Super easy to change number of allowed tabs. Function isn't ideal. I hacked it to give an alert rather than randomly close tabs. change this line in the js: // close the leftmost tab that isn't active or the instigator of the last opened tab --unPinnedTabsCount; alert("Over tab limit"); chrome.tabs.query({currentWindow: true, active: true}, function(tab){ // Get the current tab chrome.tabs.remove(tab[0].id); // Remove the tab });
