Works very well. I especially like the feature that shows you how many times a page has been saved, it helps when exploring old (or very new!) sites to find what I should archive.
The latest update has some new features that would make it easier to archive not only the page itself but also outlinks and more. Unfortunately, no matter which page I go to, it kept giving me the message "Save Failed" even if I can save the page, outlinks, and more on web.archive.org instead.
It now requires a login. They claim to hold privacy to a high standard, but now want personally identifiable information? I understand that to offer a personal archive, that's necessary - but the anonymous option should be permitted (and the default setting). The 'private mode' is also not selectable without diving into settings. Regular user is probably going to forget about it. Do these settings and extension installation compromise incognito mode? I would appreciate a change in the taskbar icon color if the page is unarchived, then I could decide if it should be archived or not. Or announced up-front after clicking the icon - instead of having to go look at the page on archive.org. Would be nice to know if: never archived, archived >1 month ago, archived longer than one day ago, archived today - some sites don't need frequent updating, some change on a minute-by-minute basis. I've seen PDFs with 1000s of snapshots - which are totally un-needed, as the resource has never changed. "it can now [r]ead and change all your data on the websites you visit" - is required in order to seemlessly load and show archived content when a 404 is thrown during a websurfing session. However, for those paranoid people who do not want to give up control, it should be possible to make a clean extension - without such permissions - that allows you to grab the url, and when clicked, check and present the archive.org most-recent version.
Always Login Error
Wayback Machine was ok until last update. Now the extension requires login for some operation, which would be ok. But email and password, which are accepted when logging in at the Wayback Machine-site is not accepted here, so login is impossible. Multiple password reset without change of this behaviour. Does not work any more. It is a pity.
gud
It worked flawlessly and was perfect, but now appears to require one to sign in to save a webpage from within the extension.
It is an amazing tool that bridges the gap between casual web browsing, and more serious/deliberate web archival. As an avid user of the wayback machine, having this tool catch all the pages as I visit them while I don't make more in depth captures is amazing. If you don't have it yet, grab it, and set it to make automatic captures, it will help with preservation a lot.
Good, but I would like it to automatically load the most recent version of a page when met with a 404 message. I don't know if that's already supposed to happen, but it doesn't seem to work on custom 404 pages as far as I can tell.
Worked perfectly fine until recently, now all I get is "save failed." Using save page now on the website still works though.
