2023-10-06 | Roger Domuch | doesn't tell you how to select the webpage that you want it to load | ||
2023-06-12 | Adelscott | I wanted to keep the chrome://newtab feature with my 10 prefered urls showing under the search field. and I wanted to focus the search field (and not the address bar). I guess it's not possible to have both with this extension .. | ||

2021-05-01 | Ivan | Great extension, especially since Chrome doesn't let you set a different new tab page. I wanted to make a custom startpage for Chrome but Chrome doesn't let you do that. The closest thing to that is setting a website that will open on startup, but then when you click new tab it goes to the Chrome new tab. | ||
2021-02-23 | Ryan Martineau | Does what it says on the tin! This is great, much faster and effective than other options. The override method is better than the redirect method. | ||
