Hands down it is one of the best extenstion out here in Chrome..!! took me some time to figure out and after some trial and error finally i have all my folders set up. Although i have one thing which i don't know if it is possible or not. For example, let's say i have three folders set up (1 for music, 2nd for installers an executable file and 3rd for Images) now how do i set up a rule where if any of the three extenstion mentioned above fails, it should go to my fourth folder, let's say Random? like SRT files or any random file type?

Awesome tool and I get my folder tidier than ever before. Thanks a lot.
Maybe better if ' help ' contains more about RegExp. Since I've got into trouble in ' *.pdf ' while it should be ' .pdf '. And I got my files in default folder.

Hello guys could you please help me to figure out what should I put into Referrer URL to download something like this
I want to make $referrer:1 = bach_furtra_01_12
Ive found here .+?://([^/]+)/.* but its just refers to site name . Its too complicated for me to figure out what each sign mean. For example if the the site will be .com or .net will it brake Referrer URL code?
Destination path: $date:HH-mm-ss-SSS________$referrer:1__$filename

Pretty good. I just can't figure out how you sort by .ico file type?

Thank you! Whoever made this extension is a lifesaver. Kind of difficult to understand in the beginning but with some more info I was able to work it out!! THANK YOU!

Works as expected and it is easy configurable. I've created a symbolic link in my downloads folder which points to a different drive where I download in separate folders. There is one problem with mime-types though; it doesn't work with types like 'application/epub+zip'. Does it need to be escaped (+)?
EDIT:
Created a workaround by using '\.(epubmobipdf)$' in the FILENAME text field and stopped using the MIME-TYPE field for this rule.

5/5 from me. Very useful and much needed functionality! Chrome, Edge, and Firefox need to implement this natively. This is the second expression-based download-router I tried, and not only does this one work properly as opposed to the previous one but the expression functionality was much more complete.
Downfall is that Chrome & Edge (and possibly Opera as well) only allows extensions to put files in the default Download folder. If you have an NTFS file-system (if you're on Windows odds are you do) you can however get around this by means of using directory junctions (e.g. you put a file in the linked folder and it will be automatically created in the linked folder you created a junction to like a mirror image of anything you do in the linked folders, which can be anywhere else in your storage device(s), not just in the default Chrome & Edge default Download directory for example) This effectively creates a directory that is in more than one location on potentially more than one storage device where any changes you make in any of it's locations are effectively duplicated across all the linked directory locations instantly.
You can use Command-Prompt (cmd.exe) or PowerShell to accomplish the creation of these links from the Downloads folder to elsewhere using "mklink".
Command-line syntax of "mklink" is as follows:
ͯ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯Ì
ị mklink [[/d] [/h] [/j]] link target
Ŀ__________________________________
(Note: I just made the box around it to try and make it look more like it does when you can use proper HTML to display code or syntax of commands and such, hope it doesn't confuse you.)
More information on "mklink" on Microsoft's site:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/administration/windows-commands/mklink
Or you can download a graphical Windows program that make's creating these junctions/symbolic links/etc. as simple as right-clicking a source folder and then selecting a context menu item and then right-clicking and selecting the context menu item on the destination folder to create your junction. Now simply route your downloads to your linked folder in the Chrome/Edge. You may have to use Drop As Hardline Clone instead of Drop As Junction after selecting the source link directory.
To download the Link Shell Extension graphical link tool instead of using "mklink" via command-prompt, go here:

Here is a more thorough guide on using the graphical tool with pictures and all for those who are confused on how to use this properly:

I downloaded into multiple "site" domain-named subfolders but later realized that searching for stuff through so many subfolders could be a hassle. So I was able to download everything into one location with filenames consisting of domain name, custom datetime, and filename. For example: C:\Users\username\Downloads\_MyDownloads\sitename.com_20210119-105358_filename.jpeg. When sorted alphabetically, the _MyDownloads folder is positioned at the top of my screen. Here are the rule settings I used:
Description: Organize by domain name datetime files
Referrer URL: .+?://([^/]+)/.*
Destination path: _Downloads/$referrer:1_$date:YYYYMMDD-HHmmss_$filename
I disabled all other rules.
