You don't need an extension for that and allow questionable privacy settings like "access to all websites". Just use a bookmarklet (create a new bookmark e.g. in your top bar and add this code as URL):
javascript:location.href='https://archive.is/?run=1&url=%27+encodeURIComponent(document.location)
Other bookmarklet examples (12ft, Google Cache):
javascript:location.href='https://12ft.io/proxy?q=%27+encodeURIComponent(document.location)
javascript:location.href='https://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:%27+location.href;{}
- maliker 4y agoI've been doing this for years but missed the run=1 argument in archive.today to go directly to the latest copy instead of the list of all copies. Thank you!
- dundarious 4y agoarchive.md/newest/<url> works.
- dundarious 4y agoShortcuts are good for this type of functionality as well, and as a bonus, can be used from within apps like Twitter via the share sheet.
- LordDragonfang 4y agoFor any non-Apple-users browsing this comment thread, "Shortcuts" is Apple's visual-scripting automation language for iOS and MacOS. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shortcuts_(app) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shortcuts_(app)
- KMnO4 4y agoShortcuts are actually very underrated since they can run JS on webpages. A lot of things are possible that wouldn’t otherwise be possible on iOS.
- codetrotter 4y agoSounds intriguing. I currently copy the URL of any page I am interested in and then open a new tab, click the favourite for archive.is and then paste the URL and hit save. Then I do the same with web.archive.org/save If shortcuts can make this process faster and require fever steps when I use them, I would like to have a shortcut for each of those two archive sites. Anyone have good shortcut to share for either of the two archive sites? I found some but neither of the ones I tried were quite perfect. The one for Wayback Machine navigated there but did not automatically start the save. The one for archive.is activated reader mode after archiving.
- dundarious 4y agoI would not seek perfection from a Shortcut. A 90% solution is commonly achievable though. I shared an archive.ph one in another comment. As for Reader mode, I think you just need to go to the site again, hit "aA", "Website settings", and disable "Use Reader mode automatically".
- runjake 4y agoYou beat me to it. Personally, I have been using this variant: javascript:location.href = '//archive.ph/newest/' + location.href.split('?')[0];
