Disappeared from chrome store

[Miosame]

Just noticed your chrome addon disappeared from the store, is there some reason for it? Thanks!

Well, Chrome has this to say today "This extension violates the Chrome Web Store policy.". Hopefully Dave sees this.

Just now I realized that my tabs weren't showing up, so I checked and found that the extension is automatically disabled by Chrome. It says that "This extension violates the Chrome Web Store policy."

But, I'm curious. which policy did it violated?

[Faris999]

@BalrajDhawan I reached to Dave on Twitter to ask if he's aware of the issue, and this is what he said: "Yep! I am. The issue was simply that I had not updated the listing (I didn't see the emails asking me to). I have re-submitted the app. If you need it in the meantime, you can build it yourself from source." https://twitter.com/edave/status/1394152678809214977

@Faris999 thanks for reaching out! I didn't think to check if there's other means to contact dave 🎉

[krisszt]

@Faris999 That was my first thought; the store wanted something from Dave who did not give it in time.

... I wonder how many extensions "go bad" because the creator did not see the email, and people who are using it have no means to reach out to remind them (and to even know the "why").

Please suggest how to build from source. Thanks in advance.

Apologies for the lack of action here. Development is underway. I am almost finished and will let you know when the new version has been submitted for approval.

[dave-elkan]

Apologies. I've been in lock down here which has upset the day to day. Getting on top of it now, so getting back to this. 👍

@dave-elkan any updates? I'm a big fan of this app, but it keeps dissapearing :(

[dave-elkan]

Sorry everyone. My role at work is taking up all of my spare time. I am pretty close to having this completed. I will attempt to get to it this weekend.

Hi! Just checking to see if you're close to completing it yet? I tried to load it as unpacked extension but looks like still missing the manifest.json file

Just curious if there was any progress on getting Chrontabs up and running again. It is a great extension!

Hi Dave, has there been any progress with Chrontabs in the past few months? Their really isn't anything else out there like it
