How it manages to download the php file itself, rather than file php points to?

Does NOT do what it says regarding routing based on website.

Only reason to use this crap and doesn't even work as advertised.

If it does then it doesn't explain how to do so at all. Would give zero stars if possible.

I like this a lot, especially since it's the only one of the genre I've found that generate the context menu and correctly save an image from a link. However, since I don't want or need to use sub-dirs, it' still adding an extra step since I have to click the save in context menu and then a second click on the first item int he sub menu.

Any chance you can add an option to skip the sub-menu? Ie just save to default directory without having to go to second level menu. If so, this would get a five.

Thanks for the extension, it is fantastic, however since I have more than 500 folders and subfolders and writing a line for each one with its submenus is exhausting, I would like if you can make it recognize them all at once. Thanks for your attention.
Gracias por la extension, es fantastica, sin embargo ya que yo tengo mas de 500 carpetas y subcarpetas y escribir una linea para cada una con sus submenus es agotador, me gustaria si se puede hacer que las reconozca todas de una sola vez. Gracias por tu atencion

Excellent add-on for people who save a lot of images frequently. Initially I had trouble getting Symlinks to work but I solved that issue by downloading Link Shell Extension (https://schinagl.priv.at/nt/hardlinkshellext/linkshellextension.html) and creating Symlinks that way.

This could be a 5 star extension, it is the best available for what it does. I do however wish I could manipulate more than 1 variable for the regex captures, for example to combine part of the :pagetitle: and part of the :pageurl: into a single filename. Currently it only works with one or the other, unless you don't customize the variable and take the whole mess to create one giant filename. Alternatively a regex replace option could offer the cleanup needed prior to saving. Also, if this extension could be triggered via javascript or an extension that would be amazing, would love to be able to use hotkeys to pass a resource url to Save-In... for acquisition.

Making my life so much easier.. but wish I could choose myself how many "last" folders I want, and it would be nice with some tutorials for the advanced settings. Some times I cant read the config options (looks like the text goes white or something).

I saw there was someone saying the rules cant do two things.. it can! But it was a pain to figure out..

Here is one example to add time and url to the filename:


// Add ISO date to filenames
pagedomain: instagram.com
filename: .*
into: :date:_+_:pageurl:_:filename:

// /\(([^()]+)\)/g

// Add ISO date to filenames
filename: .*
into: :date:_:hour:.:minute:.:second:_+_:pagedomain:_:filename:

// Matches images with no dot extension in filename
filename: ^[^\.]+[^\.]{0,5}$
mediatype: image
into: :filename:.jpg

// Matches videos with no dot extension in filename
filename: ^[^\.]+[^\.]{0,5}$
mediatype: video
into: :filename:.mp4

It won't save images with direct urls that don't end in the format type, such as ones from Twitter. Example:
https://pbs.twimg.com/media/D8QhvV_UYAAlvAw?format=jpg&name=orig

Options in preferences disappear in Firefox 67 and hotkeys stop work. But plugin so good!

God, this is just what I needed to save me from the tedium of downloading my favourite images off of sites like tumblr.

I love it.

This is the closest I've found as a replacement for downthemall in FF 57+. Yes I need to prepare symlinks in advance because I typically save to external drive. I do agree with quantum's secure design to keep FF from having the ability to modify the host system but it has crippled almost every webapi download extension. This one suggests the workaround and has enough customization options so that I could mimic (and perhaps even improve) on my previous method with downthemall. The extension has successfully allowed me to take down the last block to upgrading to the latest FF by letting me simply right click to download images or links as conveniently as I used to. My only suggestions for improvement would be to simplify the options page and also have saving links or saving source part of the context menu (instead of having to keep switching them in the options page).

Like most people I was looking for a replacement for Save File To since it stopped working for me even in the legacy version of FF. This is almost but not quite it. I have many deeply nested directories and need to be able to route images to them quickly. Manually typing out everything that needs to go into the context menus isn't feasible. I was hoping that there would be a dynamic drilldown from the context menu itself, which would only require the user to specify the root once, but it doesn't work like that. If you specify C:\images, that's all you get. It doesn't show more submenus under that unless you go to the settings and laboriously add them all.

Going as far as you can and shift-clicking for a dialog then using the "recent" directories works ok, but this extension would be a life-changer if it let you choose subdirectories more dynamically.

Very poor explanation how to set up this addon. Unless you're programmer don't bother downloading it.
