Quick Linker

Quickly navigate to regularly accessed websites using keyword shortcuts.

Quickly link shortcuts to websites 'yt' → 'https://youtube.com'

QuickLinker is designed to speed up your browsing by mapping a shortcut to a web URL, much like Firefox's shortcuts for favourites.

Shortcuts are activated by typing the extension keyword, 'gl', then typing your keyword - e.g. 'yt', hitting enter and being taken straight to the linked URL - 'YouTube.com'

Keywords can be added, edited, or removed from the extension options page (in many colours). If you're switching browsers there's an import/export feature to help make that process as simple as possible.

If you enjoy the tool and want to support its maintenance, there's a 'buymeacoffee' link in the options page.

Thanks QL

Extension safety

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Quick Linker requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Browser Add-ons, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Quick Linker is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
