well maybe the web site can hide it's contents and display a message to say the plugin is required... the plugin can jsut show the contents of the site... may require a div tag around the whole page though lol

That's not what I want to do - I want to create a web-domain which only works if they are using my plugin, which
1) Saves me from having to pay
2) Leaves me with a perfect workspace

in the manifest.json file i put

Code:

{
  "name": "Test",
  "description": "test thing",
  "version": "1",
  "app": {
    "launch": {
      "local_path": "index.html"
    }
  },
  "icons": {
    "128": "icon.png"
  },
  "permissions": [
    "unlimitedStorage",
    "notifications"
  ]
}

... just change index.html to the file name... also, PHP won't work with this unless it is hosted

I saw all that.  but i wanted to know what to type in the URL bar?

oh right... first... go to chrome://extensions and in the developer mode thing, click the arrow next the the extension and copy the ID and then go to chrome-extension://ID/index.html... for me it was chrome-extension://hddkgibikcampbdcmgkoaiobegelpdea/index.html

EDIT: ... also a much easier way is to open a new tab and select the app from that page

*realises he didn't edit the post and created a new post instead*

   I thought you meant the extension thing, wasn't sure.   
I want to use a customised URL.  I'll see if I can work on Magnies idea, because I do have a host.  I just wanted to create a URL that was my choice. 

Thanks anyway!
