OneTab Reborn

OneTab Reborn is a remake of the original OneTab extension to have a more modern appearance.

General Info

  • Current Version: 0.3.1.1 Beta
  • Dev Status: Active!

Announcements

  • Update (21/08/22): The development of OneTab Reborn has continued as I have found some extra time and motivation to go through the obscure JS files and understand how they work. Since the Devs of the original OneTab extension have added native dark mode support in the latest version, OneTab Reborn will now be primarily focussed on UI alterations bringing a fresh coat of paint to the original OneTab extension. I don't have a release date planned for 0.3, but expect it sometime next month as I work on finalising the new UI changes.

  • Update (20/04/22): Due to how complex and cryptic the original OneTab JS files are as well as Uni taking priority, I have decided to put the development of OneTab Reborn on hold until I get the time to rework the JS files.

Compatibility

  • OneTab Reborn is compatible with OneTab URLs so you can easily move your existing URLs to OneTab Reborn through the Import/Export page.

  • OneTab Reborn can work alongside OneTab although it is recommended to uninstall OneTab when you have finished setting up OneTab Reborn. As of v0.3.1, it is no longer possible to have OneTab installed alongside OneTab Reborn. See the release notes for v0.3.1 for more info.

How to install OneTab Reborn

  1. Head to the Releases page here and download the latest version available.

  2. Once downloaded extract OneTab-Reborn-main.zip to a directory where it most likely won't be moved or accidently deleted.

  3. Open your chromium browser and navigate to your browser's extensions page or by entering the following address: chrome://extensions/

  4. Enable Developer mode if not already enabled

  5. Select Load unpacked and navigate to the directory where you extracted OneTab-Reborn-main.

  6. Open the main folder and any subfolders until you see the following folders:

  • _locales
  • fonts
  • images

  1. Click Select Folder and OneTab Reborn should be successfully installed.

  2. If you can't see OneTab Reborn in the extensions toolbar, make sure it isn't hidden in the menu.

How to update OneTab Reborn

  1. Make sure you backup/export your current OneTab Reborn tabs as updating will reset OneTab Reborn.

  2. Uninstall OneTab Reborn from Chrome/Edge and delete the folder where you initially extracted OneTab Reborn (this is just a precaution as not doing so might cause multiple versions of OneTab Reborn to be installed and conflict with one another).

  3. Follow the same steps under How to install OneTab Reborn
