Extension summary

Replace words in a webpage with a different word. You can use this if you want to hide particular words from children, or if you just want to have a laugh.

When the extension is enabled, all words on a webpage will be checked, and if there is a replacement setup, it will replace those words.

It is easy to use:

  1. Install the extension
  2. Right-click the "R" icon in Chrome and select "Options" (or access options from the extensions page)
  3. Setup word replacements
  4. Reload the page!

You can enable/disable the extension by clicking on the icon, and it will switch between green (on) and red (off).
