Howto set Google Chrome Bookmarks with parameters?
Is there a way to set parameters in google chrome bookmarks? I have been using this in Mozilla Firefox for years.
example: A bookmark with URL www.url.de/vserver=%ID. In firefox I typed in to the adress-bar vserver:343 and firefox translated it into the right url: url.de/vserver=343
This would be really timesaving for some workflows.
Solution 1:
chrome://settings/searchEngines
sorry - because it's no bookmarks, it's called omnisearch in Google Chrome.
- Go to
chrome://settings/searchEngines
- On the bottom, type your search tag and URL where parameter =
%s
- Type the tag in the address bar > Press Tab > Type in your parameter (for example,
3434
). - Chrome opens the right URL with the parameter typed in.
Solution 2:
Go to the Chrome >> bookmarks >> bookmarks manager >> add new Add Text
In url, type :
javascript:void(location.href='URL'+window.prompt("Text to be displayed",""));
Solution 3:
I find Rakesh's answer quite interesting but sadly doesn't work when used in a new tab.
One solutions thought is to use a trick seen here :
data:text/html,<script>window.location.href='url' + window.prompt("Text to be displayed","");</script>
