Edit the Google Chrome error page - google-chrome

I’m developing an intranet kiosk system with screens using Ubuntu and Google Chrome.
When the server is down, naturally the “Ooops! Google Chrome could not...” message is displayed. Is there anyway to edit this page? It doesn’t have to be complicated.

Which is the option in settings to avoid this happening?

The google translator icon disappears from my address bar when I load my website

I need to be able to translate my web application into another language. I enabled the google translate extension in chrome. When I load my company website with chrome the translate icon appears and I can translate the site. I then loaded my secure web application in chrome and the translate icon disappeared. My knowledge on how the translator works with web pages in minimal at best. Any help would be appreciated as I do not know where to begin. Any links to helpful articles on how the translator does its job would also be appreciated
I also had a problem with the google translate (gt) icon disappearing from the right side of the Chrome address bar. I believe I caused the problem myself as I was trying to come up with a way to use it to switch languages quickly using Keyboard Maestro.
I keep 2 Chrome windows open with 2 different gmail accounts, and the gt icon was only missing from one of the windows. I tried many things and couldn't get the gt icon to come back.
Eventually, I was able to fix the problem based on the procedure described on this page, which suggests going to this address: chrome://settings/languages to make sure the Offer to translate pages that aren't in a language you read option is on in the Languages section, as shown in this image:
In my case, the option was already set to on. So I turned it off, logged out of the account associated with that Chrome window, closed that browser window, and when I opened a fresh browser window for that gmail account the gt icon was back.
I'm using Chrome Version 96.0.4664.93 on a MacAir (M1, 2020) running MacOS 12.0.1

Access Google Apps Script editor from Android

I am searching for the answer for a couple of months now.
Any browser redirects to downloading the Google Sheets app, which doesn't have the script editor.
Stack Overflow redirects to a question about running script on Android, which is irrelevant.
Any information is welcome, even if you believe it to be a simple answer to a dumb question
The Google Apps Script editor is not designed to be used on a web browser optimized for mobile devices but some web browsers, i.e. Chrome, have an option to show the desktop version of the web site.
Open your web browser
Set it to open the webpage desktop version
Go to https://script.google.com
Open your script (project) or create a new one

GAE app not displaying in Firefox 23.0.1

I have a small Google App Engine App that I've put in an iframe on a google site and have been running for some time now. I just noticed that the app will not display in Firefox version 23.0.1. I downgraded to Firefox version 22 and the form is visible and working. The form also works current versions of Chrome and Safari. The logs on the app engine dashboard show no error messages. If I open up the app in Firefox 23.0.1 using the link directly to the app, it works just fine.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how I might fix this or troubleshoot further? For now I'm just telling my users to use Chrome.
Thanks, brl8

Does mobile Google Chrome support browser extensions?

Can I create a plugin or an extension for Google Chrome MOBILE (Android Google Chrome)?
If not, can I create an extension for Google Chrome (desktop), which will add a button in Google Chrome bar. This button will open the page in another web browser (in my own web browser), so, this button should launch my own web browser.
Extensions are not supported, see: https://developers.google.com/chrome/mobile/docs/faq .
Specifically:
Does Chrome for Android now support the embedded WebView for a hybrid native/web app?
A Chrome-based WebView is included in Android 4.4 (KitKat) and later. See the WebView overview for details.
Does Chrome for Android support apps and extensions?
Chrome apps and extensions are currently not supported on Chrome for
Android. We have no plans to announce at this time.
Can I write and deploy web apps on Chrome for Android?
Though Chrome apps are not currently supported, we would love to see great interactive web sites accessible by URL.
You can use bookmarklets (javascript code in a bookmark) - this also means they sync across devices.
I have loads - I prefix the name with zzz, so they are eazy to type in to the address bar and show in drop down predictions.
To get them to operate on a page you need to go to the page and then in the address bar type the bookmarklet name - this will cause the bookmarklet to execute in the context of the page.
edit
Just to highlight - for this to work, the bookmarklet name must be typed into the address bar while the page you want to operate in is being displayed - if you go off to select the bookmarklet in some other way the page context gets lost, and the bookmarklet operates on a new empty page.
I use
zzzpocket - send to pocket.
zzztwitter tweet this page
zzzmail email this page
zzzpressthis send this page to wordpress
zzztrello send this page to trello
and more...
and it works in chrome whatever platform I am currently logged on to.
Some extensions like blocksite use the accessibility service API to deploy extension like features to Chrome on Android. Might be worth a look through the play store. Otherwise, Firefox is your best bet, though many extensions don't work on mobile for some reason.

Just use a different browser.
Follow the steps given below to install Chrome extensions on your Android device.
Step 1: Open Google Play Store and download Yandex Browser. Install the browser on your phone.
Step 2: In the URL box of your new browser, open 'chrome.google.com/webstore’ by entering the same in the URL address.
Step 3: Look for the Chrome extension that you want and once you have it, tap on 'Add to Chrome.’
The added Chrome extension will now be automatically added to the Yandex browser.
I imagine that there are not many browsers supporting extension. Indeed, I have been interested in this question for the last year and I only found Dolphin supporting add-ons and other cool features announced few days ago. I want to test it soon.
