Categories and website rules

Categories are the heart of TabHue. Each one becomes a coloured tab group in Chrome.

How sites are matched

A category lists websites. A site matches if it's that exact address or one of its subdomains, so github.com also matches gist.github.com, but x.com will never match netflix.com.

University and school websites (addresses ending in .edu, .ac.uk, .edu.ng and similar) go to Learning automatically.

Moving a tab by hand

Open TabHue and click the category next to the current tab, then pick another. You can also right-click any page and choose Assign to Category.

A tab you move by hand stays in its new category, even after you restart Chrome. To hand it back to the automatic rules, open the menu again and choose Back to automatic.

Editing a category

Hover a category and click the pencil. You can:

• rename it,
• choose its colour (these are Chrome's own tab group colours, so the dot in TabHue always matches the group),
• decide whether Focus mode parks it.

Your own categories and rules (Pro)

With Pro, click + next to Categories to create as many categories as you like. In the editor, list the websites that belong in it, one per line:

clientsite.com
docs.google.com

From then on, tabs from those sites join the category automatically. Social, Work and Learning can be renamed and edited but not deleted; your own categories can be deleted from the editor.

Your own tab groups are safe

TabHue only manages the groups it creates for your categories. If you make a tab group yourself in Chrome, TabHue leaves it alone.
