Display #Anchors Firefox

Display #Anchors

By: Rob W
Displays anchors for all content in the current web page without breaking the layout.

Features & Capabilities

Display #Anchors is a Chrome extension designed to reveal all invisible anchors on any webpage without disrupting the page's layout. It places markers beside each anchor, allowing users to easily identify and link to specific page sections. The anchored content is highlighted when hovering over the marker, and vice versa, facilitating seamless navigation and link creation.

Key features include a non-intrusive design that avoids layout shifts, hover-based highlights for clarity, customizable anchor labels, toolbar toggling, and a convenient keyboard shortcut (Alt + Shift + A) to enable or disable markers quickly. The extension's source code and support are openly available on GitHub, making it transparent and community-driven.

Is Display #Anchors Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Display #Anchors requires very minimum permissions.
