How can I recover a list of the 250+ sites I was following?? I need to be able to import it into VisualPing. ASAP!

Shame this has died with the removal of WebSQL. I've been able to download & modify the extension to work with localStorage (only a few functions need changing in base.js) without much hassle if anyone from Visualping is interested? The only problem with be needing to move to Manifest v3 in the future. But as it stands, I have this extension fully working without using WebSQL. Previous Review: Still working well for me in 2023. The best thing is the ability to use CSS-style selectors to narr... Show more

I switched from Distill Web Monitor to Page Monitor many years ago. Though I prefer Page Monitor but without better alternative for the time being, now I switched back to Distill Web Monitor. Thank you for provided the convenience for the past so many years. Good bye.

VisualPing Which you offer is Just Useless! Let me tell you why; VisualPing Only Checks 5 Links for free versions, Rest We must PAY, or you can simply click All check button yourself MANUALLY, and this kills all the meaning of extension. More Important, "Pick Element" Function is like joke. It does NOT work at all. Whatever I tried, Pick Element Function failed. Long story short, Page monitor was one of the best. If you close it, thank you for all. But Im not gonna pay any single cent for t... Show more

Hi Artun - be sure that you are on the browser tab of the extension, as there is no limit to the free checks offered there. Would love to hear more specifics on issue you're seeing with checks. Please email us at hello@visualping.io with more detail.

Used this extension for years, even after VisualPing was released. Always preferred PageMonitor's accuracy and simplicity over VisualPing's unintuitive UI and focus on paid features. I especially dislike the lack of custom selectors which leads to a ton of false positives in VisualPing. "Pick Element" does not allow me to set/customize the element selector by ID, class or whatever to be more specific (and thus, more accurate pings), which is the main feature that made me prefer Page Monitor. ...

Hi Eolis - if you are using the default visual selector, I'd suggest trying using the "Pick Element" option. Let us know if you find that more effective in filtering false alerts.

the application that you offer instead visualping is absolutely incomprehensible and unusable, and besides, it’s paid! it works completely differently, I’ve already been struggling with it for a week and I can’t customize it for myself

Hi there - we still offer free checks with alerts in browser in our newer extension, just like this version. Hope you give it a try, and find it just as useful: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/visualping/pemhgklkefakciniebenbfclihhmmfcd

Version 4.0.1 not working. Should we wait for a solution or is it dead?

Hi Dario - we tried our best to make it work, but unfortunately were not successful. However our newer extension offers the same free checks, and is working without issue. Hope you give it a try, and find it just as useful: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/visualping/pemhgklkefakciniebenbfclihhmmfcd

Finally the extension is working again, which makes me very happy. I'm giving a four star rating, as in the past, from time to time the database becomes corrupted and the extension creates a new empty one. Edit: It still is working, even after my browser (Coc Coc) updated. At first it wasn't working after the update, but I discovered that the database had been corrupted yet again, so had lost my list of sites to monitor. When I replaced the database with a backup, it was working fine again. ... Show more
