- (2025-02-03) karmani arch: This plugin is very useful, but for me it comes with a bug. When I install this plugin, the right click in the search console is disabled. But when I disable this plugin, my problem is solved. I also tested the interference with the rest of Har's plugins. I disabled everything and only this plugin was active, but I had a problem.
