Server Switcher for Google Chrome™
Description from store

Server Switcher allows you to switch between pages on a production website and a development version with a single click. If you develop websites and frequently find yourself wanting to switch to the development/production version of the page you're on, this addon is for you.

It is a port of the excellent Server Switcher addon for Firefox, which I had used for a long time before switching to Chrome. The Firefox addon can be found at http://hermann.czedik.net/projekte/switcher/

Note about multiple servers - I've had a number of requests in the reviews and bad reviews because I only support two servers per profile. I have no plans to change this - my extension is for a quick switch between live/dev. Adding more servers requires either a dropdown (2 clicks) or multiple icons, neither of which are not what I intended. If you need support for multiple servers per profile, I suggest you try multiswitch, rather than leaving a bad review saying that my extension doesn't do what it's not intended to do!

Source code for the extension can be found at https://github.com/richardlawley/server-switcher

Great idea, but useless since it only allows two domains in every profile.

Thanks, Richard! I was in the same boat as you. I hope you'll give this extension a nice little update soon considering it's been a couple years. :)

Excellent extension. Thank you! On the note of localhost and similar addresses, those reviews were made a long time ago and this extension does work with addresses like that.

Helpful, but wish we had 3-8 domains per domain set rather than just 2.
