Im making a website, and i want to link to my chrome webstore user, where all my projects are. Is there any way to do this?
Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be such a public page.
There's "more from this developer" section of an item listing, under "Related" (which you can link to), but it shows only a sampling of your items.

As an end user, I would like to restrict the extensions to run only on certain domains. Like an extension that needs to enhance gmail, to only trigger on mail.google.com.
I am reposting this question from Limit Chrome Extension to certain URLs?
The OP wanted it for extension developer. But as an end user, I wanted this for protecting myself from rouge extension or just to make the page load faster without triggering all the extensions.
I found that the original post had the answer for this at https://stackoverflow.com/a/53315464/1500545
since the OP's need was for developers, I was not highly upvoted. Will post the answer here and accept it.

As a user, with Chrome 71 (or maybe even before) with chrome://flags/#extension-active-script-permission (you may need to enable User consent for extension scripts flag) allows you to right click extension icons and select "This can read and change site data" then you can choose:
When you click the extension
On current-domain-name.com
On all sites (default)
I'm trying to add a support page right in the extension window but all that I can find is adding a link to another page. I've included some pictures, as I don't know how to really describe the feature.
that's what I have currently, and below is what I want to have-
This is a screenshot of what I have on the dev page, concerning the support feature-
I'm not sure what I need to change, so any help would be appreciated! (Directed here from this chrome forum thread)
Go to https://chrome.google.com/webstore/developer/dashboard
Click "Edit your User Feedback preferences"
Check the "Enable User Feedback for all my apps in Chrome Webstore." box.
Note that neither you nor your users will get notified of new posts made in the webstore support section, so you probably want to direct users to a third party support platform, such as issues on the project's Github repo.
I'm not sure if this is the correct exchange for this questions as I don't think it is explicitly programming related, but I can't think of a better place to ask the question.
I keep seeing this tab for chrome extensions that allows users to ask questions, suggest things or submit problems:
I haven't been able to find anything in the developer dashboard or in documentation about this tab. I know that I can get a support tab with a link by adding a url to the support link field in the project settings, but I can't figure out how to get the functionality shown here.
Go to https://chrome.google.com/webstore/developer/dashboard
Click in the link:
Edit your User Feedback preferences: User Feedback is disabled
And then enable it.
It's the same answer for Where does the Chrome web store "Support" tab come from?, it works for Apps and extensions.
This question already has an answer here:
How are Chrome Extension's weekly users counted? Is it the number of users who have it installed? Or the one's clicking on popup?

Closed 8 years ago.
I am trying to understand the "weekly users" stat for my chrome extension that is available at the developer dashboard.
Another post noted that this is the number of weekly, active users (not installed). But I have not seen a definition of "active".
Our extension is a shopping aid that automatically deploys a toolbar if someone hits the landing page of certain shopping pages. Then, there is an opportunity to interact with it.
In this case, would "active" include: anyone using the chrome browser with the extension installed? or anyone who had the extension activate by visiting a site? or anyone who actually interacted with the extension with a positive click?
My guess, but it's not an authoritative answer, would be "Chrome profiles that requested updates from Web Store".
So, an active user is a Chrome instance that accessed the internet within the time period allowing for an update check, with your extension simply installed.
If you need to track activity within the extension, the preferred method would be Google Analytics event tracking. Tutorial here.
I am working on a search engine project that will point a user to a page from, say Google, and show them where their search terms are in the document. Most of us search Google and know that sometimes you have to CTRL-F to find where that word appeared on the page (especially on long pages). I know some browser plug-ins can help with this - but is there a way to wrap the page in a frame and do it (even if you don't control the site being displayed)?
If not, what browser plug-ins might you recommend that I could customize & brand so the user can accomplish this task? I'm guessing you could also write a Kinitex plug-in or GreaseMonkey script - but I'd prefer to not go any route that a newbie user wouldn't immediately understand.
Thanks in advance for your help!
You can get source code of the page with curl, add javascript function to it and then pass result to the user. Just like server-side GreaseMonkey. :)
In google Chrome try Google Quick Scroll, it does it.
