

- (2023-05-07) G.M.R: Doesn't work on mac with chrome. I cmd+click and it opens on a new window. Amazing idea (which is why I gave it 2 stars), but needs an update.

- (2023-03-03) Cameron Peterson: I rated 5 stars because I love the idea, except I can't get it to work on chrome for PC. Am I missing something? The video says command click, which I tried ctrl+ click on PC from a node it opens in a new window, and if I ctrl+click on a header nothing happens. Would love to use this. I wish wish wish that Workflowy would just implement this on their own.

- (2022-10-17) Jorge Aguilar Reynaga: Great extension! Calling the Workflowy team from a paying customer: Makes sense to implement this natively; it is a superb but simple improvement, it seems.

- (2022-10-15) Peter: Like it so much! I am using Chrome, the one problem I encountered is the browser can only add one column, it won't add more. when you click the link, it simply replaces the second column.

- (2022-07-20) Jacek Ostrowski: Excellent companion to WF. Love it. Future improvement request - I wish it would work in tandem with chrome extensions that inject cusstom CSS or JS ( eg "User CSS" or "Shortkeys" )

- (2022-07-01) Michael Hayes: Really handy, definitely helped me be more productive in Workflowy, but a little clunky to get started. I've posted some feedback in the Reddit thread, hopefully it will be even better soon :)

- (2022-02-24) B V: Brilliant. One of the biggest challenges with all outlining tools is the monolithic single column of text. So many ways to use this, yet simple and elegant in execution.

- (2022-02-07) Kristian Voss Bjerre: Are you going to include dragging and dropping nodes from one "window" to the other? That would really set this apart from "open as new tab"

- (2021-10-26) Precious Hamilton-brown: I agree this is a gamechanger! Makes so much sense. I am finding it seems a bit inconsistent whether I can get it to work though. I have chrome open, as well as chrome workflowy app (save as shortcut). When I command click in the chrome windows, it sometimes just opens another tab. When I command click from the chrome workflowy app it opens the tab in the browser. Will definitely persist though as this is crazy helpful. Thank you!!

- (2021-06-07) Ken Walz: Love the idea but can't get it to work. When I go to WF settings, I don't see "More Tools" or "Create Shortcut". When I CMD-click on a WF item, Chrome opens a new tab.
