PRO TIP: search for a link without visiting the web page by right-clicking on the link and searching from the context menu.
A handful of search modes are offered that serve different use cases. The search mode can be set independently for the context menu and the browser toolbar from the extension's options.
Search modes:
• Tab: search for the web page opened in the active tab. This is the default search mode.
• URL: search for a custom page URL.
The URL you select during a search is sent to the requested service, such as the Wayback Machine. Visit the extension's privacy policy for more information.

I tried a few of the options before manually but couldn't find exactly what I was looking for but luckily I came across this extension cuz I completely forgot to check bing cache. The date it was cached was perfect. The reason I was trying this is because a small part of our website broke down and we didn't have any screenshots of how it looked like and the server host which was supposed to do snapshots daily said he can't reverse the changes after the crash. Why doing snapshots if you aren't gonna use them when needed?! We are obviusly gonna change the server host but still. At least now we know how it looked like. |
