Its a great extension, and i find real potential in this! I use the "Black Menu for Google" extension too, but I find one thing missing in this one, that you do find in the black menu for google, that is, there is an option to assign keyboard shortcuts for navigation through the different tabs provided in the extension pop-out menu (moving between sections like 'Wikipedia, Wikitionary, Wikiquotes, etc).The shortcuts could be assigned from the chrome extension shortcuts menu for black menu for google, i dont find the same for this one, other than the general shortcut to activate the extension... For people who use their keyboards a lot for navigation, that would be really helpful, so dear dev, if youre reading this, first, thanks for these great extensions :), second, please add the option to assigh more keyboard shortcuts, like the one i mentioned above.. Thanks for your time!

I love this extension, but I can't download the Google version of Black Menu, it keeps telling me, " Package is invalid. Details: 'Name of a key "cj_i18n_#####" is invalid. Only ASCII [a-z], [A-Z], [0-9] and "_" are allowed.'. "

Perfect, but please, the extension does not work if the extension Wikiwand is installed. Could you solve this? Thank you.

Very useful extension but almost all options (such as "settings", "login", "edit history", "desktop"...) don't work. It would be nice if the search bar would be selected as soon as the popup is opened (instead of having to select it manually before starting to write). Sometimes it loads slowly.

Something else from Carlos that is so good looking and useful that I feel guilty not paying for it.

As of the most recent update (7-24-15) its fantastic. Faster than previous versions, and the ability to view in its own window and open the same article in a new tab is an awesome feature to have. One of my favorite extensions on chrome.

Totally perfect for everything you need, Black Google and Black Wikipedia. The only thing I want to say is that it would be cool if you allowed locking for the Wikipedia or Google just in case one is doing a report with Wikipedia as help. It's still excellent and the best app to get on Chrome Web Store. Keep being awesome!
