Save Link in Folder - Screenshots |
Install the extension and enter the options-dialog to set your personal folders:
The following options can be set for each folder individually AND in general:
- Open a "Save As..."-dialog before downloading.
- Open the target folder when the download starts.
- A file-prefix and/or file-suffix which can be added to the filename. (Includung useful variables!)
- Various options in case a duplicate filename exists (SaveAs-Dialog, Auto-Increment, Cancel, Overwrite).
Later on - when accessing the new context-menu in the browser - you have the following options:
Performing a normal click on a folder will use the individual settings.
Holding down the shift-key while clicking on a folder will bypass the individual settings and use the general settings.
This feature gives you the opportunity to decide spontaneously if certain dialogs should pop up (or not) when choosing a folder.
Miscellaneous/Advanced settings:
Especially Linux-users may find it useful to set the executable used for opening the target folder since the standard launch()-method takes no action on their OS.
The rest should be self-explanatory.
Hint: Additional "hidden preferences" can be set using about:config
In addition to the settings above you can use a new toolbar-button:
- open the toolbar-customization-dialog
- drag the new icon into the toolbar
- simply click on the new button to create an index of your set up folders;
or directly choose a folder to browse it within Firefox
Hint: Hold down the "meta-key" (Windows-key, Apple-key, ...) on your keyboard while clicking one of the folders to open a new tab.
And finally... the main-purpose...
Use the new context-menu entry to quickly save files in your folders (see left screenshot);
in addition you also have the opportunity to use your folders when Firefox detects files with an unknown content-type (right screenshot)
