Show Anchors
Extension Actions
- Live on Store
Allows you to easily see and copy hidden anchors within a webpage.
Ever wanted to copy a hidden anchor in a page and had trouble finding it?
Use this tool to reveal hidden anchors in webpages.
TO USE:
Right click an open webpage, and chose "Show Anchors". A small icon will appear next to the location of each hidden anchor in your current page. Simply click the anchor icon to copy the direct link to your clipboard.
SHORTCUTS:
- Ctrl+Shift+A will toggle anchors on the current tab.
- Alternatively, pressing the "Esc" button will hide the anchor icons on the current tab if they are visible.
CHANGELOG:
Version 1.8 - Squashed a bug that caused the Show Anchors icon to function improperly when hovering/clicking-to-copy.
Version 1.7 - Added ability to see any element with an "id" attribute, not just specifically anchor html elements, as was the case in previous versions
Version 1.6 - Fixed issues with the context menu after Chrome update
Version 1.4 - Anchors are kept inline to prevent the page from scrolling when exposing anchors. Hovering over them brings them to the front to easily copy the link to the clipboard.
PERMISSIONS:
Show Anchors requires access to data on all websites solely for the purpose of adding the icon to the page. No personal or browsing information is stored by this extension.

- It mostly works, but it's quite clumsy. I prefered the "Show #anchors", which works by a simple click at the extension button (instead of having to right click, then navigate, then click again). The other extension is also easier to identify where are the anchors.

- Not user friendly, not configurable.

- Show Anchors extension version 1.7 does not appear to function at all for me in Google Chrome version 80.0.3987.87 (Official Build) (64-bit) on macOS Mojave version 10.14.6 (18G3020). As an alternative, the Display #Anchors extension version 1.4 does work for me in the same browser version.

- Excellent extension. I usually have to dig for anchors myself, and this greatly simplifies creating exact links.

- Doesn't work for me. I right click and select "show anchors" and get a few. I can open same page in Firefox and do show anchors and see dozens. Wish it would work as I use this frequently.

- Works for <a> tags, but not for id attributes, which can equally be used in URLs separated with "#". Would it be possible to also support id attributes? It would be totally awesome, and a unique feature as far as I can tell, if a vertical navigation view could be displayed for headings that have anchors, with indentation according to heading level, like in Word's document structure viewer. Thanks for the extension!

- Much needed. Can't believe an extension like this didn't exist yet. A++++ would download again.
