User reviews

I'm giving five stars because I've been using this extension on Chrome for a long time, often multiple times per day, and it's super-useful for me. However, I hope the developer will respond to several user comments that for a while now it sometimes requires several attempts to create a link. It may be because I have a huge number of tabs open. This Chrome extension also works with Edge. The Edge extension by the same name but made by a different developer works OK but it can only make an HTML link, not the other options that this Chrome extension offers like plain text, which is the option I usually use.

Markdownなどの各書式用のURLを作るのに欠かせないです。ずっと利用させていただいています。

A good extension, but not all types of pages support correct HTML links. For example, at the address below, copying in HTML format does not work: http://www.forum.freecommander.com/viewtopic.php?t=775&sid=106b69ba660b7a473953778b6d50e09c&start=330 The "HTML Format" dictionary item is not available on the clipboard.
