I can not drag a new link to the sidebar if there has opened a webpage. (surely I can drag a link to the navigation bar then open the new page) but it will be good to open the new link when drag a link on to the exsited webpage.

Hi T U, Thank you for your 4 star rating! And for using the FREE and Open-Source Page Sidebar Chrome extension. If a web page is open in the side panel and you drag a link to it, make sure to drop the link onto the top navigation bar (= from the Page Sidebar where you see the input box and go button). This will open the link in the Page Sidebar panel. If you have any further questions, do not hesitate to contact me at https://www.stefanvd.net/support I am happy to help you. Thanks

Hi Marc Spiro, Sorry you have this bad experience and that is why you rated 1 star. Have you tried to restart your web browser? The home button will bring you to my default drag/drop page. However, you can customize it to your website URL. See in the Page Sidebar Options page. Please do not use the review page as a support forum. If you have an issue or find bug, use my contact form. I am here to help you at https://www.stefanvd.net/support Thanks,
