Welcome to the Gmail pagination extension wiki!

Introduction on Chrome extension web store

A missing feature in Gmail. Use slider or input page number to do pagination.

Usage:

  1. Set it up New Gmail default UI (Categories on tabs) does not support pagination. Please uncheck some tabs (e.g. social, promotions) in the setting -> configure inbox. You can still access categories in the left menu.
  2. Use slider or input text to navigate
  3. You can turn off this extension in the popup menu activating from the extension icon on Chrome toolbar.

Limitation:

  1. When people do search in Gmail, it is not possible to know how many conversations/emails at the beginning, the workaround way is you still can use slider and input field to try to navigate and find out the final page.

  2. This extension is trying to get the shown "1-50 of 80" text in Gmail. But sometimes this text will not show (e.g. too small window size or using page zoom other than 100%), and the pagination will fail. Please correct the corresponding UI behavior to recover this.

  3. Not support "Basic HTML Gmail version".

Todo list / issues:

  • [refactor] use react internal state instead of using this.xx
  • hide/show button in the shown extension UI.
  • add tooltip
  • load material-font, https://material-ui.com/style/typography/
  • a delicate handle for converting a string to a number (3,555 to 3555) for different languages. Only Hindi, Spanish (Latin America and Caribbean) and Korean are not supported in popular languages., remaining: lt ( Lithuanian), el (Greek), Arabic, iw/he (Hebrew). Publishing to Philippine should be OK (no Tagalog in Gmail list) ref: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decimal_separator
