New Tab Problem
-
Hey guys, after updating to the latest 1.8 version, my new tab page is not working, is there a fix for that?
I was using infinity tab page for my new tab pages and now it no longer works.
The new tab page is set to chrome://newtab
still doesnt work
Is there a hot fix?
Thanks -
No I mean chrome, because when I google the problem, some posts on here said make it chrome://newtab but it didnt work for me.
Do you know anything to help me or no? -
@adgj533 There is a workaround. You need to use the extension's ID and the path to its "main" file (usually it's
index.html
) instead ofchrome://newtab
as the default address for new tabs. Take a look at this example for the TabMark extension:chrome-extension://mklfhpmcnamcncipgjdildbffdjdfdol/index.html
That works like a charm. If you should have trouble with re-enabling your extension, just post a link to its Chrome Web Store page and we'll try to help.

@pafflick hey, yeah please help me
this is the tab page I use
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/infinity-new-tab/dbfmnekepjoapopniengjbcpnbljalfg
Thanks for your help
I really appreciate it -
Go to:
Settings --> Tabs --> scroll down to the section "New Tab Page" --> tick the box where you can type stuff --> type or copy paste chrome-extension://dbfmnekepjoapopniengjbcpnbljalfg/index.html --> press enter --> doneThe next new tab that you open up should have your extension in it

@dLeon It works if you set up Vivaldi to startup with specific pages and add the chrome extension URL there.

It shouldnt be this hard to use an extension, the devs should fix this asap -
