Archive Downloader Extension v1.0.2 🚀

This update introduces major functional improvements and security hardening to provide a more reliable experience when archiving from Internet Archive.

✨ New Features & Improvements

  • 👤 User Profile Scanning: You can now scan and download all uploads directly from user profile pages (e.g., archive.org/details/@username). The extension now intelligently resolves user handles to find all public contributions.
  • 🛡️ Security Hardening: Replaced all unsafe DOM manipulations with secure methods to prevent XSS and meet modern browser security standards (AMO/Chrome Web Store compliant).
  • 📈 Global Search Support: Improved the detection logic to handle advanced search queries and diverse Archive.org URL patterns more effectively.
  • ⚙️ Stability & Performance:
    • Exponential Backoff: Implemented a smart retry system for API requests to handle rate limiting and temporary server issues gracefully.
    • Memory Management: Optimized background processes to clear tab data automatically when a tab is closed, reducing memory footprint.
