Quick links, groups, and dynamic searches
They do more than store URLs: they can also behave like smart shortcuts and searches with parameters.
NexoPad lets you save the current tab, create a manual link, import bookmarks, group several tabs, and launch dynamic searches with selected text or with the domain of the active tab.
That turns the popup, the omnibox, and the context menu into a real operational navigation center.
How to save and organize links
Save the current tab or create a manual link
From the popup you can capture the open URL or type a URL manually if you want to prepare a recurring shortcut.
Fill in name, keyword, and notes
The name helps you find it through search, while the keyword helps you trigger it faster from internal flows.
Assign category and workspace
This is key if you mix personal links with team-shared links.
Enable the context menu option if it helps your flow
Links marked for context appear inside the NexoPad menu when you right-click.
Use save all tabs or create group when it makes sense
This is a fast way to turn a full work session into a reusable set.
Dynamic URL parameters
| Syntax | What it does | Example |
|---|---|---|
%s | Inserts the selected text or the typed query. | https://www.google.com/search?q=%s |
%host% | Inserts the domain of the active tab. | https://builtwith.com/%host% |
url1|url2|url3 | Allows multiple URLs separated by |. | https://internal/1|https://internal/2 |
sys in omnibox | Searches and launches links from the browser bar. | sys support |
Limits and details worth knowing
On Free, the visible limit for personal links is Limited. On Pro and Teams, the personal cap increases to Unlimited items.
Custom folders also have plan limits: 2 on Free, 50 on Pro, and a much broader operational capacity in Teams.
Importing from browser bookmarks is supported, but on Free it can stop once you reach the available personal links limit.
There is an advanced option to force the tab name when opening a link, but that feature is reserved for Pro.
keyword, the context menu, and a URL with %s. That lets you search or open resources without copying and pasting.
