Relative Bookmarks

Add relative bookmarks to your browser.

Installation Instructions

• Go to the Chrome Web Store page
• Add it to your browser

Functionality

Relative bookmarks let you navigate to specific parts of URL to navigate to rather than the whole. This behaviour is extremely useful if you have the same page on different hosts.

For example, if you were to own example.com, local.example.com, and test.example.com, if you wanted to bookmark the /about page, you would generally need 3 bookmarks.

With Relative Bookmarks you can just bookmark /about and on whatever website you are on, you will navigate to /about.

Relative Bookmarks also lets you bookmark only the query string of a page, with the ability of mixing and overriding query parameters.
