Extension summary

Adds a right-click menu item "Archive Link" that opens the link destination in https://archive.ph

The https://archive.ph website loads an archived version of the page with an option to refresh the archive or creates an archive of the page when it has not yet done so

Version 0.0.2 adds the ability to click the taskbar icon to open the current page in https://archive.ph ; that taskbar button may be shown or hidden (pinned or unpinned) in the normal way from the browser

Version 0.0.3 opens the new tab in the background

Version 0.0.4 substitutes the more limited permission activeTab for the broader tabs permission found in the preceding versions

Version 0.0.5 makes launching the archive page in the current tab the default action when you click the taskbar icon; with an option (right-click menu, 'options') to revert to the 'new background tab' action as before

User reviews

It instantly loads an archived version if there is any! Either click the icon or rightclick on the link, click 'Archive Link' and it'll either archive it or show you a list or archived versions. Absolutely what you need: simple, clean, easy.
