I'm using Advanced Conditions to trigger specific actions on different websites in Chrome, but it is not reliable. **It seems that BTT only checks the active\_website\_url whenever Chrome switches to the foreground** , but not while it remains the foreground app. Is the the case, @Andreas_Hegenberg? Screen recording demo: [https://youtu.be/ILIuzwF5fJE](https://youtu.be/ILIuzwF5fJE) Here are my two separate triggers [using](https://community.folivora.ai/t/add-does-not-contain-to-advanced-trigger-conditions/31080/2?)

My triggers/actions work correctly if I switch to another app and then back to Chrome before triggering. Any ideas? Thanks! ---

@Andreas_Hegenberg is there a way to force BTT to constantly check the active\_website\_url? (Updated screen recording: [https://youtu.be/ILIuzwF5fJE](https://youtu.be/ILIuzwF5fJE)) Currently BTT seems to only check it when Chrome switches to the foreground. For example, to fix a different check interval issue you [told me](https://community.folivora.ai/t/screen-edge-mouse-gestures/18572/21) to run this terminal command: `defaults write com.hegenberg.BetterTouchTool BTTMouseCheckInterval 0.1`. Is there a similar way to fix the check active\_website\_url behavior? ---

Thanks, Andreas! ๐Ÿ˜€ I don't know if that's the problem or not. Why would having many Chrome tabs open cause BTT's active\_website\_url condition to fail? ---

Makes sense, thanks. So maybe the issue _is_ related to the check interval/frequency issue for the active\_website\_url behavior condition? I will test as soon as you add a setting for that. ๐Ÿ˜€ Thanks again. ---

in general BTT relies on a notification from the browser as to when the url changes, but chrome has caused issues in the past here. Iโ€˜m adding a generic way to actively poll CAG properties, it should solve the issue. (Personally I have migrated from Chrome to Safari, and it has been great - battery life has been so much better since) ---

Excellent, thank you, Andreas! I look forward to testing that with Chrome whenever you can release a BTT update. As for switching from Chrome to Safari, I will consider it, especially now that Google is forcing the discontinuation of the Manifest V2 framework for extensions. ---

As you promised, this behaves perfectly in Safari and BTT reads the `active_website_url` correctly. ๐Ÿ‘ However, I'm stuck using Chrome for now and the `active_website_url` BTT condition is still unreliable when I have many tabs open. Do you know if there are any Chrome flags or OS settings I could change to make this more reliable until you're able to add "a generic way to actively poll CAG properties"? Thanks for all the help! ---

Iโ€™ll be back next week, then Iโ€™ll check! I donโ€™t know whether there are any flags that could improve this ;-( ---

sorry not yet! I have tried to reproduce the issue in order to be able to test the solution, but in my case it seems to work fine with chrome. Is it maybe some extension that is interfering?
