Add-on summary

A popup window is a window without a back/forward button and some websites use popup windows to prevent you from clicking back or forward on their website.

This extension allows you to merge a popup window into your main browser window as a tab.

This allows you to keep your browser session tidy by having only 1 window open and all your websites as tabs inside that window. It also allow gives you access to the back and forward buttons again.

The next time a popup window pops up, a toast notification will slide out asking you whether you want to "Move popup?". Simply click on that toast notification to move the popup window into your main browser window.

You can also click on this extension's toolbar icon at any time to merge all existing popup windows into your main window too.

You can test this extension by going to: https://webbrowsertools.com/popup-blocker/ And launch a few popups and use this extension to merge them into the main window.

素晴らしい機能拡張です。ツールバーがないポップアップウィンドウが嫌いで、ウィンドウが増えてタスクバーにたくさん表示されるのも嫌いなので、この機能拡張が大変重宝しています。ポップアップウィンドウを開くのを抑制するのではなく、機能拡張をクリックするとポップアップウィンドウをメインウィンドウのタブに吸収してくれます。自動ではないので星を一つ減らそうかとも考えましたが、仕様上できないのかもしれないし、満足しているので星5にしました。大感謝。

As the previous.. other reviewer said, it's pretty annoying to get a pop up about the pop up. Can it be set to just open in another tab automatically?

I'd like an option to just always open popups in a new tab, without having to click a notification.
