Thank you for creating such an extension, I use it regularly. I give you 5 stars. But I would like you to fix one small but significant error. The extension is pass relative paths. In other words: /es/page.html = https://example.com/es/page.html. There should only be absolute paths. It says so in the google documentation.

Very useful to check for the existence of hreflang return-tags. Works well with html hreflang-tag implementation. I could definitely see this extension extended with more hreflang features. /Kristian Svensson (Sr Technical SEO)
