It works 2 hours only
It works... sometimes. Field for adding is really small, and there should be a button like "add this domain".
For the moment, the extension works as a charm. However, it would be super useful to add a "Run Now" button or alike.
Very useful extension! I really like how it manages my tabs automatically. One suggestion: I hope each feature can have an enable/disable switch, so users can choose which functions to use. This would make it even more flexible and customizable. Thank you!
really great now i can auto close that annoying game website pop up that opens when i download a game off their website
I didn't understand how it works. If i set 100 ms, it works properly, but if I set a bigger value, for example 300000 ms(=5 min), it doesn't work.
Doesn't work anymore: it either closes wrong tab (like neighbour tab) or doesn't close it at all.
It would be nice to say that timeout in ms
Didn't work.
About the "Close Timeout", keep this in mind: the extension asks you to enter a "close timeout" you must enter it in a specific format, which is the millisecond format. and make sure to know that ( 1 second ) equals ( 1000 milliseconds ). so if you want it to be a "3 seconds close timeout", you need to type ( 3000 ) in the 'close timeout' space.
Great work! Does what it says. I finally could remove the Zoom Auto Close Extension and replace it with Tabs auto close, since it also handles notion and all other URLs.
It works - Just like it says on the tin
good bye 2 chaos massive tabs
For some reason, the extension doesn't work when first opening a page that has a matching rule. But when I refresh the page, it does get closed after the specified interval elapses. This bug essentially defeats the whole purpose of having this extension. My config: MacOS 14 (on MacbookPro M2), Chrome 122. I'm trying to close those zoom meeting pages (I've set up the rule as per the 2nd screenshot).
Mostly works as advertised. Bug: Regex "https:\/\/www.notion.so\/native\/(.)*deepLinkOpenNewTab=true(.)*" does not match "https://www.notion.so/native/January-2024-c36fd50e55?deepLinkOpenNewTab=true", but it should. Also, I had to restart MS Edge to get the extension working. Chrome did not require a restart. At the very least, maybe tell users to restart the browser after installing, if the extension isn't working. Last, should document that the timeout is in milliseconds.
Works well to close Zoom "launch meeting" tabs. Use the second screen shot example for details.
So when there was an tab that was opening by itself that was something like this: webextension.org, and then I searched "auto close tab" on google, and found this extension, tested it, and IT WORKED!!! Thank you so much! I was looking everywhere for this!!!!
