Where do the backups go? How can I import clippings?
by Hank Stalica, 2024-11-12

Very useful and efficient ! I installed it on both Edge and Chrome. I work for a support desk and use this addon to insert canned responses in French and German. I will for sure "buy some coffees" for the author ;-) !

This was so close to being exactly what I was looking for. But why are page breaks/new lines not recognised when pasting? As it is now, just one long string of text is pasted, even though the text from my saved note are spread over several different lines... Found the setting for page breaks, 5 stars!
