Overview

Link Control - Adjust the color of your previously viewed links.

No more trying to tell the difference between blue and dark-purple at 2 a.m. Easily customize the color of your visited links by selecting from a range of predefined colors or choosing your own custom color. Use the included blocklist to prevent Link Control from running on certain sites, or, if you prefer, use the allowlist to enable Link Control only on certain sites. Good for users who have a tough time with colors or who are color-blind, as you can choose exactly the color you want for your visited and default (non-visited) links. For me, I work a lot at night and have a tough time distinguishing those regular blue links from the purple visited links. It started costing me time so I decided I would make this extension to help out myself and others. # Update - v2.0.2 - 04-16-2024 - Overhaul UI to make it easier to use - Add ability to additionally color the default (non-visited) links - Add allowlist (whitelist) in addition to the existing blocklist (blacklist) - Add additional contrast option # Update - v1.1.0 - 04-06-2019 - Added editing of blacklist. - Added button to add current URL to blacklist. - Adjusted styling.

It worked great until a couple of days ago. Not working as of 24.8.29. 24.9.10 The extension is working again. Makes it easy to tell which links have been visited, and which have not. Great now its working again.

It does exactly what it promises to do. Very good. You can use Blocklist for sites where you want to keep default colors.

You have to 'pin' the extension to the extension area and then you can click on it's icon to find the settings. Working now. Still a great extension. A recent update april 2024 broke my experience for a couple of days, all my purple links became red, but now I got it working again.
