Brianne Beebe 2025-03-06: I love this extension, but every time I open Chrome, it opens a tab that I don't want. I may end up removing the extension. The convenience is not worth the annoyance of seeing this every time I open Chrome: chrome-extension://cggpkbnlnicoanmphgkkcmidbpdacepn/src/browser_action/thanks.html
Daniel T 2025-01-28: Annoying tab advertisement every time the browser opens. Has not been updated to fix.
Ethan T 2025-01-28: Inserts an annoying splash screen every time you start your browser. Not fixed yet.
Teddy Kincaid 2025-01-15: I seem to be having trouble with the extension. Up until a few months ago, the chrome extension worked like a charm. Now, I'm not able to generate a link for Google docs, sheets, etc. I just get a "Sorry, unable to open the file at this time." screen. I removed from Chrome and then re-installed and am still having issues.
LSS Web 2024-11-10: Thank you for updating! One issue I am running into is thanks to tabs in Google Docs. By default, when the export PDF link is generated, it include the parameter for ?tab=t.0 and that causes an error. Could you remove that parameter or give us the option to choose a version without the parameter? Also, would you consider adding DEMO mode links to this great tool? It is handy to have when you want a view or preview URL of a Google Doc but also want the Outline to be visible. It just requires adding ?rm=demo to the URL.
Sandy Kendell 2024-09-25: Sir Links-a-Lot saves me so much time as an instructional technology specialist. Thank you for updating the extension's permissions so Google doesn't kick you out of the Chrome Web Store and out of our lives!! Sent you some coffee $$ too!
Kevin Marcinko 2024-08-21: Please update this to keep it working! We love this extension and are concerned about the warning showing at the top of the screen.

Alyssa Lane 2020-09-21: I like the feature of forcing a copy, that way students automatically will get a copy.... Kids ask soo often "How do I make a copy?" And this solves this problems :)

Robin Ramp 2017-10-02: I love the quick link/conversion to a PDF. It allows me to share files quickly with those who don't use Google. Excellent for relaying information to parents of my middle school students.
