v2.5.0 — Tabbed Popup UX & Direct Support Options
🚀 What's New in v2.5.0
🎨 Modern Tabbed Popup Navigation
- Organized the extension popup into two tabs: Controls (quick toggles, page settings, Nexus link) and Help & Bugs (troubleshooting guide and one-click bug reporter).
- Keeps the interface clean and easy to navigate with smooth animations.
💖 Direct Support & Donation Channels
- Added direct support buttons in the Support panel:
- GitHub Sponsors: github.com/sponsors/thomasthanos
- PayPal: paypal.me/Thomasthanos
- Revolut: revolut.me/thomas2873
- Fully optional — never restricts or locks any extension features.
⚡ Download & Navigation Improvements
- Vortex Tab Safety: Vortex auto-close now shows a countdown notification with a Keep open button so interrupted handoffs can be saved.
- "How does it work?" Guide: Built-in 3-step walkthrough explaining the download process and Nexus sign-in requirements.
- Enhanced Bug Reports: Diagnostic reports now include the exact action context (manual click, automatic trigger, collection run) and session metrics.
- Cloudflare Fallback Toggle: New setting in Page Settings to control whether the extension navigates tabs on verification challenges.
- Performance & Fixes: Reduced navigation polling frequency to 5s on non-mod pages and fixed button binding on archived file lists.
