This extension lets you quickly navigate to a new URL using the current tab URL as a parameter.
Action popup is by default bound to Alt-R.
If you are in Chrome, you can set keyboard shortcut to open the action popup in chrome://extensions. See https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1303384 for status of this feature in Firefox.
If you are in Firefox and you want tabs opened from this extension to be able to close itself (e.g. Pinboard page to add bookmark), set dom.allow_scripts_to_close_windows to true in about:config.
Keyboard navigation in action popup:
- Enter in the filter field jumps to the first match.
- Enter (or primary mouse button) on a match opens the URL in current or new foreground tab depending on the item configuration.
- Shift-Enter (or middle mouse button) on a match opens the URL in new background tab regardless of the item configuration.
- Down (or j) cycles through matches forward.
- Up (or k) cycles through matches backward.
- Escape on a match jumps back to the filter field.
Extore is a team of professionals who are passionate about creating extensions for web browsers. This devotion also gives us opportunity to appreciate work of other people. We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others. That’s why we’d like to present you our ever-growing list of favourite extensions that have inspired us. Moreover, as you probably have already learned, sometimes struggling for the best brings an end to the good. Talking about add-ons it often turns out that an upgrade is worse then previous version. Also it can become really tricky to get back to the beloved version of your favourite extension. That’s why we’re going to make not only the latest, but all versions of our favourite (and we hope yours too) add-ons available for download. No more compromises, just stick to the version you really like!
