User reviews

Thank you Alec, for taking the time to look into this and adding context menu nesting! it seems to be limited to 3. after that, the extension kinda of breaks. I.e won't save more when you click save. when you go back, entry is not there. Update: 3/16/24 for debugging, can you add a backup and restore option? I could not find the json to try and edit manually or the extension folder. maybe it is just me, but I would like to be able to backup my settings, remove the extension and then restore. topology: 3 list items 3 context menus *-11 entries *-3 entries *-4 entries 12 list items Update: 3/20/24 Wow, Alec, you are the man!!! what a responsive dev! Thank you so much. confirmed working. I will use the support link in the future. 5 stars ***** This is incredibly useful for my purposes and now I can backup my data in case of failures or debugging.

Love being able to configure this to search various different types of sites like Amazon, Youtube, or even my email.
