• (2020-04-14) Athanasios Ladas: Incredible Work! Very good New-Tab Extension you brought to us ;) :) Please Consider following features: -Filters -Different Work Modes (Professional/Private) - Better Reset and Import Settings Management : Example: 1) Reset Button (Reset Settings and Folder Positions) 2) Import Settings including Folder Positions based on the imported settings (thus enabling Personal/Work modes)
• (2020-03-29) n *: This is exactly what I was looking for !
• (2020-03-29) Ranie Santos: Very clean and minimal, no clutter. Completely free and open source (github.com/quodroc/HumbleNewTabPage). If you know CSS you can completely customize and control the appearance.
• (2020-03-15) Dmitriy Ts: Great extension. Thank you
• (2020-02-22) Ashtar Haideri: Needs the option to increase the size of favicons. Waiting for the longest time for this feature!! Otherwise perfect.
• (2020-02-07) Jokus Jodokus: Perfect
• (2020-02-02) Matthew Weston: Exactly what I was looking for. The one change I'd make is the ability to close the options panel by clicking elsewhere on the page, but that's extremely minor. 5/5 would recommend
• (2020-01-17) Frank: 治好了我的精神病
• (2020-01-15) Igor Bochkariov: Simple, blazing fast and everything I need!
• (2019-12-29) Denise Allen: Lean, mean, best thing since sliced bread.
• (2019-12-15) Dylan Bowman: I just adore how visually bare bones and useful this is compared to other custom new tabs. Now I'm no longer forced to show the bookmarks bar to get to bookmarks quickly enough.
• (2019-11-20) Raylee XY: Simple and FAST, I notice no difference in load time compared to the vanilla new tab page. Less is certainly more here — I've made a lovely layout with 4 columns, Courier New in white on a dark grey background. Highly recommend! Thank you developer!
• (2019-11-14) Róbert Toth: hey, thanks for a great extension! There's one small bug/problem that drives me crazy, though :) Whichever option I select in "Open links in" setting, pages from Recently closed list always get opened in their own new tab, so the tab from "Humble New Tab Page" extension remains opened. I have been debugging this a little bit and while I have no idea why this is happening, removing/commenting lines 24-26 in newtab.js—within the "if (node.action)" condition—solves this problem. Is this something that you could correct/implement? Thank you!
• (2019-10-20) _romoney5: i hate it a lot. the new tab page is bland. it also says it can modify my bookmarks. this is horrible >:(
• (2019-08-31) Александр Шестаков: Идеально!
• (2019-08-30) K in KOP: I love the elegance and ability to customize, so for appearance, it gets five stars. Usability: I haven't had it for long, so I can't comment on that with authority. It seems like it will work just fine, but I have yet to see what the major benefit is over the built-in bookmarks manager other than appearance. The three star rating really comes from the fact that I just spent about 20 minutes trying to figure out how to arrange the columns the way I want them. And I literally had to remove this extension from chrome twice because once I made a mistake with the columns I could not find for the life of me figure out how to get it back the way I wanted it. The only way seems to be to remove it from chrome and try again. That's a major flaw. This extension should have the ability to reset to default or to undo the last move. If they just added this simple feature, I would probably give it five stars.
• (2019-08-30) Nate Tippie: Would like option to remove favicon
• (2019-08-26) Greg Allen: HUMBLE = DOES NOT WORK WELL When I open Chrome I get the Humble New Tab homepage as expected but ironically when I click the New Tab + I still get the old Chrome home page and no amount of fiddling with the settings has corrected this error. So I will be removing this inadequate extension and try to find one that works as advertised. Greg
• (2019-07-13) Viktor Boltik: Incredibly simple and customizable.
• (2019-07-07) Sam Ha: Prefect!!!!THANKS!
• (2019-06-06) Thrash: This new tab page is amazing. Since I can use the ctrl-E shortcut key to open up the address bar, I don't need to use a built-in search bar. This new tab loads up VERY fast, which is very helpful for me for browsing, and you even added an option to change the interface using custom CSS! Love what you did, and keep the good work!

