Description from extension meta

Pin or Unpin a tab easily from the keyboard

Image from store Tab Pinner (Keyboard Shortcuts)

Description from store It's annoying to have to right click a tab and choose "Pin Tab," and slows down your browsing workflow. This extension seeks to solve that by adding in a simple key binding for doing just that: Pinning and Unpinning tabs while browsing. The default key binding is Ctrl + Shift + X (or Command + Shift + X on Mac OS X). This extension requires no special permissions and doesn't inject anything into a page, the key binding is configurable from your extensions page so you can bind this to whatever you feel comfortable typing regularly. To edit keybindings click the menu icon in the top left to open the sidebar and select "Keyboard Shortcuts." Or, you can navigate to chrome://extensions/shortcuts with your address bar. Once you've got it set up the way you want to get to pinning those tabs quickly and easily! --- November 27, 2017 Note I've uploaded the source for this extension (extremely small) to Github. If you're interested to see what it takes to make this thing tick check out the "tab_pinner.js" file, if you want to make changes just make a PR with your proposed update. Enjoy! https://github.com/bbuck/tab-pinner --- April 30, 2015 Update! Due to another comment (I guess another will come shortly after I post this update) there is yet another new command now that allows you to PIN all tabs at once (in the current window). Now you can pin/unpin your current tab and Pin/Unpin all tabs of the current window! Hooray! I don't think I'll be willing to add anything more to keep things quite simple; however, if more suggestions do come in and they're not very complex or fit will with what is already done then I will most likely implement them when I can. --- April 24, 2015 Update! Due to comment request (even though it was just one, but I try and take care of you guys) I've added another keyboard shortcut for unpinning all pinned times at once. No other functionality was changed so feel free to use or ignore the new feature!

(2022-06-16) Mardy Brown: Can you set it to where you just click the pin button and it pins the tab you're currently on?

(2022-02-22) Robert Yang: Works well. How do you pin selected tabs? Example: I use Command + Click to select only a few tabs to pin, but it only let's me pin the last one that was selected.

(2022-02-14) Alec: The default keyboard shortcut in the description Ctrl + Shift + X/Command + Shift + X wasn't set up when I downloaded it so I'm not sure when that changed. It wasn't too difficult to set it up again with chrome://extensions/shortcuts though, and I appreciate that it's open source/MIT licensed enough to earn back my star for being miffed about the description being inaccurate. Overall generally just glad this exists - I'm surprised it's not supported in Chrome by default.

(2020-04-09) Nick Maxwell: Exactly what I needed!! I went to Settings, scroll down to On startup - Open specific pages on startup - Added the regular URL's that I go to every time I launch Chrome - then used this tool to simply tab all as soon as it launches. Then I have all my regular pages pinned within seconds. Still have the option to pin/unpin other pages as I'm going. Props man, and also making it public to people that could alter it for future use, kudos!! I'm very happy I found this one!!
