V0.1 makes my Chrome crash… 2.0.181.1
#2 by Vasanth Dharmaraj on May 28, 2009 - 11:08 AM
This should be fixed with the latest dev build. 3.0.182.2.

its downloading to download folder (documents) but not prompting to install. pagerank.crx ….
#6 by Vasanth Dharmaraj on May 29, 2009 - 7:38 AM
Do you have the –-enable-extensions flag?
#7 by Sriraj on May 28, 2009 - 11:13 PM
Working perfectly. And reflecting the latest Google PR update too.
#8 by Vasanth Dharmaraj on May 29, 2009 - 7:38 AM
Great to know that.
#9 by James Hartig on May 29, 2009 - 2:21 PM
Doesn’t work with newest builds. Fails to show up in the bar, but still is shown in chrome://extensions/
#10 by Vasanth Dharmaraj on May 29, 2009 - 2:25 PM
Hmmm… I will check it out.
#11 by James Hartig on May 30, 2009 - 9:48 AM
I’m currently using 3.0.183.0 (17286), the newest build, and still only my gmail extension shows.
#12 by Vasanth Dharmaraj on June 1, 2009 - 12:18 PM
Strange. I am on the same build but can see the extension…
#13 by James Hartig on June 1, 2009 - 7:25 PM
could it be a problem with the gmail extension then? install the gmail extension on http://dev.chromium.org/developers/design-documents/extensions/samples
then look and see if yours is still displayed
thanks for all the help so far
#14 by BIlal Bhatti on May 31, 2009 - 5:15 AM
I have created another beautiful plugin like this. Please do check…

#15 by Vasanth Dharmaraj on June 1, 2009 - 11:55 AM
Nice tool.
#16 by Bobby on June 1, 2009 - 12:40 PM
Um, how the hell do I install this? Your instructions are beyond vague, and when I click on the installer it just opens up Chrome and nothing else. I do not see a new PageRank section or anything.
#17 by Vasanth Dharmaraj on June 1, 2009 - 12:45 PM
You have to start Chrome with the –enable-extensions parameter. Then click on the link to install it. Nothing else needed…
#18 by Vasanth Dharmaraj on June 2, 2009 - 11:16 AM
@ James Hartig:
I deleted all extensions in Chrome. Installed the gmail extension first then the Page Rank extension.
Both of them seem to work as expected. Do you have any other extensions installed like AdSweep?
#19 by James Hartig on June 3, 2009 - 4:42 PM
Nope. I will clear out all the extensions and wipe the extension cache and try again (with the newest build as of now).
#20 by James Hartig on June 3, 2009 - 5:08 PM
I can’t figure out the problem, but when I moved your script tag to the header and added a in the prValue span tag, everything worked fine. Now it seems to be working.
#21 by James Hartig on June 3, 2009 - 5:13 PM
Also, make sure you add escape(baseurl) to the getpr function or Google will return a nasty message and not the pagerank.
#22 by Vasanth Dharmaraj on June 3, 2009 - 7:10 PM
Thanks for the effort I will make the changes too.
#23 by KEViN恺 on June 6, 2009 - 8:12 AM
i have installed this plugin,but theres nothing display on my chrome v183,but my mouse rollover the static bar,it display a long bar which says”Page Rank Checker”,then theres nothing any more.whats the problem?
#24 by Swapnil on June 7, 2009 - 8:07 AM
I’m having same problem (GC ver 3.0.183.1 and OS Widnwos Vista Home Premium SP2)
#25 by James Hartig on June 7, 2009 - 6:20 PM
I had the same problems and I fixed it. I have told Vasanth the required changes to fix it, and he as not yet fixed it.
Goto chrome://extensions/ and install your current page rank extension then install my fixed version here:

#26 by abdullah on June 7, 2009 - 1:05 PM
Thank you for the extension.
I hope Google adds this feature to the Chrome by default!
#27 by Vasanth Dharmaraj on June 8, 2009 - 11:47 AM
Thanks James. I have incorporated your fix into the extension.
#28 by Ed Brancheau on June 10, 2009 - 5:32 PM
I have followed the directions but for some reason when I open the extension with Chrome, it just keeps opening extension in a new tab and downloading it over and over again. If I let it run, I think it would go on indefinitely. Bizarre
#29 by Vasanth Dharmaraj on June 11, 2009 - 3:05 PM
Strange. Looks like the latest Chrome dev release is very very buggy. I will wait for a stable build to check this out.
#30 by Jobs In Nigeria on June 11, 2009 - 9:22 AM
I dont’t know why I can’t download it??
#31 by Vasanth Dharmaraj on June 11, 2009 - 9:24 AM
I am trying to upgrade my blog to Wordpress 2.8. Having some problems with it at the moment.
#32 by Jobs In Nigeria on June 11, 2009 - 9:27 AM
Ok,I will Be waiting, I pray the problem will soon be resolved.
#33 by Vasanth Dharmaraj on June 11, 2009 - 9:26 AM
Downloads should be working now.
#34 by Jobs In Nigeria on June 11, 2009 - 9:28 AM
Ok,it is working.Thanks…
#35 by James Hartig on June 14, 2009 - 1:22 PM
There are some problems with extensions in the latest few builds. I am researching the problem now.
#36 by Martin on June 17, 2009 - 10:28 AM
Hi there,
extension is not working for me…
I am getting error message:
Could not install extension from ‘C:\Users\…\Desktop\pagerank_02.crx’. Bad version number
Chromium version: 3.0.190.0
Build: 18578
Any ideas?
#37 by Martin on June 17, 2009 - 10:30 AM
Maybe it will help: I am using Windows Seven.
#38 by Vasanth Dharmaraj on June 17, 2009 - 10:43 AM
Recent Chrome builds have been buggy. I get the same error. Try right click “Save link as…” then opening the extension from explorer.
#39 by KEViN恺 on June 17, 2009 - 8:59 PM
when updates to 3.0.189.0,Chrome updates that”Implement signature verification for all extensions” check it out http://dev.chromium.org/getting-involved/dev-channel/release-notes
#40 by James Hartig on June 17, 2009 - 9:52 PM
Yes, we will have to wait till they finalize the packing application and the instructions.
#41 by Vasanth Dharmaraj on June 18, 2009 - 8:50 AM
I just repackaged and made available my extensions in the new packaging format. Have fun.
#42 by KEViN恺 on June 18, 2009 - 10:23 AM
Thank you so much! it works now~
#43 by RIcky on June 19, 2009 - 1:10 PM
Could not install extension from ‘pagerank.0.3.crx’. bad version number
#44 by Vasanth Dharmaraj on June 19, 2009 - 1:25 PM
With the current build (3.0.189.0) there is a bug preventing installing extensions by just clicking on the link. You have to download the extension by right clicking the link and choose Save link as… Once downloaded double click on the extension to install it.
#45 by RIcky on June 19, 2009 - 4:00 PM
Thanks. Works now!
I had to upgrade from DEV 2.0 to BETA 3.0 version.
#46 by James Hartig on June 21, 2009 - 7:46 PM
In the newest builds, the pr_checker.html is duplicated, showing “Page Rank: x” twice. Is this a chrome problem?
#47 by James Hartig on June 21, 2009 - 7:48 PM
Nevermind, it seems to be fixed in 18898+ builds.
#48 by Vasanth Dharmaraj on June 21, 2009 - 10:23 PM
Cool
#49 by Girish on June 27, 2009 - 12:19 AM
PageRank relies on the uniquely democratic nature of the web by using its vast link structure as an indicator of an individual page’s value. In essence, Google interprets a link from page A to page B as a vote, by page A, for page B. But, Google looks at more than the sheer volume of votes, or links a page receives; it also analyzes the page that casts the vote. Votes cast by pages that are themselves ‘important’ weigh more heavily and help to make other pages ‘important
#50 by Maarten on July 2, 2009 - 5:46 AM
I have the same problem James Hartig had, the pagerank checker shows up twice.
Also, to get it installed I had to right click the link and open it in a new tab. A direct left click showed ‘couldn’t install extensions, can’t open file’
#51 by Vasanth Dharmaraj on July 2, 2009 - 6:28 AM
Must be something with the new build of Chrome. I will take a look.
#52 by Vasanth Dharmaraj on July 2, 2009 - 8:26 AM
Looks like a bug related to this issue has been fixed. http://src.chromium.org/viewvc/chrome?view=rev&revision=19061. Should be in the next build.
#53 by william on July 8, 2009 - 12:19 PM
do not know how to open chrome with enable extensions. please help. thanks
#54 by Vasanth Dharmaraj on July 8, 2009 - 12:49 PM
Right click the shortcut that launches Chrome. Go to properties. In the Target textbox add –enable-extensions following chrome.exe. Remember to have a space after chrome.exe. Now start Chrome with this shortcut. Extensions should be enabled.
#55 by william on July 8, 2009 - 1:35 PM
Thanks for the quick response. have successfully done this but after downloading nothing happens. Saved the download to different places but does not give me an option to run etc
#56 by william on July 8, 2009 - 1:40 PM
added a space and –enable-extensions after the ” clicked apply then it stayed that way. got an error message all other ways.
#57 by william on July 8, 2009 - 3:31 PM
the downloaded file does not run automatically. How can i get it to work
#58 by Vasanth Dharmaraj on July 8, 2009 - 5:33 PM
Note that there are two dashes each in –enable–extensions. Sorry I put just one earlier.
#59 by william on July 9, 2009 - 1:05 AM
on chrome v 20172. dont know how to get higher no. still not installing automatically.
#60 by Vasanth Dharmaraj on July 9, 2009 - 5:09 AM
You have to be on the dev branch. Use the channel changer to change to dev builds. http://dev.chromium.org/getting-involved/dev-channel/using-the-channel-changer
#61 by Firdaush on July 9, 2009 - 2:10 AM
You may have to try changing the key. when other programs open chrome for mail such as from MSN, it does not open the short cut you have added the –extensions to. It opens it from a ‘key’ location. You will have to change that to make it always work.
#62 by william on July 10, 2009 - 1:18 AM
guys thanks for your patiencee. what does changing the key mean? I have changed to the dev build.
#63 by Vasanth Dharmaraj on July 10, 2009 - 10:50 AM
Don’t worry about the key. Just use –enable–extensions.