Latest issues

• (2020-06-11, v:1.24) am dg: More column options
  Thanks a lot for this extension, it's great! I just have one problem: I would like to have my bookmarks (whichs are saved in one folder within my bookmarks) to be displayed in two or more columns so that I don't have to scroll down to see all my bookmarks. How can I realize this? I don't know anything about json so I can't write the code myself.
• (2020-04-28, v:1.24) Brandon Lockaby: Updated chrome, can no longer choose from all folders
  I noticed that I was somehow on Chrome 70 something so I updated by getting a .deb from Google. My humble new tab is blank, the reason being that not all of my folders are shown as selectable options. I had been using a custom folder named "new tab." Now, I can only choose from Apps, Bookmarks Bar, Other Bookmarks, and Mobile Bookmarks. The folder exists, is there a way to get the extension to see it?
• (2020-03-09, v:1.24) Paul Ellsworth: Extension security
  Given recent news, I'm wondering if anyone has done a "code hardening" review of the code so that non-author malign actor's can't target this extension to cause problems?
• (2019-10-22, v:1.24) Burton Gamble: New (small/easy) features?
  It would be super awesome if you could set the color/spacing/font/size (etc) of folders independently of the contents/links/bookmarks inside of the folders. =)
• (2019-10-13, v:1.24) Scott Smith: Hide bookmarks
  Can you add an option to show/hide the bookmarks panel? I don't ever use that, but do like the frequent, recents, etc. What I would rather have is a "speed dial" panel of perhaps 9 items in a 3x3 grid. Or even just a list of links, as the frequent/recent lists often don't contain the site I want (ie, perhaps an infrequently used but important link.) Also, a search bookmarks (even if the panel isn't shown) would be useful, but I think low priority.
• (2019-08-31, v:1.24) K in KOP: Search function
  This extension would be perfect if it included a way to search bookmarks. Maybe there is way and I just haven't noticed it? A search function seems absolutely essential in a bookmarks manager. I don't understand why there isn't one here. Thank you.
• (2019-07-12, v:1.24) Matthew Thurgood: Windows 10 Pro X64 1903 OS Build 18362.239 - drag and drop + context menus broken
  Hi Thanks for the brilliant extension. I've come across an issue that I thought I should bring to your attention: I recently updated Windows 10 Pro to 1903 and I can no longer drag/drop folders to create new columns or reorder existing ones in Chrome 75.0.3770.100 (latest official build). Also, the right-click context menu only displays two options: Open all links in folder Edit bookmarks I'd be very grateful for any suggestions regarding this issue. Thanks for your support. All the best Matt
• (2019-05-23, v:1.24) Greg Mawson: Wallpaper
  Thank you very much for this extension. Would it be possible to add the option of loading a new tab wallpaper from either a local folder or web service like Unsplash or Bing Daily Wallpapers with the ability to nominate the frequency with which the wallpaper is replaced as well.
• (2019-02-02, v:1.23) Aidan Joyce: Cannot create a 2nd Column
  Either I don't know how to do it. (thought I could right click on page and create a new column) When I do, all I see is "open all links in folder" and "edit bookmarks" I am using Mac OS Mojave. Please let me know if I am doing something wrong or its a little bug. Lovely app keep up the super work.
• (2019-01-25, v:1.23) Will L.: Expand/Collapse Arrow Color
  Hello, I love this extension (so fast!) and I've been using it for years now, but there's one visual customization I'd like to see added: the ability to set the color of the arrows/triangles you click to expand/collapse folders. Other useful customizations for these might be scale, replace with characters (one character represents open, one represents closed e.g. +/- means expand/collapse), or even just use images (maybe not, that doesn't seem super useful, but maybe a few default shapes to choose from). Anyways even the minimum color customization would be greatly appreciated as I have a dark background that makes the arrows difficult to see. Thanks for the extension, Will
• (2019-01-11, v:1.23) PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE
  FIX THE ISSUE WITH THE WEATHER NOT SHOWING ON YOUR EXTENSION.
• (2019-01-08, v:1.23) WEATHER FIX NEEDED ASAP
  Weather has stopped here for over a week now. Please fix asap. Thanks from Ontario, OR, USA
• (2019-01-07, v:1.23) Ondrej Hnatko: Weather doesn't work
