Chrome Now Allows Pop Ups For Websites

One of my largest pet peeves with using Google Chrome in the work place was that there was not an option to allow popups from a webpage.  Each time there was a popup you would have to manually allow it, instead of setting a rule that allowed all popups from a single website.  Apparently I wasn't the only one and now the latest stable version of Chrome allows for this rule to be set.

How to allow popups in Google chrome.

Allow pop-ups

Sometimes you don't want pop-ups to ever be blocked for a certain site. If that's the case, follow these steps to allow pop-ups:

  1. Visit the site where you want pop-ups to always appear.
  2. Click the Pop-ups Blocked alert at the bottom right-hand corner of the browser tab.
  3. Select Always show pop-ups from (site).

If you want to change this setting for the site at a later point, follow these steps:

  1. Visit the site again.
  2. Click the Manage pop-ups alert at the bottom right-hand corner of the browser tab.
  3. Deselect Always show pop-ups from (site).

Now Chrome becomes  a viable alternative in my work place, where popups are required to view pdf's.  Thanks to the development team Chrome is becoming better and better every day, even now allowing for plugins and addons.  I forsee a day when Chrome gives FireFox a run for it's money, I just hope it doesn't cause hard feelings.

How To Allow Pop Ups In Chrome
FireFox allows you to do it, Internet Explorer allows you to do it, but guess what?  There is no function within Google Chrome to give permission to a website to automatically allow popups.  This means, that every time you try to open an external PDF, login screen, or game on
Chrome gMail Errors
I'm guilty of giving the latest beta release of Google Chrome a go and I'm glad I did.  However, there is one glaring problem when using the Chrome browser with my daily needs, I get an error message when opening gMail.  Ok, maybe that's not the only problem, but one
Does Anyone Still Use Google Chrome?
Oddly enough I'm writing this post using Google Chrome, but only after I put on my french maid outfit and dusted that Chrome icon off. To be honest, since it doesn't offer any quality Add-Ons as of yet, it's fell by the wayside. I'm surprised that Google hasn't
Will Chrome Incognito Kill Affiliates
This is my first post using Google Chrome and first impressions are a little lacking and one feature has me just freaking out.  There is an 'Incognito' feature that provides a safe and secure browsing experience for the user, but it also destroys any cookie's after the window is closed,
Gmail Sticking On Load Screen In Chrome
Google Chrome has refused to open gMail for the past few weeks, however loading in basic html has solved the problem.  This is not my ideal fix and frankly frustrating since Chrome was built by the same folks over at Google who created gMail.  Why can't your products just work
