by scottobob, 4 years agoIf the page being annotated is already a local file, then SingleFile should save back to that file instead of making a new file in the Downloads folder.
This would be useful when re-annotating a file you've already saved.
Edit 1: There is an option "File name > filename conflict resolution" but this provides no way to save to the original file except by renavigating the whole path to the original html source file, and re-specifying the filename.
What I'm asking for is that SingleFile literally saves back to the original source html file (possibly with an overwrite warning for safety, although I would be happier without that).
Edit 2: disabling the option "File name > open the "Save as" dialog to confirm the file name" doesn't affect this problem; the file is still written to the Downloads directory instead of its original location.

Developer response
posted 4 years agoThere is an option for that, see "File name > filename conflict resolution".
Edit 1: I think it's possible by also disabling the option "File name > open the "Save as" dialog to confirm the file name" (this is the default state)
Edit 2: It's technically impossible for an extension to save the file in another folder than the "Downloads" folder or its subfolders.

- Rated 1 out of 5by RichRain, 20 hours agoThere's no app icon visible to me on my screen. So, there's no way for me to use your app.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18702861, 13 days agoI rarely give reviews but this one I must. It worked out of box. Can do things even FireShot can't such as saving the page or portion of it in a single html file! Very useful for saving a website or web page on Internet Archive.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Chiral, 17 days agoОчень полезное расширение и отзывчивый разработчик. А то стандартный инструментарий сохранения страниц уже давно нормально не работает с современным вебом и блокировщиками рекламы. Особенно полезное приложение в условиях, когда всякие уважаемые органы то и дело стремятся модерировать интернет, защищая граждан от информации, например, по починке устаревших серверов (не пытайтесь понять эту серию эвфемизмов на иностранном языке, это бессмысленно :) )
