Save In… Firefox Add-on

Save In… enhances your downloading experience by adding a context menu that allows you to save various media types (images, videos, audio files, links, selections, pages) directly into user-defined directories, relative to your default download location. This tool provides flexible rules-based download renaming and routing, enabling you to manage your files efficiently.

With the ability to save into dynamically named directories, the add-on simplifies the process of organizing your downloads. You also have the option to save as shortcuts in formats such as .url, .desktop, or .html redirect. Note that you'll need to set up symlinks to navigate directory limitations imposed by the WebExtension API. Remember to configure the add-on properly to avoid silent download failures!

User reviews

I went looking for something like this. The default "save as..." always defaults to the last place I saved something which I too often just hit the enter key on and then go searching for the file. This solves that problem. I'm not using any of the fancy routing/renaming or other features. Just defaulting to Downloads is all I wanted.
