- (2024-12-08) Nabil: Only for English. I wasted a full hour Adding the extensions, reading through GitHub, Downloading the Demo File to build the Anki Card Template, and implementing the whole thing.. Just to realize, it only supports English. Useless for my Dutch study! It is a good extension for the English purpose though. Just has to MENTIONED clearly in the description.
- (2024-11-23) Cuong Ha: Please add these features, I beg you: 1. Choose the anki deck and note type in the configuration. 2. Import directly to anki from the translation popup (using AnkiConnect)
- (2024-10-17) Miron: It's a very cool extension; thanks for the work! However, I really miss the context on the front of the card for the word. Is it possible to add a feature to capture the sentence in which the selected word is located? For example, if I add the word "confident," which is in the sentence "She was in a relaxed, confident mood," then I want to see on the front of my Anki card not just the word "confident," but the word itself and the sentence "She was in a relaxed, *confident* mood" below the word.
- (2024-09-23) Alexandre Van de Pol (Pol): The extension had give me some trouble, but in the end, it worked. Here's what and how: The "4th step" didn't word cause chrome had redirected me to basic extension's homepage. So to access I just "Exported selected" and its done. Read the instruction and pay attention, it should be enough (I had other troubles 'cause I'm me).
- (2024-09-10) Julia Tai: I like this plugin but I have some issue while exporting words. I clicked on the button of "export selected" and it showed "Last Export: just now". However, I don't find any files in my downloading folder or anywhere else. Downloading option didn't pop up either.
- (2024-04-30) Lu Tang: Great plugin :) Is it possible to make it MacOS level?
- (2024-04-14) Ahmed Kamal: Best extension , increased my efficiency 1000 times.
