This is what I've been looking for for a very long time. I've long liked Safari's ability to save a page as a Webarchive file, but didn't like that it was a proprietary format. Saving via Firefox was okay, but clunky with the way it saves all the files and graphics separately. SingleFile is great, saving everything as a single HTML file. What is this magic where they can include the graphics invisibly in the file? I can still edit the HTML to remove undesirable stuff without breaking the saved file. This extension is so incredibly useful that I hope it's never abandoned.

Exactly what I'm looking for

La qualité de ce module va au-delà de mes espérances. Presque tout y est, et en tout cas l'essentiel, ce qui est clairement l'objectif de ce type d'add-on. Très utile pour les recherches académiques, ou l'archivage pour la gestion administrative, p. ex. les consommateurs face aux CG fluctuantes des commerçants.

En revanche, j'ai l'impression qu'il n'est pas aisément possible d'annoter un fichier HTML SingleFile après l'avoir sauvegardé (i. e. pour y apporter une modification ou une note plus tard). Ce qui est dommage vu qu'on ne pense pas forcément à tout noter au moment de sauvegarder une page.

I click on the save icon, and it seems to be doing something, but then nothing, I get no question where to save the page.
As I don't even know what format the page is saved with, I don't even know what search for.
This application needs some real improvements, before becoming useful.
1. specify what file format will be used for the saved page.
2. add a requester so you can specify the essential "where" to save the page.

For now I will uninstall this app, as it doesn't seem useful.

However, I'm prepared to test it again, when it has become working, that is criteria #1 and #2 are fulfilled,

When #1 and #2 are fulfilled, please notify me at

and I'll test it again.

Ziemlich schräg, was dieses Add-on beispielsweise auf Artikelseiten bei Zeit Online veranstaltet. Anstatt die offene Seite in irgendeiner Form zu speichern, schickt einen dieses Add-on auf die Startseite und speichert dann diese.

So gesehen also ein Tool, dass zumindest auf der oben genannten Seite nicht das macht, was es verspricht, sondern irgend etwas völlig sinnloses. Also weiterhin Artikel als pdf drucken, bevor sie hinter einer Bezahlschranke verschwinden.

Zudem scheint der Entwickler auch kein wirklich netter Mensch zu sein. Die Reife eines Menschen erkennt man nicht selten daran, wie er/sie mit Kritik oder negativem Feedback umgeht.

Might be one of the best extensions I've ever installed. Works great.

I'm using this to solve two problems:

1. "I looked this up once, where was that? What did I search for? Can I find it in my history?"
2. "I should re-read this for the next few weeks/months to reinforce what I learned."
3. "It would be great to capture the Reddit/HackerNews discussion thread along with this article."

Oh that's three. I lied. Oops. :)

My filename template is {visit-year-utc}/{visit-month-utc}/{datetime-iso}-{page-title}.html. This lets me easily identify pages from the previous month, which I then can review and update as needed. Generally I find things through Reddit or HackerNews, so I annotate the page with the post URL. That context comes in handy.

Would be nice to be able to save pages to a custom path in the filesystem. Tags would be a useful addition as well, though it's pretty easy to just do a search in the filesystem for relevant content.

Great addon! I'm just one much-needed improvement away from sliding this into the five-star category. I used to use Save Page WE because it had what I needed, but eventually I came to realize that SingleFile was actually a better addon than Save Page ... EXCEPT for one, small, almost trivial feature: when I save to html with Save Page, I can load the html file, right-click on the page for the menu, and then click "View Saved Page Info". A popup window has this info about the saved html page:
page url:
page title:
saved date:
saved state:
saved by:
comments:
and the option to open the actual page URL
If this one featured was incorporated into SingleFile, it would be five-star, no question (and I might even consider a donation!)
Please, gildas, can you do something along these lines to make your addon THE BEST? Thank you (for the addon as it stands, and for the eventual update that will have this one feature in it :) )

I do not recommend that anyone waste time installing this broken add-on.

This add-on will happily save any url as an html archive, even if it has nothing to do with html. For instance, if you save a url that's a pdf, or text file, or music file, or movie, or anything else, it gets saved as an html archive.

Maybe I'm missing something, but wouldn't just about any user or programmer notice this flaw within the first minute or so of using this? And wouldn't a programmer normally test the file type, or extension, before mindlessly saving as an html file?

Again, am I missing something? I don't know what to make of this, so can't really give it a rating, so I gave it the lowest possible score, which is 1 star.

Wonderful, but not working in firefox 56.0.2, so i have to install older version 1.88.66
