Generate Links for Headers

It's pretty work and easy to use !!!

Truly plug and play! Works great. I like that the link icon only appears after you hover your mouse over the heading. As other reviewers have noted, the extension only generates anchor links if the author of the page properly added an html ID to the heading element.

Works as expected out-of-the-box in an elegant, non-intrusive, single-click manner: you built the right thing, which is the hardest part of software as per https://www.simplethread.com/20-things-ive-learned-in-my-20-years-as-a-software-engineer/ :)

Excellent. Simple design.

Just what I was looking for, as a Support Engineer I have to share product documentations which can be quite long to read, but now I can link the specific section of it and easily share with my customers.

Thanks Denis, glad you found it useful! That's pretty much why I wrote it - makes it much easier to share a particular section of a page with a colleague, assuming the "header" sections actually have IDs assigned to them...

This works great for webpages that are structured correctly and actually use the H2, H3 etc., headings. But for pages that don't use that, instead I guess they use something else, this ext, won't work. For example I looked at a page that has the <h3> tags around text but this ext wasn't showing a link.

An H3 (or other header) tag isn't enough, unfortunately. I have to have an "ID" or "name" attribute to grab on to. If a page has, for example, <H3 ID="this_section">, then I can use that, because typing "https://www.some-site.com/somepage.html#this_section" will jump to that section of the page.
