BookmarkUp v1.4.1

A polish release: consistent blue accents, accessibility clean-ups, and the groundwork for a Chrome Web Store launch.

Highlights

• Consistent blue - focus outlines across the popup now use the brand blue instead of the old purple, in light and dark.
• Accessibility polish - the settings toggles, status messages, and labels use more robust, screen-reader-friendly markup.
• Chrome Web Store on the way - the project now has a privacy policy, a promo gallery on the website, and an "Add to Chrome" listing prepared, so BookmarkUp can ship on the Web Store.

No new permissions - this release adds and changes none.

BookmarkUp v1.4.0

Adds an About panel in the popup, and launches the BookmarkUp website.

Highlights

• About panel - an info button in the popup header opens an About view with the current version, plus quick links to the website, source code, and Ko-fi support.
• Website - a new project site here with features, how-it-works, screenshots, install steps, and FAQ, in all 12 languages.

No new permissions - the About panel only reads the extension's own manifest version and opens external links in a new tab.

BookmarkUp v1.3.0

Adds multi-language support - a Language setting with 12 languages and right-to-left layout for Arabic.

Highlights

• Language setting - pick your language in Settings; System follows your browser, or choose one explicitly.
• 12 languages - English, Slovenian, German, French, Spanish, Croatian, Bosnian, Serbian, Russian, Hindi, Arabic, and Chinese.
• Right-to-left - the popup switches to RTL layout for Arabic.
• Localized listing - the store description, toolbar tooltip, and shortcut label follow your browser language too.

Full Changelog: v1.2.1...v1.3.0

BookmarkUp v1.2.1

A polish-and-fixes release - a fresh grouped-card settings look, a new icon, and several navigation fixes.

Highlights

• New settings look - the settings sections are now clean grouped cards, easier to scan.
• New icon - refreshed BookmarkUp logo.
• Back button fixed - opening a bookmark in the current tab (search-engine same-tab, or same-site) no longer drops the previous page from Back.
• Search-engine same-tab on Google - now works reliably; it previously collided with Google's own page and did nothing.
• New-tab reliability - a tab you just opened is no longer mistaken for a bookmark's own tab, so a quick bookmark click opens a new tab as expected.

What's Changed

• Refactor/project structure by @neratmatevz in #6
• Fix/browser back button skips page on sampage by @neratmatevz in #7
• Style/settings section look by @neratmatevz in #8

Full Changelog: v1.2.0...v1.2.1

BookmarkUp v1.2.0

Adds per-tab control over how bookmarks open - a master Bookmark bar switch, per-bookmark overrides, search-engine behavior, and a same-site option.

Highlights

• Bookmark bar functionality - a master on/off switch in Settings to turn the new-tab behavior on or off for your whole bookmarks bar.
• Per bookmark - override that switch for individual bookmarks, so you can keep new-tab on for most and off for a few (or the reverse).
• Search engine behavior - on a search engine (Google, Bing, DuckDuckGo, and more), choose per engine whether bookmarks open in a new tab (default) or the same tab.
• Same-site in current tab - when a bookmark points to the site you're already on, open it in that tab instead of a new one.
• Settings polish - refreshed section styling, spacing, and headings.

No new permissions - reading the current tab's URL (for the search-engine and same-site behaviors) uses the <all_urls> host access the extension already had; nothing new is requested.

What's Changed

• Feat/unmark bookmarks by @neratmatevz in #2
• Feat/per bookmark opt out by @neratmatevz in #3
• Feat/search engine behavior by @neratmatevz in #4
• Feat/same site behavior by @neratmatevz in #5

Full Changelog: v1.1.0...v1.2.0

BookmarkUp v1.1.0

Adds a Settings panel inside the popup, a theme selector, a clean remove-extension flow, and a blue color scheme.

Highlights

• Settings panel - open the ⚙ gear in the popup (Esc/← to go back); collapsible sections.
• Theme - System, Light, or Dark, remembered across sessions.
• Open in background - the background-tab toggle now lives in Settings.
• Delete extension - restores your bookmarks to their original links, clears saved settings, and uninstalls - with a two-step confirm so it can't happen by accident.
• Blue color scheme - toggles and focus borders use the icon's blue; the popup is a touch wider and taller.

No new permissions - removing uses chrome.management.uninstallSelf (exempt from the management permission, so no new warning).

Full Changelog: v1.0.0...v1.1.0

BookmarkUp v1.0.0

The first release of BookmarkUp - open any bookmark in a new tab with a single left click, without losing your place in the tab you're on.

Why

Left-clicking a bookmark normally replaces your current page, losing your scroll position or anything you'd typed. BookmarkUp makes a plain left click open the bookmark in a new tab and leaves your
current tab untouched - no reload, no flicker, unsaved text preserved. Built for laptops and touchpads, where middle-click and Ctrl+click are awkward.

Features

• Left-click a bookmark on the bar → new tab, and your current tab doesn't budge
• Middle-click still works exactly as before
• Toolbar popup with a searchable list of all your bookmarks (Ctrl+Shift+U)
• Background mode to open several bookmarks at once
• Search + keyboard navigation (type to filter, arrows to move, Enter to open)
• Light & dark themes, following your system

Install (Developer Mode - until it's on the Chrome Web Store)

1. Download BookmarkUp-1.0.0.zip below and unzip it.
2. Open chrome://extensions (or brave://extensions).
3. Turn on Developer mode (top-right).
4. Click Load unpacked and select the unzipped folder (the one containing manifest.json).
5. Pin BookmarkUp and start left-clicking your bookmarks.

Works in Chrome, Brave, and other Chromium browsers (version 116+).
