⚠️ DEPRECATED ⚠️

Deprecation notice

This extension is no longer actively supported or maintained. You may or may not be able to get it to work in the current state. You are free to fork the extension if you would like to work on it further. The original README of the project is available below.

Why?

The main reason for deprecation is that I am no longer an active user of the extension, however there are numerous other reasons, namely:

• the UCP update broke the extension and it would have to be rewritten to support it
• the crowdfunded internationalization strings have gotten lost due to removal from the Fandom Developers Wiki
• Extensions Manifest V3 has been introduced and is aimed at replacing Manifest V2 (with which this extension was developed), meaning another rewrite would be required
• the built-in editor became better over the years and I personally feel like you no longer have to replace it with a custom solution
