Install (Local / Unpacked)
- Download or clone this repository (see Repository above).
- Open
chrome://extensions in Chrome or Arc.
- Turn on Developer mode (top right).
- Click Load unpacked and select the project folder.
- Reload Gmail—you’ll see the icon in the toolbar.
After making changes, click Reload on the extension in chrome://extensions.
Usage
- Available anywhere the Gmail toolbar is shown (inbox, search results, etc.).
How It Works
- A content script watches the toolbar (
div[gh="mtb"]) and inserts the button right before the “More” (︙) control.
- Clicking updates only the URL hash to
#settings/filters, letting Gmail’s SPA handle the view change.
Troubleshooting
- Icon not visible: reload Gmail; ensure you’re on a view with the toolbar; temporarily disable other UI-tweaking extensions.
- Position/hover looks off: update to the latest version (alignment and sizing are auto-corrected).
- Still stuck? Please share the current
div[gh="mtb"] subtree (copy from DevTools Elements panel).
