Questions

How do I change the extension settings?

You can change the extension settings by opening preferences, switching to the extensions panel, selecting Acidity, and clicking the settings button.

What are matches and how do I use them?

Matches are used for automatically navigating to archived versions of pages depending on the URLs. They can be added in the extension settings. For more information, see 'How do I change the extension settings?'. For more information on the regex syntax for matches, see 'What is the syntax for matches?'.

What is the syntax used for matches?

Matches are JavaScript regexes created using the RegExp class. They are modified to match the entire URL, so surrounding the regex with ^ and $ is not necessary. For more information about regexes, see the MDN documentation on them.
