Automatic Redrect on Site Change!
-Shows a notification popup in the top right corner @ Business Manager, asking you if you want to be redirected to the same page as you were before, but in the new selected site. The feature is tested with most of the pages, but it might still have some corner cases which are not handled correctly. You can exclude specific Business Manager Actions to prevent triggering of automatic redirect, when the site is changed. For included pages you will be automatically redirected even if 'Ask before redirection' option is enabled.

The following options are present:
- Upload file area, where you can drop files to upload them all, or left click to upload single file.
- Create new file button
- Create new folder button
- Delete folder/file
- Empty file
- Edit file in the browser
- Zip / Unzip file / folder
- Live Log Reload, - opens the .log file in a new tab. The opened file will be trimmed to show only the last part of the log. If you keep that page opened, the watch for file changes will automatically fetch and append the new log information to the page.
- Open original log version, in case you want to see the log files without the extension interfering
Live edit of files in WebDav
The editor can be used while inside WebDav pages that contain file list tree, and by clicking the Edit icon next to the file that you want to modify.
WebDav Additions / Improvements
-Searching by filename - a text field for quick searching by name. The filtering allows also searching by RegExp when starting with /
-Tagging of entries - Tags are a displayed for the entries which meet some criterion. There are built-in tags based on specific file characteristics such as time of last update, file size, file or directory, etc. There are also custom tags which are based on some RegEx match in filename. New custom tags can be added and customized in options page.
-Filtering by tags - all tags can be used to filter the directory entries as well. Just hover tags header and the popup for tag selection and their corresponded number of entries will be displayed.
-Recent entries - new highlight color for the files which are changed recently. By default the files which are changed within last 5 minutes will be with greenish background (there is also Recent built-in tag for these entries). The time can be configured in options.
-Download icon - Every file and directory have a fancy icon. By clicking the icon of files the file is downloaded.
-Auto refresh / Timer - At the top right corner, it is added a timeout after which the page will be automatically reloaded. If you want to stop the refreshing you can click the timer box which will be changed to time since you are on that page (in order to know how stall is the data). You can configure the timeout and the behavior of the timer in options.
-Local time tooltip - when you hover the time of the file you can see your local time if you are in different time zone than GMT
-Preserving of filters - All selected filters are saved so next time you land on the same WebDav scope (scopes such as Logs, Cartridges, IMPEX, etc.) your filters will be preselected.
-Number of filtered entries - if some of the entries are filtered a message with the number of shown out of total entries will be displayed
Additional Demandware With Ease toolbar in Business Manager, which allows you to skip a few steps and do everything on any page you want. The current implemented toolbar actions are:

- (2023-08-03) Oleksandr Kulychok: Great extension. It is possible to automate extra step in login process? Last time I see the window with 2 buttons: "Link to salesforce account" and "Login with your account maganer account". It is really annoying extra window from SF

- (2022-04-08) Colby Gatte: Great extension, been using it for years and it's saved me so much time. The only (minor) thing that has been bugging me recently is the auto-focus on the "Search with ease..." bar. I've been using a Vim keybindings extension with Chrome, so every page load, I have to press "esc" first to be able to navigate the page with the Vim keybindings. If I hide the "Search with ease..." bar, the auto-focus is no longer an issue, but then the ctrl-s shortcut (used to focus on the "Search with ease..." input) doesn't work. I know this is minor thing, but having a toggle to turn off the auto-focus would be perfect, so I could still access the input with the ctrl-s shortcut, and it wouldn't mess with the Vim keybindings.
- (2022-02-18) Alexis Perelgritz: A huge time saver, with tons of enhancements and shortcuts to make your Salesforce B2C Commerce (aka Demandware) much easier! And the developers are very quick to update the extension to work with the new Business Manager UI refresh.

- (2019-04-05) Felipe Spengler: I love this extension, it's very useful. But the decision to split the SB's groups into tabs on version 2.0 and not giving us an option to keep it as one single list is bad UX. Now I need to do unnecessary clicks to access the other groups, or I'll just ditch groups all together. Please add an option to show SB's as a single list instead of using tabs.
