Hi-

I'd recommend you follow the steps listed at:

https://developer.chrome.com/webstore/publish

Also, https://clients2.google.com/service/update2/crx is the update url for items hosted in the webstore, so it's expected to see that (but you shouldn't have to have any update_url in the manifest.json you upload to the webstore; the webstore will automatically add that during the publishing step).

Hey everyone, 

Actually, I am very new at chromium project, I start with editing an old extension and add a new one. So, I published my own version of the extension and I got the ID extension from google webstore and replace with old one in source code. but when I launch the chromium it got the old version of extension. I tried to find If there is old ID extension some where in code but I couldn't find it.  finally I realize that It updates from https://clients2.google.com/service/update2/crx instead of webstore. I would appreciate if you have a solution for it. 
Thank you

Thank you for the links, but I did follow the steps in the list but the source code didn't take the new version!

[moving chromium-dev to bcc again, as this really isn't an issue that is on-topic for that mailing list]

Can you explain in more detail what you mean by "... but the source code didn't take the new version ... "? 

I assume that you got as far as creating a zip file with your source - when you then tried uploading that to the webstore, did it show you an error message? Can you include a screenshot of that? Also, can you send a copy of the .zip file you were attempting to upload?
