Extension summary

UPDATED - Works with 4chan X!

Changes and Fixes:

  • Download continues after deleted images are encountered. Thanks for the tip, Google User.
  • Extension attempts to close new tabs that it has opened.
  • Added support for 4chan X (with default settings).

Click a link to download every image in a 4chan thread.

NOTE: If you have the "Ask where to save each file before downloading" option enabled in Chrome's settings, Chrome will open a "Save As" dialog for every image in the thread, which may cause Chrome to crash. Please consider disabling that option to use this extension, or temporarily disabling it when you wish to download a thread.

It used to work a long time ago but now it just opens up a bunch of tabs, acts like it's downloading them, and then closes them. Nothing happens though. I give this one star, but hopefully it will get fixed somehow, eventually...

Needs support for 4channel.org in addition to 4chan.org. Will update review when this extension is updated.
